A Breath of Fresh Air

In the village of Château, within the grounds of the Tomette Singulière guest house, a circular 18m² room has been delicately installed facing the typical bocage meadows of the region, offering guests the chance to reconnect with nature.

This minimalist habitat includes a bedroom and a bathroom, with curved glass providing a panoramic view of the preserved surrounding nature. When closed, LumiPod is a cocoon that protects and immerses you in the landscape. With a simple gesture, its window opens fully, allowing you to enjoy an extraordinary indoor-outdoor experience.

Whether for a night or a weekend, indulge in laziness and contemplation without guilt... Named "La Cabane", this room will appeal to those who cherish the nights spent at the bottom of the garden, gazing at the sky... except this one offers all the comforts of a 5-star hotel room!

A Blend of Senses and Sensations

Beyond this unique experience, the partnership between Tomette Singulière and LumiPod reflects a desire to offer beauty, quality, and local products. LumiPod is designed and manufactured in a workshop near Lyon, an hour from the house, by around twenty woodcraft professionals. The LUMICENE® curved and reversible window is produced by Saint-Gobain in Chambéry.
