THE HOUSE'S STORIES

The garden's three rabbitsThey live free and will come up to you. What to do, what NOT to do.

Three rabbits live free in the garden, and they're a little family: Bing is the father, Ichigo (strawberry in Japanese, because she's reddish) is the mother, and Disney is their daughter — grown up now, but for us she'll always be the baby of the house. They have their own wrought-iron house under the palm, but they're outdoors almost all the time. They're used to people and they come up for a stroke — especially in the morning.

    Let them come to you

    Sit quietly. Within a few minutes one of the three will come up. Don't chase them — they're curious, if you wait they come to you.

  2. 02

    Strokes on the back

    Yes to strokes on the back and behind the ears. No to strokes on the tummy or the tail — they don't like it.

  3. 03

    No food from outside

    Do NOT bring vegetables from the supermarket, from your own lunch, from home. No bread, biscuits, sugary fruit, milk. Even things that seem harmless (brassicas, sugary fruit) are bad for them.

    Want some vegetables? We sort that out

    If you'd like to feed the rabbits, just tell us on arrival or via WhatsApp. We'll leave you the right vegetables directly — already chosen, in the amounts they can eat. You don't need to buy anything.

  5. 05

    Leave their house open

    The door of their wrought-iron house is always open. Don't close it — they go in on their own when it rains.
