Erilainen majoitus koululla
Tilaa oli luokkahuoneellisen verran. Rauhallista nukkua. Aamupala omatoiminen, mutta riittävä ja monipuolinen. Kuopion keskustaan 5 min. kävely.

Ihana kodinomainen tunnelma. Aamiaistarvikkeet talon puolesta, itse laitettiin ja hyvin toimi! Tänne tullaan toistekin, jos ollaan koulujen loma-aikaan Kuopiossa. Paikkahan toimii yleensä Steinerkouluna.
