Eco-Friendly & CSR

Seasonova Environmental Charter

Contributing to Carbon Neutrality

Since 2022, we have been committed to the Ecologic Program to restore degraded land through reforestation.
Thanks to this partnership, we have already planted 1,935 trees and protected 1.2 hectares of native forest in Brazil, contributing to the sequestration of 929 tonnes of CO₂.

Preserving Biodiversity

We choose to locate our campsites in pristine environments, ensuring we minimize our impact on local ecosystems.

No pesticides
Native plantings
Integrated landscaping
Wildlife refuges

Several sites are adjacent to French National Forest Office (ONF) woodlands or Natura 2000 protected areas, immersing guests in rich and protected ecosystems.
We have also installed black-bee hives on the Île de Ré campsite—Apis mellifera mellifera—a protected sub-species essential for pollination.

Passing on an Environmentally-Respectful Culture

We train our teams in eco-friendly practices and raise campers’ awareness of responsible tourism through educational materials, activities and workshops.

Promoting Sustainable Resource Management

We strive to reduce our daily environmental footprint.
Selective sorting and composting are deployed with clear signage, and our staff are trained in best practices.
Water and energy consumption are monitored using flow reducers and tracking tools.

Building Relationships with Committed Partners

We strengthen partnerships with nature-protection actors such as the ONF, LPO (Bird Protection League) and local associations.

Labelling Our Commitments

We aim to achieve “Destination of Excellence” certification for 100 % of our campsites by 2025 and are actively pursuing recognised labels such as the European Ecolabel and La Clef Verte, guarantees of sustainable tourism.

Responsible Purchasing & Circular Economy

To extend equipment life and reduce our footprint, we prioritise refurbished gear and suppliers committed to environmental standards (Ecolabel, Ecocert).
Cleaning products are eco-friendly, reusable or low-packaging-impact.
Organic produce is favoured; several campsites sell local honey from our Île de Ré apiary and a “slow life” organic-cotton textile line to encourage mindful consumption.
We have also started digitising HR procedures to cut paper use.

Encouraging Soft Mobility

We facilitate sustainable travel to our campsites by train, bus or bicycle.
Bike shelters are provided, soft mobility highlighted, and visitors are informed about the impact of their travel choices.

Economic Pillar

Deliver a high-quality service aligned with the values of the Slow Life movement. Buy responsibly by offering products that are both high-quality and local, and that respect the environment. Respect our stakeholders through well-considered decisions. Demonstrate transparency to our stakeholders. Pay invoices on time. Be transparent with investors. Support local development by purchasing local products sold in our shops and offered in our food bars.

Social Pillar

Guarantee health and safety for our employees and guests. Promote quality of life and well-being at work: open-plan offices for staff, free physical activities (yoga, crossfit) and other ongoing projects such as installing a vegetable garden and extra-professional activities. Strengthen equal opportunities, diversity and inclusion. Foster good working practices through training, meetings, seminars and surveys.

Environmental Pillar

Use natural resources (oil, gas, water, etc.) efficiently and sustainably. Run projects both internally and directly on our campsites to preserve biodiversity. Limit waste to reduce food and other wastage, recycling it via composters on the campsites. Analyse and manage resource consumption across all Seasonova camps sites.

Le Coq Vert

We joined the community in 2022 because we are convinced of the urgency and of our role in the ecological transition (limiting our impact, improving energy efficiency, using renewable energy, seeking carbon neutrality, promoting clean transport, the circular economy and encouraging the emergence of sustainable buildings…).

Carbon Footprint

Since Seasonova was founded, we have always been committed to acting for the planet. That is why, in 2022, we partnered with Groupe SLB and Stéphane Ledentu within the Ecologic Programme, which acquires land depleted by intensive farming and replants trees to restore the soil. A forest-creation expert for 30 years in France, Brazil, Romania and Senegal, Stéphane Ledentu shares our values. In 2022 alone we planted 1,935 trees, preserving 1.2 hectares of native forest in Paraná State, Brazil. This contributes to global carbon neutrality through an estimated voluntary sequestration of 929 tonnes of CO₂. Natural regeneration of native forests is a subject particularly close to our hearts. By staying with Seasonova, you help preserve the planet.

Ecological Transition

Seasonova is working to offer you the most eco-responsible outdoor accommodation possible. To do this, we are implementing several projects to meet one of our main objectives: reducing our environmental impact while providing you with a quality service. For many years we have closely monitored our consumption of gas, electricity and petrol through a consumption plan, and we have recently embarked on a more ambitious project: obtaining the European Ecolabel.

It is the only official ecological label common to all EU countries. Initially rolled out for product categories, it was extended to tourist accommodation in 2003 to help travellers find sustainable, eco-responsible lodging and to allow accommodation providers to validate their actions and enhance credibility. The European Ecolabel is one of the strictest labels for environmental and social criteria.

Seasonova Honey

Committed to protecting endangered species, Seasonova has sponsored a beehive with L’Abeille de Ré, a company based in Loix on the Île de Ré. This local firm raises public awareness about the plight of bees. It is a unique opportunity to foster biodiversity and save an endangered species that is gradually disappearing due to climate change, pesticides, etc. The honey produced by the hive at our Île de Ré campsite will be harvested and sold on-site from April onwards—the result of a project Seasonova holds dear.

Office National des Forêts (ONF)

The ONF is a public body that acts to preserve forests. Its actions are very diverse, which is why we are delighted to be moving in the same direction. Our partnership has developed, especially with the opening of our Seasonova La Forêt campsite in Sillé-le-Guillaume.

Station verte

The “Station Verte” label is a national label reserved for leisure, nature and holiday destinations in a preserved environment—countryside, mountain or forest—equipped with accommodation and leisure facilities. Our Seasonova La Forêt campsite proudly bears this label!
