Au Charmant Petit Lac

A holiday in perfect balance with Nature

Our greatest challenge in this new century is to adopt an idea that seems abstract: sustainable development.

– Kofi Annan

AU CHARMANT PETIT LAC was designed and built with ideal solutions to satisfy customers sensitive to natural beauty, respect for the environment and in search of carefully studied comfort.

Our concept of luxury is eco-sustainability.

Au Charmant Petit Lac has adopted its own vision of what luxury is today, which translates into simplicity, warmth and attention to detail.

Water is life

Air is freedom
In all Au Charmant Petit Lac environments, there are controlled ventilation vents that allow the continuous exchange and purification of the air. This makes it possible to avoid useless dispersions, thanks to the heat exchanger which recovers the energy otherwise dispersed outside.

The stale air of the most “polluted” rooms of the structure, before being expelled outside, is conveyed into a heat exchanger heat where it preheats or pre-cools clean air taken from outside.

The clean fresh air is introduced through the vents in the rooms and bathrooms. This system ensures the continuous and healthy change of air, eliminates bad smells, pollutants and excess humidity, adapting the ventilation (imperceptibly) to the degree of occupation of our Eco-Hotel.

Fire is heat

In this valley, from the Middle Ages onwards, the woods have been owned by all the inhabitants of the place and it is due to their ancient environmental sensitivity that only dry, now dead trees can always be cut. In the last ten years alone, the wooded area of the municipality of Ayas has grown by 10%! The fireplaces in the hotel use dry wood from our forests and are the only open flames in the entire hotel.

DESIGN & COMFORT

The sober and clean architectural style blends naturally with the woods and evocative landscapes that characterize the Val d’ Ayas, uniting cutting-edge technology, comfort and design.

The hotel is devoted to respect for nature starting from the foundations up to the every part of it: a “classically modern” wooden building built entirely with renewable resources.

ZERO IMPACT

Thanks to the favorable hydro-geological situation of the site on which it stands, the Hotel is equipped with an open circuit geothermal system which, with three heat pumps, satisfies all the thermal needs of the structure (heating, the total use of domestic hot water , the swimming pool, the spa, etc.). This solution has avoided the use of systems powered by fossil fuels and consequently the emissions of combustion processes.

INNOVATION

The use of cutting-edge technologies has made it possible to combine luxury and energy. The solar thermal system present throughout the structure also provides an important supply of energy without neglecting the design. Lines, style in perfect harmony with the Ayassina building and nature. Every year, thanks to our solar thermal system, we avoid the emission of 68 tons. of CO2.

COSMOPOLITAN

Sustainability is also the attention and care of our Team.
Au Charmant is a place where simplicity is alive, palpable, especially in the people who work there. It is a place where we pay particular attention to personal and professional growth, equal opportunities and to the gratification of each individual.
