Camping in tent on amazing location in the forest; near is amazing isolated beach so rest of the day you can use for swimming or just chilling on the beach. The kitchen is part of old stone house, equipped with gas cooker, fire stove and anything you need. Optionally,you can bring your own tents or hammock and set-up here.
