It is home to the Winter family, who spent the last 13 years restoring old stone cottages, building new facilities and planting 5 hectares of forested gardens with the help of neighbours and local artisans. Head for these hills and stay with us for a week’s retreat. Practice yoga in a wooden and glass shala floating above edible flower and herb gardens, walk miles of endless paths in the surrounding pine forests with our dogs, swim and mud bathe in cascading natural river pools, breathe pure mountain air, eat deliciously nourishing fresh veggie and vegan meals, have healing treatments from compassionate therapists, star gaze and then sleep deeply each night in comfy rustic stone cottages or Soulpad belle tents.
