What characterizes an ecological campsite in the Dordogne?

At Slow Village Saint-Cybranet, we want to offer you a slow life experience during your week's vacation, but not only. We're designing an environmentally-friendly holiday in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. To this end, we have made a number of commitments to sustainable development, including the reduction of pollutants and the eco-responsible management of water and energy.

In this sustainable approach, our ecological campsite in the Dordogne chooses ecological solutions for its rentals, restaurant and household products:

  • Renewable energy sources to supply rentals with electricity.
  • Special knobs and taps to save water.
  • Environmentally-friendly cleaning products.
  • A composter on the campsite and a waste sorting system.
  • A restaurant offering local and even organic produce and reusable crockery for takeaways.

Guinguette: a gourmet break in the heart of Périgord

When the sun goes down behind the Perigordian hills and the air becomes milder, the guinguette in our Slow Village lights up softly, ready to welcome happy travelers and curious strollers.
On the wooden terrace, laughter breaks out at the table, to the rhythm of simple, generous dishes inspired by local flavors and the Perigordian terroir.

At our campsite in the Dordogne, the cuisine is local, friendly and unpretentious, just enough to savor the moment, a glass of Bergerac wine in hand, eyes turned towards the surrounding nature and peaceful valleys.

Slow Farm: reconnecting with nature and animals

Here, nature is an everyday companion. At the campsite's educational mini-farm, children and adults discover animal life up close: stroke a goat, feed the chickens or observe the patient work of the bees.
This authentic experience invites you to discover and respect living things, in a peaceful, green setting. A simple, sincere encounter with nature that awakens in everyone the desire to care for the world around us.

Slow Club: cultivating the imagination and slowing down

Reconnecting with nature can be as simple as meeting the curious gaze of a goat or hearing the discreet footsteps of a rabbit in the straw. At the educational mini-farm in our Slow Village Dordogne, young and old alike can discover animal life in a peaceful, authentic setting in the heart of the Périgord Vert.
Observe, feed, learn while having fun... a whole living universe opens up to you, a moment of sharing that is both playful and soothing, to rediscover that essential link with nature and the animal world.
