5 Days in the French Countryside {Vlog}

Next on my journey to France with Yves Rocher, was a 3-day eco-trip to a quaint village of La Gacilly, the birthplace of Yves Rocher, an easy 3-hour train journey outside of Paris. La Gacilly is the site of the company’s impressive botanical garden and harvesting facilities, and the location of their four-star hotel: La Grée de Landes Eco-Hotel and Spa — a breathtaking eco spa hotel quite literally embedded into the countryside of Brittany. Here I learned about Yves Rocher’s impressive commitment to nature and the environment, highlighted in the vlog below.

La Grée de Landes Eco-Hotel and Spa had two pools — and for some unknown reason I never made it to the second one. Perhaps its because this view was just too perfect?

The breathtaking view and glorious sunset from the second floor pool deck.

The town of La Gacilly is exceptionally pretty with many little lane ways to wander through and explore.

My last night in La Gacilly. I was blessed with the most specular sunset over the countryside in the garden of La Grée de Landes Eco-Hotel and Spa. The food at the restaurant is grown in their own garden adjacent to the hotel. Between each course, I wandered through the garden and enjoy the sights and sounds of nature and watched that glorious sunset.

WHAT I WORE:

Yellow Dress | Very Similar Red dress | White Denim Shorts (similar, similar) | Similar Sandals

Thank you again to my Yves Rocher family. This was truly an incredible journey.
