Zen Garden: A magical and inspiring hidden paradise awaits you!
Welcome to our spacious, cosy and fully equipped studio-your home away from home. Whether you are travelling alone, with a companion or with loved ones, we have created the perfect retreat for you.
Nestled in 6.5 acres of private parkland, with breathtaking views of rolling hills and lush forests, it is the ideal escape. Your dog (or dogs) are more than welcome to wander freely in this vast open space during your stay.
Read what others are saying about us:
"My wife, our dog and I stayed at Yinli and August for 4 nights. Upon arrival, I soon realised that 3 nights would not be enough. We were on a road trip and decided to cancel another reservation to extend our stay by one night. Honestly, I could have stayed there for a month! It had everything I wanted: peace, nature and seclusion. The property is crossed by a small river, whose soothing sound became our perfect background music. It is in the middle of a large meadow, surrounded by apple, peach, fig and nut trees. Breakfast came straight from the garden! The silence was deep, and at night the sky was dotted with stars. The house itself was great-spacious, clean, with a large comfortable bed, underfloor heating and all modern conveniences. The hosts and their children were incredibly welcoming and attentive. We now know that this was the highlight of our entire trip-it will be hard to top what we experienced at Zen Garden. Thank you so much. We can't wait to come back! Deo Volente."
A personal note:
Dear Yinli and August, I hope this letter reaches you well. Be incredibly proud of what you have created here-it is truly a paradise. The attention to detail and love you have put into this place is inspiring. I have never felt so welcome and cared for during a stay. Our time in your home made us realise that this is exactly where we want to start a family. We will make every effort to come back. Yinli, we had a hard time saying it, but your cooking was amazing! Next time, we hope to make some Brazilian and Venezuelan dishes for you so you can taste our cuisine too. A big Latin hug to you all! 😄
Briefly:
Zen Garden is a great year-round destination. Whether you come in summer or winter, it is easily accessible, close to excellent restaurants, attractions and in winter just a short distance from ski slopes, resorts and relaxing thermal baths.

Restaurants, food & wine
There are numerous good and affordable restaurants in the area, where you will pay around €68 per person for a sumptuous dinner from the Michelin Guide. For lovers of naturism, a short distance away is the naturist paradise De Egelantier with a restaurant by the pool, clothed guests are also welcome.
Trips to Spain are easy by car, where you can enjoy fine dining or relax in one of the many hot springs. Don't forget the Pic du Midi, a highlight near Lourdes.
Activities
Along the house runs a clear river in which a small beach invites you to bathe and play. Fishing is possible, although trout are sometimes difficult to catch.
For those who like to exert themselves physically, there are ample opportunities close to home for hiking, climbing, making a cable trip across the river, lumbering or parachuting.
We also organise a one or two-day course on "preparing authentic Sichuan food, and dinner afterwards"
and a course in Chinese calligraphy and brush drawing, where possible on the terrace enjoying the summer and the beautiful view (for children there is an adapted programme).
