Program Details

The restoration of the old farmhouse is now in its first phase.

This means we will start dividing up, planning, clearing and opening up new spaces.

Depending on how the start goes, we will also be able to start collecting ideas and materials for the final design and layout of the house.

Activities & Shift

In exchange for staying in the guesthouse, we work together five days a week on the restoration of an old part of the farmhouse.

We start in the morning so that everyone has the afternoon free to enjoy the beautiful location and the vibe.
