The heart of our home and our little slice of Portuguese life, is our love for all creation, all that lives and grows, all the elements that combine to bring us a beautiful and wonder filled life, as it is.

Phen is a renowned, gifted and heart-led vegan chef whose experience and skills create nourishment for body and soul.  His delicate and thoughtful combinations of flavour and texture bring delight to the palate.

Together, and as temporary custodians of this beautiful land, we invite you to stay and experience reconnection with your senses, your surroundings and your path.  We offer you the space to be you and we welcome you to feast with us, learn with us and share with us!

It is a simple truth, (one that we all know deep down) that sometimes we need to stop and listen. 

Stop the mind chatter, stop the consumption, stop the messaging, stop the endless doing.

Listen to the wind in the trees, listen to the crickets in the grass, listen to the heart beating in our chests, listen to the quiet voice within, guiding the way.

What do we need to be able to stop and listen?

Again, a simple truth, a quiet place and a little time.

We welcome you to make use of our space and the time you have with us by telling us what you need, together we can figure out how best to support you.

It all starts with a conversation.

We believe that under the layers of civilisation, the smog of the city and the shame of modern culture, a happy, healthy wild and free being exists within us all, waiting to be found, loved and reconnected with all beings.  It's always a journey, it might be a long one, but it doesn't have to be lonely.
