“There is always a choice, no challenge too crazy and then you create freedom.”
In the spring of 2023, we, Nienke de Boer and Michel van Doorn, bought an accommodation with several apartments in Greece.
After several vacations and many trips through the Peloponnese, it was soon clear that if the opportunity ever presented itself to secure a place on this peninsula, we would figure out the plans for it.
In the summer vacations of 2022, we took stock: 4 children living out, a 7-year-old daughter living at home with us, a thriving goldsmith shop with 2 branches, a bed and breakfast in our newly renovated house in Friesland, and all in all, a lot of cozy hustle and bustle. All of these are choices we have always supported.
Plans are there to develop and adjust as we go along. And so, thanks to a drink at a Greek friend’s house in Metsovo, we ended up at this beautiful place in Epidaurus where we combine the vacation home with apartments with a design studio where Nienke still forges beautiful jewelry on commission for our clients.
The changing times, the realization that life goes very fast and a chronic shortage of skilled personnel in our ever-growing company made the decision final fairly quickly. We had to take this opportunity.
NEW AMBITIONS
In a completely new environment, we are inspired by space, tranquility and culture to then make people happy again. Overlooking the sea and mountains, we run a small vacation residence with several apartments, swimming pool, restaurant, bar and workshop for designing and forging the jewelry. On the plot of about 9000 m2 just outside the village, in addition to orange – and lemon trees, there are 130 olive trees from which we make olive oil and sell it. By combining and combining our strengths, we achieve our ultimate goal here. Our strongest attributes manifest themselves in creativity, craft, design and culinary hospitality. Together we call this: FREEDOM!
We look forward to welcoming you to one of our lodgings!
