    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    This is a beautiful restful place, mainly silent apart from the birds and the frogs. There is always something to learn from Nature. If prospective visitors have an interest an Western metaphysics, I have many books and after- supper conversation could be on the menu. .

    ideally I am looking for a COUPLE for the autumn.- late September into October would suit

    The land consists of one hectare with a meadow, five terraces, two ponds and a stream. I am still creating a large vegetable plot (17mtr x 33 mtr) - In the autumn it will be time to weed and clear the veg plot ready for the winter - The ponds will probably be in need of clearing too.

    Space for parking camper vans

    There is parking space outside my house - this would be okay for a small motorhome- the track from the village to my home would probably not suit a big vehicle.
