    Lovely accommodation - dorm rooms with heaters and storage and lovely living area with open fire. Beautiful gardens to chill out in in a quiet village in the mountains, lovely views very quiet at night. Kitchen space to cook your own food but...

Company information

My name is Salim, I am a sociable, caring and full of positive energy person and I love to see everyone around me happy! "When I was 10, I used to urge my dad to modernize our house, I wanted to get rid of the arches, the yellowed stone walls, every old display and the “diwan,” the traditional Arab living room. I never looked at our 250-year-old house as a cultural treasure.” I have learned that success comes from taking risks and even failing sometimes but, most important, it is the dream that keeps me going.
