A 26-bed eco-lodge on an organic coffee farm in the mountains of Nicaragua that organise locally guided jungle treks to see howler monkeys, waterfalls and a butterfly farm. It is one of the farms on the tourist "coffee route" from Matagalpa, where you can visit other coffee cooperatives in the area. Owned by a nonprofit organisation and run by volunteers in North Carolina, the lodge is powered entirely by renewable energy sources (solar and hydro-electric) and 10 per cent of its income is invested in rural water projects and local schools.
