The Woods - Birding, Farming & Eco Living

This is a permaculture farm set deep in the woods with its own waterfall and swim hole. The huts are simple but beautiful and I was the only person there, so had the place to myself. It was the best local breakfast I had and homemade cinnamon and lemongrass tea topped it off. If you want peace and quiet and to experience a different path, then this gem is for you.

It is a fair way from town, so go prepared. But take the full board option as the traditional food and herb lesson is fantastic. Plus the passionfruit was the size of my hand!!

The Woods is a quiet and calm place for those who would like to experience the nature and to get away from a busy lifestyle. There is no TV and limited internet signal which creates a good opportunity to connect with nature and live a simple life. The property is bordering to it's private waterfall which allows us to enjoy the nature in peace. The woods team is very caring. The food is absolutely amazing. Very fresh and some ingredients are picked from the property itself.

The atmosphere of the location

This is a beautiful place where you'll find yourself in tune with nature in it's fullest glory. Every aspect of 'the Woods' exudes a natural vibe. Lots of wood, clay elements, beautiful plants everywhere. It has clearly been well-maintained. The staff is very friendly. Also there is a beautiful forest that they have partly cultivated and partly kept in it's pristine purity. If you want there are a few waterfalls with natural ponds where you can take a dip. The view from the main building is beautiful and at night there are just a few lights, giving you the feeling that uninhabited places still exist. You really feel like you are in the woods, surrounded by nature. A welcome change from most places where too much has been built. This is really a natural retreat space. Beautiful ❤️

The plants and trees want to drink, but there was no rain! Please mother Nature, bless the area with a lot of rain.

Loved the landscape and the rooms. It was built into the surroundings very well incorporating the landscape. Mano and the team were great, they were attentive and eager to help us. Mano was very eager to teach and show us the agro farming and perma culture at the site. Mano is very passionate and it shows in his work. Come here if you want to explore eco friendly farming, nature, and like to relax to the sounds of nature - falling asleep to insects chirping and waking up to bird song.

The rooms could do with a little more natural light.
