Description
We are family of 4, two adults and two children, age 3 and 5. We have fulfilled the dream about our own country side house which is forest enclosured.
The house is 120 years old but charming. Not renovated yet.
We want to make our house cozy and warm (but with a variety of inner house construction.) The yard and environment is waiting for regeneration, because it hasn't been cared for dozens years. It already takes time to care for the garden and to provide wood for winter heating.
We offer - living in wonderful family, peaceful country side environment and staying on the second floor in our house (sleeping on the floor, mattresses and beding are provided). It is possible to sleep in the tent also. Vegetarian meals. Tours to the nearest towns.
We speak Latvian, Russian, English and some German.
