Zen Garden: A magical and inspiring hidden paradise awaits you! Welcome to our spacious, cozy, and fully equipped studio—your home away from home. Whether you're traveling solo, with a companion, or with loved ones, we’ve created the perfect retreat for you. Nestled within a private 6.5-hectare park with breathtaking views of rolling hills and lush woodlands, it's the ideal escape. Your dog or dogs are more than welcome to explore and roam freely in this vast open space during your stay. Zen Garden is a fantastic destination year-round. Whether you're visiting in summer or winter, it’s easily accessible, with great proximity to excellent restaurants, points of interest, and, in winter, just a short distance from ski slopes, resorts, and relaxing thermal baths.

Read what others are saying about us: "My wife, our dog, and I stayed for 4 nights at Yinli and August’s place. Upon arrival, I quickly realized that 3 nights wouldn’t be enough. We were on a road trip and decided to cancel another reservation just to extend our stay by another night. Honestly, I could’ve stayed for a month! It had everything I wanted: peace, nature, and isolation. The property is crisscrossed by a small river whose soothing sound became our perfect background music. It’s situated in the middle of a large meadow, surrounded by apple, peach, fig, and walnut trees. Breakfast came straight from the garden! The silence was profound, and at night the sky was blanketed with stars. The house itself was incredible—spacious, clean, with a large, comfortable bed, heated floors, and all the modern conveniences. The host and their children were incredibly welcoming and thoughtful. Sadly, we now know that this was the highlight of our entire trip—it will be hard to top what we experienced at Zen Garden. Thank you so much. We can’t wait to return! Deo Volente.” A personal note: Dear Yinli and August, I hope this note finds you both well. Be incredibly proud of what you’ve created here—it’s truly a paradise. The attention to detail and the love you’ve poured into this place is inspiring. I’ve never felt more welcomed or cared for during any other stay. Our time at your home made us realize that this is exactly the kind of place where we’d love to start a family. Rest assured, we’ll do everything we can to return. Yinli, we didn’t get a chance to say it properly, but your cooking was amazing! Next time, we hope to prepare some Brazilian and Venezuelan dishes for you so you can also experience our cuisine. Sending you all a big Latin hug! 😄
