Beschreibung
Hello, we are Matthieu and Daria. We are running a small eco glamping, a garden with restaurant and side activities (tours for our guests) in Skadar Lake National Park, Montenegro. We have 4 glamping tents with a maximum of 15 guests. We also organize dinner, wine tasting and tours for our guests, like canoeing, hiking, sightseeing, etc.
Our location is on a hillside with fantastic views over the surrounding mountains. A lot of hiking trails start nearby. The lake, river, waterfalls and stunning viewpoints are nearby waiting to be discovered. If you like working in beautiful surroundings, take out one of our canoes on the lake to admire a sunset, go for a long hike and enjoying great outdoors . . . Then you will definitely feel at home here.

Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten
We are European and happy to learn about people and their culture, share our point of view about Montenegro and Balkans and learn something new from you.
You will see first hand a small glamping business getting shape.
Matthieu has a good knowledge about carpentry and all kind of DIY. Additionally he is a nature lover with big knowledge about fauna and flora of the area (specifically birdwatcher). He can share some cool bushcraft skills and teach you how to canoe. He has as well experience as a workawayer while travelling for long on the bike.
Daria likes all kind of handcrafts, herbs, making natural soap and cosmetics, pottery, painting, decorating and experimenting in the kitchen. Always eager to learn new recipes. The soul of Hoopoe Glamping.
You will stay in a small village where locals produce wine, rakija, honey, cheese, smoked ham and marinate fish. Where people are still close to traditional way of growing vegetables, fruits, olives. Fascinating to see how the locals put their passion into it.
