Off grid house the Old Pigsty is a back-to-basic cottage on the Moon View Farm. It is an old pigsty converted into a hiker's cabin. The old elements are still in it. The walls are leached with clay from our polder. There is intentionally no electricity, lighting comes from candles or oil lamps that are present. Equipped with a wood stove (wood costs €15/basket = purchase price), plenty of seating inside and outside and there is a full inventory for cooking. You bring your own sleeping bag, toiletries and towels. The sleeping platform is for 4 pers. You can cook oldschool on a tripod over fire (BBQ or Dutch Oven) or rocketstove. You can also use a full kitchen with electricity in our garage. There is a compost toilet and an outdoor shower with hot water. Ideal for retreat, reflection or a "back-to-basic" experience, for example. Up to one dog welcome. However, please be leashed on the property and allowed to do their needs off site.
