Step into a special world where all things are delicious, the food, the atmosphere, the ethics of your hosts. Some of the food you eat is grown around you and tame eels can be hand fed while you wait for your meal of afterwards. Don't forget to wander about to see the creations hidden in the 'jungle' or along the paths and fence. Yes I love it here. Unfortunately they are closing at the end of April 2020 for daytime service. They will be open on Friday evenings.
