Suspended from an oak tree 10 metres high, accessible by a staircase and a small monkey bridge, this sequoia hut will appeal to the most adventurous.
The trunk of the tree runs through the hut, offering total immersion in the oak tree that shelters you. Seeing without being seen is the feeling you get from the terrace.

It is open to children aged 15 and over.

The Maya hut is equipped with dry toilets but your key gives you access to a private shower room where you can leave your toiletries.

Breakfast for two is included. Your basket will be attached to the end of the rope at the time of your choice and you will just have to hoist it up to you thanks to the small pulley. You will find inside (per person): coffee, tea or chocolate, fruit juice, organic yoghurt, half a baguette, butter, home-made jam and fruit.

Flo's Ker-Terre is a cob bubble house. Its shape fits perfectly into its environment. The softness of the rounded shapes and the handmade workmanship bring peace and harmony to the interior of the house.
Far from our classic right-angled habitats, the energies can circulate freely. The first bubble houses a small redwood lounge, ideal for breakfast. Take the small tunnel and curl up in the cushions of this cosy and romantic little room. Enjoy the terrace, sit in the sunbeds with a drink and read a good book.

L'écharpe d'Iris is a plant-based textile dyeing workshop created and run by Dorothée Elwart.

The workshop is both a place of creation and a place of transmission. Courses and workshops for the general public are scheduled throughout the year.
Dorothée is a plant dyer and founder of L'écharpe d'Iris, an 80 m2 dyeing workshop set up in the garden of the old Rioux-Martin presbytery, right next to the church.



A historian and Egyptologist with a passion for rituals, nature, the senses and colours, Dorothée likes to work from a sensory anthropology perspective, exploring plant colours through the senses and perceptions.



In this way, Dorothée makes a colourful contribution to our world's quest for a more sensitive and sacred relationship with nature.

She divides her time between creation, research and teaching.

The Romanesque church of Rioux-Martin dates back to the end of the 12th century. Initially dedicated to the Holy Trinity, in the 19th century it was dedicated to Saint Eutrope.
It has a three-tiered arcaded façade, largely inspired by that of Angoulême Cathedral.



Its impressive spire-shaped bell tower, in the Limousin style, is 13 metres high. It was exposed to lightning damage and has been repaired several times.



The monument was classified as a "Monument Historique" in 1875.
