Description
We are a family community located in a beautiful landscape in the south of Estonia. Our community consists of 3 families. We grow our own vegetables, berries, fruits. There are chicken and rabbits, not to mention wild animals always surronding us and living here in peace. For example really exciting to see wild rabbits standing in our garden while having breakfast or birds teaching and encouraging their babies to fly just a few metres away!
Our people can prepare top of the class food and also provide useful but usually very simple tips for cooking.
There is also plenty of technical and constructional know-how from very skilled men in our community. We have a small sawmill and a vast variety of tools.
This place - Kunstimäe - has won our hearts, so we love being here :) We have many friends who are coming to visit us several times a year because they have also fell in love with Kunstimäe and our community.
PS. Just to know that we are located in the middle of “nowhere”, the closest small town is 15 km (Tartu is 60 km) and the bus is going to the town only once a day, so workawayers who want to go sightseeing have been warned that it might be tricky. We love living in the jungle, so we welcome workawayers who also love being mostly in the nature.

Accommodation
Workawayers will stay in our guesthouse rooms. There is also a lounge room where is TV and internet. Food is prepared by our master chefs ;) as much as possible using our own growed raw material.
What else ...
We are located 15 km from Otepää - Estonia´s winter capital. Otepää is also a sports centre, so lots of sports activities. Many lakes and nature tracks surround us. Estonia´s 2nd largest city is just 1 hour drive away and our neighbouring country Latvia is just 30 min away - so plenty of sightseeing :) As we are located in the countryside there is a bus connection to towns which is free of charge.
