We offer a big caravan of 7m that was renovated for the biggest part and is now totally waterproof, but still needs some love with the finitions. It has a kitchen, with oven. There is an outdoor toilet and shower where we also need some help with renovation.
The caravan has a big private space on the land.
Concerning food, i am very happy to buy or pay the food from the market (vegetables, fruits and basics) for the persons who will visit us. As i am not a great cook at all, i would apreciate if the persons can help with cooking as a part of the exchange.
There is a kitchen with oven in the caravan we offer.
