The breakfast was basic but good enough, staff were great and the non-profit they have is quite inspiring. We would have liked to have more time to explore the area and their shop and bakery. The site is also beautiful and mostly self built.

The roof leaked a bit, although that was during a very heavy thunderstorm. Cleanliness in the shared kitchen could be better.

"Geweldige ervaring"

Exceptional

9.0

Unieke ervaring! Echt bijzonder hoe zij daar de boel runnen. Wij kregen ook een rondleiding en zagen kindjes bij de crèche. Hebben ons welkom gevoeld. Zij hergebruiken spullen, is mooi en creatief om te zien

Veel muggen! Bed lag beetje schuin 1 matras, maar het is voor een matras in een tent op pallets echt dikk prima. Het blijft kamperen.

En famille avec 2 enfants (8 et 10 ans) on a beaucoup aimé l accueil, le dîner partagé, la tente familiale, les discussions auprès du feu le soir. La réactivité du personnel pour organiser des excursions. On a également apprécié l emplacement et l importance accordée au développement durable.

"Not the best - You get what you pay for"

Good

4.0

It is an authentic village experience.

For starters, if you use the address provided on your GPS, you will get lost. Rather search for the place to get there. Secondly, it is no backpackers, it is an eco-tourism village. The swimming pool wasn't cleaned, and that was the major attraction for me.
