Company information
I love people, I have travelled lots of different countries, but now the world comes to me..and I love my job...what a blessing to live here and do what I do...my guests are the reason why i get up in the morning and start cooking the breakfasts.
Property information
The peace..the silence..the stars..the space. Guests say they can see why I say I am blessed to live here, they can feel it too.
A place to relax and over sleep when they push the "snooze" button. Grumpy and unhappy people will not be happy here, or they will change their minds and mood.
Neighbourhood information
Quiet safe neighborhood, where you can walk around and leave the car parked, close to the shops but away from town noise and traffic.
