Company information

As a frequent traveler and camper myself, I know from experience what is missing on my travels. That is why I try to recreate a homely feeling at Summer Garden. Being a nature lover spending as much time as possible in the outdoors, I have invested heavily in creating a proper garden at Summer Garden, giving a relaxed atmosphere to stay in. As a family person myself with children, I had to add a playground with pathways for the children to play on at the guest house. Making the children happy on there travels, gives me great joy.
