• Each new renovation project is now carefully considered, taking into account integration into the landscape, respect for short supply chains etc. For example, Douglas pine was chosen for the renovation of the restaurant terrace in 2012.
• We also initiated a project with the Grands Causses Regional Natural Park to reclassify outdoor areas with the long-term goal of having only local species in our gardens so that the hotel and its gardens blend in perfectly with their environment.
• We encourage our employees to use carpooling to get to work

The hotel occupies a very privileged location, in close proximity to the treasures that abound in the region: the Gorges du Tarn and the Gorges de la Jonte, Templar villages, Roquefort cellars etc.

Many sporting and outdoor activities are also accessible directly from the hotel: hiking, canoeing, rock-climbing, caving. Or just a few kilometres away: paragliding, giant abseiling, rafting, canyoning…

The Grands Causses Regional Natural Park was created in 1995 and covers 93 municipalities in the northeast of the Occitan region, and in the northeast and south of the Aveyron Department. Covering an area of 327,935 hectares, it is the third largest park in France.

The landscape of the Causses, which lie in part within the Park boundaries, was shaped by pastoral activity as was the economy.” In 2011 UNESCO honoured 22 communes in the Park, part of Les Causses and Les Cévennes, by putting them on their World Heritage List for their outstanding universal value as “cultural landscapes of Mediterranean agro-pastoralism”.
