Ubud Contemporary Eco Bali Lumbung

Our quiet, safe, open-air-living, contemporary Bali-style Eco lumbung located 10 minutes drive north of Ubud is situated on one very large lush garden property with amazing views of pristine rice fields in every direction. The lumbung is actually one of 3 homes on our property - built in a traditional Balinese rice barn style using coconut wood frame with woven bamboo walls and thatched roof. This building practice keeps the house cool both day and night. A conscious decision to use bamboo and sustainable building materials as much as possible was the goal for this home. Contemporary styling with Western comforts makes our lumbung cosy and completely functional for writers, artists, travelers or yogis with a keen desire to have a unique Bali experience.

The lumbung offers wireless internet throughout, a fully equipped Western style kitchenette with oven (a real luxury in Bali), an open air bathroom with koi pond, a large sofa bed downstairs for lounging inside, a wrap around veranda with pristine rice field views, lots of storage, and outdoor dining. Upstairs is a retreat into true Bali style with Western necessities; a thatched roof, gorgeous bamboo flooring, handmade 100% cotton batik sheets on a King size bamboo bed, mosquito net, a large work table/desk,and more of those gorgeous rice field views to the east and full moon rise.

The Lumbung has 2 staff to look after the property: Ketut our house cleaning women who does an absolutely fantastic job of keeping the house clean and tidy, she will also do your laundry, and Wayan the gardener, also fantastic.

We do have pets, 1 cat Pepper taken in as a stray by my daughter as a kitten, now fully grown and 2 inseparable dogs Vic and Bianca. These animals live mainly at the big house when I am not in Bali and are taken care of by the staff.
