General information

Atmospheric overnight stay in a wooden cocoon, the Pod

Back to basics, but with style. The Pod is a charming semi-circular wooden hut, inspired by the British outdoors. This compact accommodation consists of one cozy space with a comfortable double bed (140x200) and offers the perfect setting for a relaxing stopover or minimalist retreat in nature. Outside on the wooden veranda, there is a garden table with two chairs and two lounge chairs ready for a peaceful breakfast or a sunny moment with a book. The Pod is insulated and radiates simplicity and tranquility, without unnecessary luxury. There is no kitchen or bathroom, and that's exactly what makes this accommodation so pure: sleeping in harmony with nature, with the comfort of a warm, wooden nest.

    A weekend at the Ecôtelia estate: a journey around the world through unique accommodations. A return to nature in a magnificent setting. We received a wonderful welcome from the very professional and friendly staff; we had a wonderful weekend and would love to come back. A big thank you.

    I surprised my kids with this 2-night stay—they were thrilled! We booked a trailer that was perfect for up to 3 people; the natural pool was a big hit (because there are frogs! Way more fun than a regular pool!!) as well as the breakfast delivered in the morning featuring local products. You have to plan ahead for dinner orders since the meal baskets must be ordered 24 hours in advance, and the nearby restaurants were closed (on Wednesday evenings). This getaway in the heart of nature, just an hour from Bordeaux, was a peaceful oasis that allowed us to recharge our batteries, go hiking, and visit nearby castles.

    J’ai fait la surprise de ce séjour de 2 nuits à mes enfants ils étaient ravis ! Nous avons réservé une roulotte idéale pour 3 personnes maxi, la piscine naturelle a été très appréciée (car il y a des grenouilles ! Plus drôle qu’en piscine habituelle !!) ainsi que le petit déjeuner livré le matin avec des produits locaux. Il faut anticiper la commande des dîners car les commandes de paniers se font 24h à l’avance et les restaurants aux alentours étaient fermés (le mercredi soir). Ce séjour en pleine nature a à peine 1h de Bordeaux était une bulle d’oxygène au calme qui a permis de se ressourcer et faire randonnée et visite de château aux alentours.

    A wonderful project with beautiful results. The staff is welcoming.
    A little too expensive for my taste

    Mr. Lapeyronnie.
    I would have loved to leave a positive review... unfortunately, that won't be the case... First of all, we spent one night in a POD—it was like an oven... The small fan wasn’t up to the task, and the tiny patch of dirt that serves as a garden is very bumpy—it’s hard to walk on.
    The POD is surrounded by hedges that are particularly popular with wasps, making it very difficult to eat breakfast.
    And several items were missing from the breakfast we ordered.
    Regarding the bathrooms: there’s almost no water in the shower, and to make matters worse, the water is hot—no cold water to cool off.
    The pool!! It’s very dangerous to get into the accessible area—the rocks are very slippery and there’s algae, which increases the risk of falls. The water is full of sediment and green algae—not very inviting.
    I therefore do not recommend this place to any future vacationers looking for a relaxing getaway...
    Mr. Lapeyronnie. (Stay from August 12 to 13, 2026.)

    Mr lapeyronnie.
    J'aurais bien voulu donner un commentaire favorable.. malheureusement ce ne sera pas le cas.. premièrement nous avons dormis une nuit dans un POD, UN VRAI FOUR.. le petit ventilateur n'es pas adapté, la petite parcelle de terre qui sert de jardin, est assai bosselé pas évident de marcher dessus.
    Le POD est au milieu de haies particulièrement apprécié des guêpes, prendre le petit déjeuner est très compliqué.
    Et il manquait plusieurs choses sur le déjeuner commandé.
    Au sujet des sanitaires : presque pas d'eau dans la douche, et de surcroît l'eau est chaude.. pas d'eau froide pour ce rafraîchir.
    La piscine !! Très dangereuse pour rentrer a l'endroit accessible, pierre très glissantes et algues dangereuse pour les chutes. L'eau est remplie de dépôt et algues vertes pas très accueillantes.
    Je déconseille donc cette endroit, a tout les futurs vacanciers, en quête de repos..
    Mr lapeyronnie. ( séjour du 12 zu 13 août 2026.)

    We loved it. The breakfast was incredible. We loved the Fidgi cabin, and it's right next to the playground. The staff was very friendly. We'll definitely try to come back!
