Feedback

  • Ulric, Frank and I wanted to tell you how much we enjoyed meeting you and touring your lodges. We were thrilled beyond words. When we drove away I felt I was on sensory overload, there was so much to see. Sadly, I had the wrong lens on the camera to take pictures of the indoors. I would dearly love to do so, as your work is so stunning, charming and unexplainable!
    - Best regards, Frank and Julie.
  • Beautiful house in the hills, fantastic food. We were lucky, that we came here. We gained new experiences and made happy memories.

  • It is not easy to find the perfect words to say thanks.....so I just tell you, I loved it here. I really enjoyed, the breathtaking scenery from top and all over your mountain. I think, you are the most interesting couple, as hosts and the most unusual creators of your straw-bale guest house.

  • Being up with you, on your mountaintop, you helped and inspired me, to discover a totally new side of me... to be artistic and come home with a new perspective of wisdom and knowledge and dare to live more experimental. Your secluded ness was healing and most uplifting.

  • The way you both are living up in the bush gave to me an idea, how to live my own life. Seeing what you did and shared with me, opened so many doors in my own mind. It was incredible, what ever I saw and to have met you, at this moment of my life.

  • The landscape here and the total silence of nature is so healing. After a few days at your wonderful cozy place, you feel balanced, conscious and just happy. Thank you so much for this and your companionship, whenever we felt like.
