Far from the hustle and bustle of the city and the seaside, we've selected some wild places and experiences for you to escape to this summer. Eco-lodges, outdoor yoga, permaculture... In short, everything we love or would love to discover.

The project was born from a desire to actively participate in a positive transition in society. The idea? That the bed and breakfast business would help fund the permaculture garden, and that it would become an educational tool for schools and anyone interested in learning more about this method of growing.
