Description
Lovely guesthouse in the heart of the Cap Bon, with Mr. Donkey, the coincoin family, Dupont Dupont duo, a whole band of geese and John the star of the farmyard. About one hour from Tunis the capital, with a panoramic view and great surroundings, the farm is calm, serene and peaceful. Arslene and Lamia have been married for 8 years and love is still in the air. Arslene is in snail breeding and Lamia in sustainable tourism, together they run a farm and welcome guests at their table d'hotes, guesthouse and camping site. They empower rural women and help them in marketing and selling homemade products. We have 2 persons helping us with the daily tasks. Moufida, a very kind lady, makes sure the guesthouse is always clean and tidy. Mongi, a detail oriented man, helps with keeping the farm and the gardens clean and with taking care of the animals (feeding etc.).
Single ladies, couples and families are welcome, hosting single males is unfortunately not possible.

Help
In a farm there is always to do and the creativity of the hostess is overflowing, an assistance is therefore really welcome.
