  • Description

    Description

    We are an eco camping retreat and small farm in the Mediterranean coastal mountains in northern Italy. Our location is idyllic and peaceful. We have a great location for hiking, biking & wild swimming, as well as experiencing Ligurian culture.
    We are seeking some assistance with manual tasks, including garlic, olive and lavender farming, campsite repairs and gardening. The work is fairly physically demanding. But we also have amazing lodgings (see photos) and gourmet food to offer.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We are located in a rural village in the mountains. Most people only speak Italian and we like to practise as much as possible, although we are English speaking. Our local life is fairly isolated, with occasional trips to the local beaches and markets. We have local wild swimming and great opportunities for hiking too.
