About your accomodation

Get out of your everyday life for a moment.Breathe the fresh air, listen to the birds, gaze at the lakes or the blue turacos from the terrace of your wooden house on stilts, and let not only your soul but also your legs dangle from one of the swings and hammocks.Join us at the campfire or enjoy a relaxed day biting in pineapples, mangos or avocados from my garden.
And yes, it’s off the grid, but don‘t panic, there is solar energy to charge your electronic devices.
Snuggle up in the huge king-size mattress and let fresh air in through the large French doors.
If needed, another mattress can be added to the floor if you are traveling as a group.There is light and electricity in the room thanks to solar power.
Right behind your cottage is a shower...
