The Gîte Les Estinnes has been committed to an "eco-responsible" approach since its creation and has decided to formalize this by being, at the end of 2018, eco-labeled "green key".
Our membership will end on 12/31/2022, the overly theoretical criteria only partially corresponding to our approach.
However, the Gîte les Estinnes will maintain the requirements and criteria acquired in the past within the framework of this eco-label.
As the owner of the Gîte les Estinnes, we are committed to ensuring responsible management from an environmental and social point of view, as well as to limiting the impact of our activities on the environment.
Respect for the environment and our social responsibility are essential components of the gîte's missions.
Gîte les Estinnes complies with environmental and social legislation, as well as the requirements that apply in the Walloon Region, but we want to go further.
We monitor water and energy consumption within our establishment, in order to continually improve our infrastructure/equipment and ensure more economical management based on this data.
We are committed to reducing our waste production and limiting our impact on air, water and soil as part of our environmental policy, thanks to an efficient management system.
We raise awareness among our guests so that they contribute to respecting the environment.
Our gîte complies with legislation on town planning and regional development, the rights of local residents and communities, local natural and cultural heritage, the health and quality of life of local residents, as well as access to resources for local people.
We do not sell, exhibit or participate in the trade of endangered or protected species and historical or archaeological objects, unless authorized by law.
Our establishment ensures that its guests are welcomed without any form of discrimination related to disability, social status, nationality, religion or sexual orientation.
Gîte les Estinnes is committed to informing its guests and involving them so that they contribute to the implementation of its environmental and social policy.
Here are some of our commitments and actions to ensure eco-responsible accommodation that combines comfort and respect for nature:
