The house has 4 bedrooms, 1 king, 1 queen and 2 double/single bunks and sleeps 10. It has an outdoor pool looking over the ocean, rumpus room, very large living room, kitchen and large leather sofa in front of the fire. To take in the view even further there's even a tower with 2 large leather chairs where you can relax and watch the waves.

The house generates its' own electricity, catches its' own water, treats all waste through the worm farm and the fire heats water that is transmitted to each rooms hydronic panels for heating.

Other things to note
Beekeepers is an off-grid house in a private national park.The house is very modern and self-sufficient.This means that some things take guests back to the basics.The entire house has hydronic heating powered by an open fire.The electricity is generated from solar panels and stored in batteries, so it's important to turn lights off when not in use.
The driveway is 3 km long and made of gravel, so it's important not to bring low cars or cars with very low-profile tires.
It's a real back-to-nature experience in luxury.Being on the ocean, some days are sunny and calm and others rather windy.Either way, it's always spectacular!
