The philosophy of the Garden of the 4 Seasons: nature, sharing, simplicity, families, authenticity, proximity to Le Mans.
To enhance your experience, outdoor spaces invite you to relax and enjoy friendly gatherings. Ideal for family vacations, time with friends, or a relaxing weekend, the Garden of the 4 Seasons combines comfort, nature, and leisure for an unforgettable stay.
A preserved natural environment in the heart of the Sarthe bocage
At the Garden of the 4 Seasons, nature is ever-present. Nestled in the heart of the Sarthe bocage, our lodge and guest rooms offer a green, tranquil, and rejuvenating setting, just a few minutes from Le Mans. Here, the seasons dictate the rhythm: the birds singing in spring, long summer evenings on the terraces, the warm colors of autumn, and the winter peacefulness.
The establishment has been designed to be a place of sharing and conviviality, for families as well as groups or couples. Large equipped terraces, barbecue areas, outdoor spaces open to the countryside, and relaxation zones allow for simple gatherings in a natural and soothing atmosphere.
The permaculture garden is fully part of this philosophy. Vegetable plot, orchard, flowers, and cultivated areas with respect to nature invite you to slow down, observe, and enjoy a living, authentic, and sustainable environment.
Playgrounds, leisure, and nature walks for young and old
Vacationing at the Garden of the 4 Seasons is also an opportunity to be active, play, and fully enjoy the fresh air. Play areas are available for both children and adults, fostering moments of bonding and relaxation in the family.
For discovery enthusiasts, we offer bike rentals on site. Numerous routes are accessible from the lodge, including the Vélobuissonnière, perfect for gently exploring the surrounding countryside. Nearby, the Arche de la Nature is a must-visit for young and old, combining walks, animals, and environmental education.
A permaculture vegetable garden and a garden to share throughout the seasons
The vegetable garden is an integral part of the soul of the Garden of the 4 Seasons.
Cultivated in permaculture, it is made available to our guests according to the harvests and seasons. Tomatoes, zucchinis, basil, strawberries, melons or orchard fruits naturally enhance your meals and reconnect everyone with the pleasure of simple things.
Around the vegetable garden, the flowering garden invites contemplation and wonder. The ecological approach of the place extends to composting and respectful resource management, in a spirit of sustainable and responsible tourism, in harmony with the surrounding nature.
The mini-farm and the animals: an authentic encounter with living beings
The mini-farm is one of the children’s… and adults’ favorite spots. Geese, turkeys, hens, and their chicks are part of the daily life of the Garden of the 4 Seasons.
The sheep, which can be observed and fed, contribute to this peaceful and authentic atmosphere, conducive to the discovery of the rural world.
Near the lodge, the horses complete this immersion in nature. It is possible to approach them, feed them, and simply take the time to observe them. These simple moments create precious memories and offer a real reconnection with living beings, away from the fast-paced rhythm of everyday life.
