Our commitment to sustainability

Our Partnership with Clef Verte

Les Castels’ 4- and 5-star campsites care for the environment in partnership with the Clef Verte label.

Les Castels have a real stake in conserving and protecting French natural heritage. That’s why we are working every day to preserve our magnificent natural treasures. We use products that are gentle on the environment and equipment that operates using clean energy.

Campsites participate every day in this eco-responsible approach to ecotourism. During your stay, you’ll also be invited to participate through simple but effective actions like sorting waste or using reusable bags.
33 Castels establishments have already been awarded the Green Key.

A few things our campsites have done to preserve nature:

• Installation of heat pumps for heating the swimming pools
• Installation of thermal solar panels to heat water for the bathroom blocks
• Setting up light sensors for exterior lighting
• Facilities for recycling, composting and compacting waste
• Use of electric vehicles
• Reusable carrier bags in the shops, instead of plastic bags...

 

European Ecolabel 

In addition to being awarded “La Clef Verte” seal of approval, some Castels properties have also received the European Ecolabel. These sites are committed to limiting water and energy use, reducing the amount of waste they generate, favouring renewable resources, and making their guests aware of environmental preservation.

Currently, two Castels properties have been certified by the European Ecolabel:
La Garangeoire and the Château de Poinsouze.
