Catering:
This year’s Summer School will be exclusively self-catering, which means that everyone will have to take care of their own meals. There are shopping possibilities available within a pleasant walking distance, close to the site, and there is also a restaurant where you can choose from a daily special menu or order from the regular menu with reasonable prices. There are also vegetarian options available at the restaurant. Unfortunately, it is not possible to organise communal meals centrally on site but friends can eat together at the restaurant.
The accommodation has a large communal kitchen which can be used and can accommodate up to 10 people at a time, but there are no utensils; cutlery, plates and mugs.
