The apartment is eco-friendly; we sort our trash and compost, most of the furniture has been repurposed, and we support local producers, artisans, and “nature & discovery” activities. Seasonal workshops available upon request

You’ll have access to a barbecue and patio furniture, as well as board games and outdoor games, children’s books, a TV with a hard drive full of films and cartoons for all ages, and Wi-Fi (note: very, very weak signal… feel free to get your own personal Wi-Fi password), hiking maps, ideas for activities, shops, restaurants, and nearby markets...

Garden... chickens, rabbits, and sheep are our wonderful roommates! They have their own little space and will love your vegetable scraps...
