Eco cottage in the wilderness

Rental description

Welcome to Annick’s eco-gîte. Her wooden cabin is situated in the middle of nature, its large glass front immerses you in the setting and a balcony that spans the entire gite ensures that you can enjoy the southern French sun from dawn until dusk, especially during long summer days.

The gite has two rooms that can accommodate a total of three guests. There is a double bed that can be easily dismantled, and a single bedroom. Guests will have to share the bathroom and kitchen, the latter of which contains a stove with an oven, a washing machine and a dishwasher. Huddle around the classical chimney in the evenings. Musicians, or guests who simply enjoy playing musical instruments can take advantage of the piano and a nearby studio.

Guests are kindly asked to bring along provisions for the entire stay, as the cabin lies very much off the grid. Groceries can be found in Gignac, Lodève and Caylar, each a little more than 20 km from the gite.

Sustainability criteria

Annick is part of the Sans-Espace association, which is promoting renewable energy in and for the local community. She encourages her guests to take advantage of her events and information concerning eco friendly infrastructure, permaculture, or simple ecological measures to preserve the environment.

Only natural wood was used during the cabin’s construction, its exterior walls are naturally insulated by a thick veneer of straw and wood fibres and the interior walls by a coating of lime.
