We are trying to reduce our ecological impact and would really appreciate your help in that.

We have solar panels installed on the roof, so try to use appliances such as the washing machine, dishwasher, air-conditioning unit, whilst the sun is shining.

And please don't leave the airconditioning (or heating) units running, or lights on, whilst you are not in the room or the gite. We suggest also to keep the temerature setting at 22 degrees.
