Good to know
No prior cooking or farming experience required; groups typically eight to twelve. Flights and travel to the venue are excluded, as are drinks outside meal times. Room descriptions differ on default double versus twin beds, so confirm the bed configuration when booking. This listing is for April; the separate October date range has a duration discrepancy and was not added.
What to confirm before booking
Ask about any meals, transport, flights, taxes, equipment, supplements and cancellation terms not explicitly included above. An unlisted item is not necessarily included or excluded.
