• The vegetable garden is ready! 🌱🌱 Yesterday we went live during our working day and we showed the result of our working week for the first time. The vegetable garden that will provide some food for our breakfasts and dinners this season. In 1 week we cleaned up an collapsed barn and transformed a wilderness into a vegetable garden and wild flower garden and we laid out 3 terraces / sitting areas. We did almost all of this work with materials that we reused after we found them during the clean-up of the zone we created. Old bricks were used to build terrace walls Old roof tiles as patio tiles Trees were used as fence and were ground into path covering and old logs were used as enclosing We did it! 💪 You can see the result in our story! . . . . . . . #upcyling #vegetablegarden #southoffrance #aveyron #gardendesign #permaculture #veggies #gardening #outdoordesign #secretescape #slowtravel #cookingforguests #dronephotography #justthebeginning ##planting #seedstarting #growyourownfood

  • To quarantine or not to quarantine? @Rêve nothing really changes. We are still working very hard to get the new gardens and terraces ready by the end of April. Next we continue with the 'potager'. As from this year most of the veggies and herbs used for breakfast, lunch and dinner will come directly from our own garden. So more photos will follow very soon. 🙃🙃 . . . . #potagergarden #gardening #permaculture #sunshine #lifegoeson #aveyron #aveyronemotion #theoutdoorlifestyle #occitanietourisme

  • This is where it will happen this summer ⛱🎇 The beach is getting a new access path that we can reveal soon. But that's not all. This summer we introduce the soirées plage for our guests. The recipe? A warm summer evening, a nicely set table, an atmospheric lit bridge, feet in the sand and a basket full of tapas dishes. And there is more, we have a whole line of new features almost ready to be revealed 🙂🙃😉 . . . . . . #privatebeach #bridge #ancientbridge #dinneronthebeach #romanticgetaway #secrets #toberevealed #aveyron #tourismeoccitanie #tourismeaveyron #aveyronvivrevrai #dourdou

  • Nope, no way back. De first sunburned face is a fact but I did it. After one week of cleaning the village (Yes, it is quite a lot of work) I planted over a 100 flowerbulbs today. Just be patient for a few weeks now and EVERYTHING will look different. . . . . . . #flowerbulbs #patience #sunburned #slowtravel #tourismeaveyron #aveyron

  • Coincidence?🧐🤔 The pulmonaria is flowering abundant at Rêve. 🌼 It's name is derived from the latin word 'Pulmo' which means lung. This of the significance beween lungs and the spots on the leaves. Or is there more? For centuries this plant was used to defeat ilnesses of the lungs. Not all of it is true, but it's close. The leaves can be used to make tea or to add in a salad, the sweet little flowers can brighten your morning granola (super sweet, tasted it myself) and do work expectorant. striking huh? But there is even more. If all those diseases are defeated this herb is used as one of the ingredients in Vermouth. A delicious aperitief that is off course available on our menu thanks to @vinatera.be . Bless you and cheers! . . . . . #coincidence #mothernature #pulmonariaofficinalis #edibleplants #vermouth #aveyron #aveyrontourisme #slowtravel

  • Thousands, no millions of them 🎋🌷🌼 Standing there as we did our evening walk on the domain. It got us quiet, sadly we are the only ones to enjoy them for now. But Ms nature doesn't mind. Spring it is, no matter what is going on in the rest of the world. . . . . #springitis🌸 #nomatterwhat #naturekeepsgoing #mothernature #eveningwalk #inthewoods #foroureyesonly #aveyron #tourismeaveyron #slowtravel

  • Guilty...we did some hoarding too 🐹🐹 No, not on toilet paper. But together with the local shops who can count on us as frequent buyers we thougt about how we can help each other, as small businesses. (on the phone off course). We had till noon to find solutions (lockdown started at 12). 🚧 The local building market stocked us with all kind of building supplies. We pay afterward, but only what is used. We can bring the unused stuff back to the store. 🚜The renting shop was happy to leave some of their machinery on our yard in stead of looking at them in a closed shop. We agreed on an hourly rate and the machinery stays (as long as the lockdown lasts). So grateful to work together with these local businesses. We can continu working thanks to their entrepreneurship. In the meanwhile we started the construction of the terraces of the new house. . . . . . #shoplocal #togetherwestrong #entrepreneurship #lockdownsolutions #aveyronemotion #tourismeaveyron #dontgiveup

  • Last night we talked about how to be an even better host for our guests in this difficult upcoming season. Some of them will see their much deserved and long needed holiday vanished. This is as bad news for them as for us. And still, we would like let them experience the Rêve hospitality. Their holidays begin as from the moment they book, not just at the moment they arrive here. So we made a decison. When this is all over and we can start to travel again our guests who had to cancel their bookings because of the C*****-lockdown (don't mention the C-word anymore🤮) can take the time to rebook their stay and arrange things in a quiet way. We are almost fully booked next season and want to give them a chance to get organised and plan a new stay. So we stop to take bookings for a while so we can deliver what we promise to our guest when they book with us, and that is a slow travel. Huh? Yes, we predict a new sort of horders after this is over and they won't be satisfied with only toilet paper. I will write an article on that topic later on this week. PS: this photo was taken a few days before the lockdown. We were mocking about the rain that spoiled our hiking trip. Little did we know... Stay safe, Febe en Joeri . . . . . . #lockdown #tourism #difficulttimes #harddecisions #stayloyaltoyourbrand #superhost #slowtravel #aveyron #tourismeaveyron #aveyronvivrevrai #mazamet #walkingbridge #tourismetarnetgaronne
