Le Château de l'Epinay, an eco-responsible hotel in the Loire Valley, welcomes its guests in the heart of an exceptional environment. It is an essential place to reconnect with nature and with oneself, thanks to a sustainable approach, numerous retreats and events around well-being, and several nature preservation actions.

As part of our ecological approach, we do our utmost to limit our environmental impact. Ecology is at the heart of our concerns. Between natural swimming pools, permaculture and organic vegetable gardens, pollination, and waste reduction, our ecological transition is our strength to harmonise our actions and respect the planet.

To support this ecological commitment, Château de l'Epinay is now present on the We Go GreenR booking platform and soon on Vaovert. These booking sites bring together eco-responsible accommodation and activities throughout France. We are at a time of sustainable tourism, and as Mélanie MAMBRÉ, founder of Vaovert, would say: "What if France was our most beautiful journey?"

To combine letting go and ecology, Château de l'Epinay was recently selected by the Younder magazine in its article: "Ecological & eco-responsible hotels: the editorial team's favourite addresses" (to be found here). Among many others, we welcome the "Être, vivre, agir" retreats combining well-being, yoga and plant detox, with a complete training course on ecological issues, organised every month at the château from January 2021.
