  Algo más...

  Naramata is a quiet village about 15 minutes drive from the nearest town of Penticton. There is a beautiful lake and lovely beaches. We have a store and a pub in the village. There is a very limited bus service twice per day. Volunteers would be welcome to catch a ride into town whenever we are heading in for groceries or errands. There are lots of lovely hiking trails, beautiful bike rides and lots of wineries to visit. The area is not suitable for people who are looking for an exciting night life. Having a car would be helpful if you want to sight see beyond Naramata.
  We cannot accommodate pets, smokers or families with young children.
