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 building our alternative lifestyle here for some years now – slowly, mindfully, and with love.
We live simply and close to nature, with a focus on sustainability, creativity, and a conscious way of being.

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.
You can reach us by a bus from Toulouse. We’ll be happy to provide more details about the trip upon request.
