De l'eau chaude grâce au Soleil !!!
Par Philippe le vendredi 21 mars 2008, 18:00 - Latest News
Nous avons équipé le Gîte et la maison principale d'une installation solaire. Cette dernière permet de faire l'eau chaude sanitaire ainsi qu'un appoint du chauffage central, ce dernier étant assuré par une pompe à chaleur Air/Eau. L'intégration des 10 m2 de panneaux solaires thermique au sein du toit est exemplaire et a fait l'objet d'une visite de FR3 Bretagne en Octobre 2007 sur recommendation de l'ADEME.

Organic Fruit & Veggies are Go!
Par Philippe le mercredi 21 mars 2007, 20:27 - Latest News
For the second year running the veggie patch is looking good and we are now flush with lettuce and raddishes. The spuds, beans, carrots, beetroot, courgettes and pumpkins are also doing well. Meanwhile, in the "Avenue des Fruits", we are looking forward to a bumper crop of apples, cherries, blackcurrants, pears, strawberries, blueberries, redcurrants and raspberries. We hope to be able to offer our clients samples of our crops during their stay, depending on season and production.
