For those seeking adventure, camping is possible in the upper area, featuring a private camping space with internet access, lighting, and power outlets. The prime areas are thoroughly cleared and trimmed in the surroundings.
Guests will also have access to our private waterfall with small natural pools, known as 'Cachoeira da Mão Divina,' located at the bottom of the property.

Other things to note
1) There is a swing with stone brackets and a high horizontal hammock on the deck facing the lawn. Additionally, there is a solarium (viewpoint) and a high balcony on the upper floor, in the bedroom. Because of this, we consider our space more suitable and secure for adults and young individuals.
