Résidence La Girarde

A place to live, 5 minutes from the center of Epalinges, built on a culture of companionship based on the Montessori philosophy of "HELP ME TO DO IT MYSELF" between residents, staff, and caregivers.

The single rooms include a semi-private area (the hallway) and a bathroom shared by two residents.
The hotel-style concept of La Girarde Residence allows us to say that "La Girarde Residence is a great place to be."
