    Hi people! :) I am Atilla. I renovating an old traditional house which made from pise (clay). This is a farm in the middle of the country in the Hungarian Great Plain, my grandparents built it and they was living there. There is a vineyard and a wine cellar and some fruit trees. There is a forest around the farm and the place is really peaceful with good energies.

    You can try what life is like in a quiet place in the nature, fare from big city and I can tell you stories how was it in my grandparents time. I was traveling in lot of countries, I know different cultures and I really like to present the Hungarian culture for the travelers and offer them with my own vine :)

    Accommodation

    There are 3 rooms in the farm with beds and a bathroom but you can take shower in the garden shower place which works by sun, this is from May, because the house is under renovation and there is no hot water in the bathroom, so now I warm up water on the stove, although the new chimny will be ready soon for the bathroom! Some places the ceiling is damaged. The kitchen is in another small house, there is a gas-cooker, microwave own, sink, toast maker... You can cook food there or we can cook together. The house and the kitchen boths are heating by woods.
