A Nature Reserve Just For You
Treat yourself to a unique getaway in the heart of nature in one of our advanced cabins on the water, located at Aquascope Virelles, a protected nature reserve.

Perfect for a romantic break or a moment of rejuvenation, this cabin on the water offers a unique experience, disconnected from everyday life. Imagine lying in bed, gazing at the stars through a large bay window, or enjoying a spectacular sunset from your private terrace. At dawn, let yourself be lulled by birdsong and storks landing just a few metres away.
