Description
Welcome to the Pyrenees
We are a small German-Dutch family with two children, living in an off-grid house in the Pyrenees. Surrounded by wild nature, chickens, a cozy cat, and a lot of space to grow and create, we’ve been slowly and mindfully building our alternative lifestyle here for some years now.
We live simply and close to nature, with a focus on sustainability and a conscious way of being. -

In your free time, you can go hiking, relax, enjoy the beautiful surroundings, or join local village festivals – especially in the summer. You can visit the beautiful Saturday market in Saint-Girons. Toulouse is also reachable by hitchhiking and bus if you're up for a little adventure.

Accommodation
You’ll stay in a spacious glamping tent with a 1.60 m-wide bed — simple, cozy, and surrounded by nature. The bed can be separated into two 80 cm-wide single beds. You can use the dry composting toilet, a warm outdoor shower, and an outdoor kitchen. During the summer months, we set up a medium-sized pool.
There is the option to set up an additional bell tent with 2 sleeping spaces, and you can also add 2 more mattresses to the large glamping tent.
We cook with organic ingredients and can offer three vegetarian or vegan meals a day. Meals are either prepared by us or prepared together, depending on the flow of the day. -
What else ...
We enjoy having a fire under the open sky in the evenings to unwind and end the day, as well as practicing Yoga or enjoy a walk in the morning.
You can reach us by a bus from Toulouse. We’ll be happy to provide more details about the trip upon request.
