Stay on an acreage within Permaculture Village and be involved with daily activities as well as new projects within a health-conscious atmosphere.
Depending on what accommodation is available, you'll be staying on an acreage in either the cypress wood cottage, within the rammed earth house or there's plenty of space for you to pitch a tent if you have one or park your van if you've got one you enjoy living from.
We have a variety of social activities, meals, movie and music nights, yoga class within the village itself and beautiful pebble pond to swim in as well as bamboo forest and lots of nature walks that you can enjoy in your leisure time.
