Every purchase and choice reflects our values, respect for the territory, its inhabitants, and the environment.
We prioritise local, durable, and quality purchases to limit environmental impact while supporting the local economy. Our approach applies to furniture, linen, crockery, cleaning products, and raw materials.
We also favour reuse and repair to give objects a second life and avoid waste.
• Local and eco-responsible products
We favour producers and artisans nearby, as well as French or European products made with respect for the environment.
• Reuse and repair
Furniture, crockery, lighting, decoration: we buy and renovate many second-hand items. All repairable equipment is maintained and restored to extend its lifespan.
• Support local economy and know-how
Our partnerships with local artisans and seamstresses allow the production or repair of washable, reusable objects, highlighting local skills.
• Energy and resource management
Green electricity, consumption monitoring, and durable materials for renovations and purchases.
These responsible choices are reflected in everything at Les Terrasses: quality furniture and linen, homemade cleaning products, and partnerships with local artisans and producers.
By staying here, you experience and share our commitment to sustainable and respectful tourism.
