Surroundings



Wander through the wine village of Sauternes
Sauternes is world-famous for its sweet white wines, but also for its beautiful walking area. The 8 km long ‘petite boucle’ takes you through rolling vineyards and past traditional wineries. Along the way, you’ll enjoy the scents of ripe grapes, atmospheric country lanes, and maybe even a tasting. This walk is light and easy, perfect for a morning or afternoon trip in the sun-drenched hills.


Discover the medieval charm of Villandraut
Just a few kilometers from the domain lies the village of Villandraut, where you will find a beautiful 6 km hiking trail. The route circles the imposing castle and leads you through the charming center and green surroundings. It is an ideal walk for families with children: not too long, little elevation change, and plenty to see and experience along the way. You literally walk through the history of the region.
Explore Lake La Prade
Combine a visit to the lively Saturday morning market of Bazas with a relaxing walk around Lac de la Prade. This 8-kilometer route is just a 10-minute drive from Domaine EcÔtelia and is perfect for a peaceful afternoon with the whole family. You’ll walk a well-marked loop around the lake in about 2.5 hours, where you can spot plenty of birds along the way and enjoy wide views over the water and surrounding fields. Bring a picnic or rest on one of the benches along the path. This walk is ideal for discovering the local flora and fauna and truly unwinding in a peaceful, natural environment.
Climb, jump and play in the adventure park of Bazas
Just a 15-minute drive from Domaine EcÔtelia, you’ll find Parc de Loisirs à Bazas – a true paradise for families packed with action and fun. This adventure park offers climbing courses among the trees, zip lines, bouncy castles, mini golf, and a play area with water and sand. Children from 3 years old can already join in with age-appropriate activities, while older kids (and parents!) can push their limits on the higher courses. The park is beautifully situated in the forest, so you can find some cool shade even on a warm day. Perfect for an afternoon change of pace after a relaxing morning at the estate. Combine it with an ice cream in the center of Bazas and you’ve got a perfect day for the whole family.

A wonderful moment suspended in a large "hut" hoisted high into the trees, as a family. The children were delighted, as were their parents. The games, the welcome, the food... Everything was perfect. Thank you so much!

Magnifique moment suspendu dans une grande "cabane" hissée en haut des arbres, en famille. Les enfants étaient enchantés, tout comme les parents. Les jeux proposés, l'accueil, la restauration... Tout était parfait. Merci !

We called on Enora and Ecotelia for a 50-person seminar last September. Everything went very well. Our client appreciated the quality of the welcome and the calm of the venue, as well as the activities on offer. We look forward to our next event ;-)

We rented the oceania lodge with Nordic bath for 4 (2 adults and 2 children, 4 years and 5 months), and it was a calm and soothing time. Even with children. The space makes you feel alone and close to nature at the same time. The 38° Nordic bath was absolutely brilliant. Thanks again to the staff, who don't hesitate to take you to the parking lot in a small cart. Thanks again

Encore merci au staff, qui hésite pas à vous emmener en voiturette Jusqu’au parking. Encore merci

A place of total disconnection! We stayed in the bubble and it was a moment out of time, with the only sounds being the birds and the wind! It was a very pleasant stay, despite a few mishaps... First of all, there was a leak due to the weather, as it rained non-stop, but the problem was quickly solved by the management. Then there was no coffee in our evening meal basket, even though it was listed on the home page, and finally, at breakfast, our 2 Thermos flasks of hot drinks were missing, so we had to go and get them from the bar. In spite of all this, we had a great stay and would like to thank the estate.

Endroit de déconnexion totale ! Nous avons logés dans la bulle et ce fut un moment hors du temps avec comme seuls bruits les oiseaux et le vent ! Ce séjour a été très agréable malgré quelques mésaventures … Pour commencer il y a avait une fuite dû au temps car il n’a pas arrêter de pleuvoir, mais le problème a vite était résolu par la direction ensuite pas de cafés dans notre panier repas du soir alors que c’est inscrit sur la page d’accueil et pour finir au petit déjeuner il manquait nos 2 Thermos de boissons chaudes que nous avons dû aller rechercher au bar Malgré cela nous avons passer un super séjour et remercions le domaine

1 h from Bordeaux, a superb estate with many unusual accommodations. We stayed in the Riad for 2 days. The place is incredible. We were delighted with the breakfast delivered in a basket in front of the accommodation. The natural pool is crazy. Having a spa in the Riad was a huge plus. So there you have it. Don't hesitate to go!

À 1 h de Bordeaux, superbe domaine avec de nombreux logements insolites. Nous avons séjourné dans le Riad pendant 2 jours. Le lieu est incroyable.

N hésitez pas à y aller!
