Autonomous stone eco-lodge: water, energy and wellness
April 2026 · 5 min read
Living in harmony with nature is not a utopian dream—it's a reality you'll experience at our stone eco-lodge dating from 1850. Located in Grand-Vabre, just 8 kilometers from Conques, this ecological refuge embodies sustainable and responsible tourism. Surrounded by 7 hectares of chestnut forest, just two minutes from the Lot river, this accommodation combines authentic architecture with innovative environmental technologies. Natural water purification, composting toilets and energy autonomy: every detail has been designed to minimize your ecological footprint while maximizing comfort and well-being.
Water autonomy: phytopurification in action
Our phytopurification system naturally treats greywater without chemicals or electricity. Plants and microorganisms in the filtering basin purify water before infiltration into the soil. This environmentally-friendly technology ensures ecological wastewater management while creating an aquatic ecosystem beneficial for local wildlife. You thus contribute to preserving the quality of the Lot river, located just steps away from your stay.
Composting toilets: toward complete autonomy
The eco-lodge's composting toilets operate without water or sewer connections. They transform organic matter into fertilizing compost for the surrounding chestnut trees. This ancestral system, revisited by modern ecology, drastically reduces water consumption and offers complete autonomy. Comfortable and hygienic, this alternative proves that ecology and well-being can coexist harmoniously during your green vacation.
A refuge immersed in 7 hectares of chestnut forest
Your accommodation is set within a 7-hectare forest domain where centuries-old chestnut trees reign majestically. This forest creates a temperate, oxygen-rich microclimate ideal for physical and mental well-being. Just two minutes from the Lot river, you can explore preserved gorges and enjoy refreshing swims. Between sylvan hikes and relaxation in nature's heart, each day becomes an opportunity to reconnect with what matters.
