About
The house in the village is a social project born from the desire to protect Pellumbas, a small village in the heart of the mountains at only 20 km in the south of Tirana, threatened by disappearance due to economic problems.
We will be happy to welcome you in one of the dorms of our traditional Albanian village house or in the garden to camp but more than just have an accommodation, you will enjoy a temporal bubble in the middle of nature to connect, be inspired and share authentic experiences.
Becoming actors of the revitalization of Pellumbas, you will live the magic of the village and share activities that will immerse you in the daily life of the welcoming community : understanding the life and work of the villagers, learning how to cook culinary specialties, discovering the typical alcohol distillation, enjoying the wonders of the wild or simply relaxing among the fruit trees and the vegetable garden are some of the activities we are offering.
Projects
Construction of a trail
Pellumbas is known for his cave and river but because of the bad condition of the path, it is difficult to reach one site from the other. The project is to create a new trail which connects the cave to the river and come back to the village.
Protection of the oldest olive trees
Many olive trees are part of the soul of the village and we will build a small stone wall to protect and enhance the three oldest olive trees.
Adaptation of an animal shelter
Taking care of the animals are part of the daily life of the local community. With the idea to immerse you in this routine, we will adapt the animal shelter of the neighbors as a place to visit.
