Our Natural Houses – Bluesberry Woods

People ask me sometimes where I learned to
build natural houses. I tell them in Kindergarten, when the table in
front of me was full of small things to build with, things we found in
the garbage or from nature. It was the playfulness that I can still
remember, how much joy that gave me. This is the main approach when I
build natural houses, intuitively but with enough common sense. I like
to share the experience of building and living in a natural house, as it
makes such a difference in how we experience life. In the last seven
years we had the pleasure to have hundreds of guests and tens of
volunteers whose eyes and senses were opened.

Other places and structures we’ve built in the last years.

The Bird's House

The cob (clay, sand straw and water) we used came from a few meters away, literally taken up from the earth.

Inside the Bird's House

It’s fully insulated, but the windows are single glass, that let the sunlight in easier to warm up the space inside.
The Bird’s House is available for longer stays and inquiries can be emailed at info@bluesberrywoods.com

The Coffee & Philosophy Cafe

A space for our guests to cook, eat and meet.

The Coffee & Philosophy Cafe

Built with recycled, natural and reclaimed materials

The Workshop

It has a reciprocal roof with a skylight that provides a spread-out natural light during the day. It was extremely low-cost and does not have heating but it gives me a lot of joy to have all my hand tools in one place.

					  Very special place. Dennis and his partner have created their own place. A lot of creativeness building the houses, the garden, the place 

We, a couple, stayed in the... read more treehouse. It was a bit magic to sleep there, haven’t slept so well in along time. 

No mosquitoes which I was a bit worried about.

You could explore their garden with their different construction and art  projects. Gave a lot of inspiration and laughs. 

We barbecued in the evening, having  a nice chat with the family that stayed at the same time . There was breakfast in the morning if you wanted. Self-serving.

Felt very welcomed, relaxed. Can highly recommend Dennis place, if you want a  place in the nature, very different from a regular cottage or hotel.

					  I've had the most wonderful stay at this magical place.

I've spent 6 nights in the Treehouse and I loved every single second. 

Everything is built so thoughtful and... read more fits the environment.

You'll wake up to the sound of birds and the sunshine kissing your face thru the windows.

Breakfast is fantastic and includes everything you need, including handpicked berries from the garden.

There's also access to a beautiful Lake, which is a 35 minutes walk away and leads you thru the beautiful forest, which is loaded with blueberries.

Dennis, Ayet and Fredericke are such wonderful people with a kind soul and always up for a chat or a deep conversation.

This place for sure has a good energy.

Thank you very much.

					  This little Oasis in the middle of the woods is just as peaceful and beautiful as the description.  We really enjoyed our night there and would have actually loved... read more to have more time to look into each artful crafted house and building, but we had to get going. It was really beautiful, and we enjoyed them both so much as hosts! Recommended!
