Alojamiento, manutención y transporte

Sekier farm house is a 150 years old stone building which was some 20 years ago renovated with clay plaster, wooden floors and wood-fired stoves. The kitchen and bathroom have running water from our nearby well. The bath room has a wood fired shower, the toilets are composting long drops outside. Inspite of trying to get back to the basics, Sekier is equipped with modern devices that we just consider very helpful - a library with internet, a laundry machine... The closest bus stops are about 30 mins walking distance from Sekier.
