NOVA casa de campo para Bookabach

We love animals and the outdoors.

We spent many years camping on this property in a tent and cooking over a campfire when our children were small. Later, when we came more often, we stayed in a caravan, but still did most of our cooking over a campfire. A swim in the Clutha was our 'bath' and our children learned to catch or forage for food, such as trout, rabbits, mushrooms and pip and stone fruit.

We renovated this bach as a family project from 2013 and it was finally relocated from Edendale in early 2016. Although it is basic, it has everything you actually need in life, and still feels like luxury to us.

Set on a knob overlooking an orchard with over 6 ha to roam over and mingle with the quietly grazing farm animals.

Exclusive access to one of the few swim and fishing-accessible areas of this section of the Clutha River.

Being off-grid offers a low impact experience without having to go without the necessary home comforts, such as basic cooking, hot shower and flush loo.
