In short: Gîte du Cruet in Saint-Eustache can be booked exclusively for seminars and leadership meetings: up to 12 people for day sessions and 8 residential (double rooms or twin beds). The space is bright, with a large screen and a 200 Mbps internet connection. Annecy is 30 minutes away. Yoga with Sophie, hiking, kayaking and Savoyard meals can round off the programme.
Leave the office without going to the other side of the world
A leadership team with decisions to make, a project team getting started, a group that needs to reconnect: the best seminar is often the one that offers a change of scene without losing a day to travel. Gîte du Cruet is 30 minutes from Annecy and about an hour from Geneva or Chambéry, in a quiet hamlet in the Bauges Regional Nature Park.
Two formats
Day meetings: up to 12 people
The venue is yours for your working sessions, with breaks and lunch. The ideal format for a leadership meeting, a strategy workshop or a kick-off day.
Residential: up to 8 people, 2 to 3 days
The all-inclusive stay (cleaning, bed linen, towels) allows real immersion. The 4 bedrooms can be set up with a double bed or two separate beds: with 8 participants, rooms are shared by two.

Highlights that bring the team together
Between sessions, the mountains do the rest. All activities are led by qualified professionals:
- Yoga or breathing sessions with Sophie, a certified yoga teacher, to start the day or unwind in the evening
- Guided hike from the gîte, from a gentle walk to a more challenging outing
- Kayaking or paddleboarding on Lake Annecy, 10 minutes away
- Night hike by headtorch, rock-climbing taster or wild plant foraging
- Skiing at Le Semnoz in winter, 25 minutes away
Food: local and hassle-free
The Fromagerie de la Cochette, just opposite the gîte, prepares raclette or fondue baskets with village produce to order. A Savoyard caterer can also handle group lunches and dinners. And the fully equipped kitchen lets you prepare breakfasts and breaks yourselves.

- Day 1 — arrive late morning, lunch, afternoon working session, walk up to the Col de la Cochette before dinner, fondue evening.
