Step into another world and experience life lived slowly. Replace the stress and strain of your everyday life with woodland, steep slopes and breathtaking views amid the quiet and seclusion of a high altitude farm. Here, the farmers have to be pretty much self-sufficient, producing their own with milk, cheese, butter, bread and herbs.
Whether you are looking to enjoy some peace and quiet, spend time with your family or go on extensive walks in the mountains, rest assured that you will receive a heartfelt welcome from the farm family.
