The experience

Join us renovating this stable so that we can host events in it. We are now building the roof, and soon we will continue with the floor, walls, windows, heating, kitchen, etc. Loads of work to do!

I acquired this farm almost two years ago and I am renovating it for welcoming tourists and events. It's a beautiful farm with horses in the countryside. It's located 30 minutes away from a city called Rostock, in the state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.
