Company information

It is such a privilege to stay in this part of the world: when you visit I hope that you will truly experience the peace and natural beauty and get food for your soul! I have been living on the farm for two years with my two loving and lively dogs. We have a few chickens that lay fresh eggs daily and this city girl tries her best to cultivate fresh veg for your future stays!
