Originally from South-East & East of Asia, temples are one of the iconic architectural elements of the Asian continent. Place of worship, associated most of the time with Buddhism, they come in all shapes and sizes. Chinese traditional architecture characterized by wooden structures and natural material in order to let men get into harmony with nature. It has a sloped roof with raising corners to make it look like a floating crown.
This style has existed since the Tang dynasty in the 9th century. The imperial law prohibited high constructions as nobody could be higher than the emperor, apart from a god, meaning a temple or a pagoda.
In Domaine EcÔtelia, we were inspired by the Pagoda's architectural shape and updated it to the EcÔtelia's DNA : a Perched Temple at 4 meters from the ground just like a Tree House, with its Nordic Bath on the terrace and a breathtaking view of the surrounding forest. The aim is to build a unique creation and fully integrate it to its local environment and to the ecological process of EcÔtelia.
Totally custom-built, this wooden Perched Temple, unique in France, was made by the "Compagnons du Devoir" passionate carpenters. Complemented by its japanese garden, and beautiful Asian-style furniture, you will enjoy high-end services (wine cellar, Nordic bath), while living an outside of time parenthesis !
With a capacity of 6 people, the Perched Temple has a parent bedroom, a bathroom and a large living-room with a bunk bed and a sofa bed. Its covered terrace opens onto the surrounding nature so that you can fully enjoy the fresh air of Gironde, in all seasons.
