Cosy eco friendly yurt to relax in nature

Rental description

Raphael Bischoff welcomes you to his yurt (tent) in the middle of Alsace’s rural region. Surrounded by trees and cows, you can rejuvenate yourself in nature. The yurt has space for up to 15 people, ideal for a big family or group vacation in France!

Raphael is a true nature lover. He wants to show his guests how his unconventional lodge fits into the greenery. That same passion for nature and mountainous regions is what he wants to trigger in his visitors. His passion is also reflected in his vocation; he is a skiing instructor, a hiking guide, and a certified youth leader.

His yurt has a rustic, yet charming feel. Guests can walk around barefoot on the insulated floor (kept warm by hemp and cotton wool). In conjunction to the yurt are two wooden huts, one is a bathroom with dry toilets and a solar-powered shower, the other is a well-equipped kitchen. The yurt is available the whole year round due to the wood-burning stove that keeps it warm and cosy during winter.

Sustainability criteria

Raphael has been an active supporter of environmental protection for many years and has constructed his yurt so that visitors can be close to nature. Different steps have been taken so this patch of land is preserved for future generations: solar-powered showers, dry toilets, photovoltaics generating power for the refrigerator and lighting, a compost and a constructed wetland have all been installed for a sustainable holiday.

This holiday offer also caters to the region. Your host works together with farms in the vicinity that provide him with cheese and sausage specialities among other products.
