In between the workshops and retreats we offer a wholesome homely experience for guests who are looking for a quiet break. We welcome nature lovers, writers, artists, researchers, and anyone wanting to experience slow mountain village life. But if you’re looking for a party place and hotel facilities, we would not be a good fit.
We expect our guests to respect the privacy of others, and discourage loud music and any intrusive behaviour.
