Description
CIN 010041-LT-0001.
Here, nature reigns supreme. This house is our attempt to learn from her how to nourish our lives with the energy that exists (she knows how to do it very well).
I love sharing the apparent solitude amidst an intense wildlife by occasionally welcoming guests. We don't offer a tourist stay, but a firsthand experience of happy degrowth.
We believe that a week is enough time to have a meaningful experience and to engage with the rhythm that accompanied our ancestors for millennia and that today is so distant from city life.
This is a rustic house that we completely renovated with simple materials: raw and terracotta earth, slate, wood, and wool. Wood heating is used. Solar energy is the main source of electricity and hot water.
The hermitage (700 m above sea level) overlooks a vast panorama of mountains and even the sea (in the distance). The house is surrounded by cherry and apple trees.
The house and the adjacent 10,000 m2 are surrounded by a fence that prevents the entry of wild animals and also allows you to let your dog run free.
Beyond the fence, the hermitage is surrounded by woods and aromatic plants. Wild animals are frequently sighted: fallow deer, roe deer, wild boar, foxes, badgers, pheasants, partridges, and dormice. Wolves are common but difficult to spot. Sometimes during the summer, you can hear their howling in concert.
