Consent Beyond the Bedroom: Consent at Feÿtopia is not confined to sexual contexts. Whether it's a group activity or a one-on-one conversation, consent is about ensuring everyone involved is on the same page. 

How we understand consent: Getting consent is the act of making sure everyone involved in a given activity is able to give their ok, understands what’s going on, and willingly chooses to engage in that activity. The basics are simple. The application of consent is complex, emotional, and takes practice. Consent must be informed, reversible, and willfully given. 

Altered States: In situations involving substances, tread very carefully. Consent gets trickier, particularly with people you have not had close intimacy with before. Clear, sober conversations beforehand about boundaries and desires are vital. 

Authentic Participation: Asking and receiving verbal consent can be a good practice, but the body speaks, too. Pay attention to non-verbal cues – they're often louder than words. In doubt, check-in, or take a step back. 

Power: Power dynamics, often subtle and complex, are part of any social group. They manifest in various forms within communities– social standing, resource disparities, knowledge asymmetry - and intersect with wider power structures.  Being aware of your own privilege and power over others is essential when practicing consent.  Acknowledging these is the first step towards ensuring they don't undermine our collective effort to create a respectful and inclusive space.

Relationship History: The camaraderie and physical closeness you will observe may have been nurtured over years. Respect the uniqueness of each bond and don’t assume this proximity automatically transfers to you. Take time to organically build relationships with people. 

Please do not take calls in co-working areas. Calls are to be taken your own room, open rooms, or the call box located on the ground floor.

Open Room Policy: to leave the room you occupy available to those who need an isolated space to make calls during the day, you can indicate a room is open by leaving the door open/ using a sign but PLEASE do not use clean rooms - only occupied rooms by fellow feytopians.

Follow the signs and embrace the art of Disco Dishwashing—good karma flows to those who wash a dish or two at Feytopia!

To limit our contribution to climate change and keep the energy bill to a reasonable level we embrace energy sobriety. To support:
* Do not change the heating settings in your rooms. If you are cold, try putting on a few more layers <3.

* Close open doors at all times. Keep windows closed at all times.

* Make a fire to spread the heat. (Fires are only allowed in the dining room and main salon room)

This season all bookings, extensions of stays and checking in of guests must be requested and confirmed via email at hello@feytopia.com.

You will have white towels for use in your room and a sauna towel on your bed when you arrive. Should you need any additional laundry each building has a self-service linen closet at your disposal.

Use the outside washing machines, the indoor ones are strictly reserved for the Fey team. If you need help to locate the outside machine, ask someone.

If you are the last to leave a room, blow out the candles!

Before heading to bed, the last one up should turn off all lights, extinguish all candles, and ensure the fireguards are in place.

Feÿtopia is fully vegetarian*. Please express diet preferences and food hopes & dreams when you arrive on the white board in the breakfast room - we will try to accommodate if appropriate. Grocery stores are available for complementary purchase to adapt to your personal needs.

Be ready to participate! We are a community who believes it’s more about what you give than what you get. We cook for each other, eat together and always try to leave places better than how we found them. For example, we always wash, dry, and put away our dishes. We take turns hosting events for each other. We party and clean together because we love each other 💞.

*For the carnivores among us, keep your ears open in residence for whispers of meat club…

Emotional Ecologists & Community Discussions:The Emotional Ecologists are your go-to for support and mediation. They host weekly sharing circles. The community will host regular workshops and discussions to explore and understand personal boundaries.

Self and Collective Accountability: At Feÿtopia, empowerment is important. Feel confident to speak up or check-in if something doesn't sit right with you. We are here to support each other, and self-reliance and boundary awareness are equally important.

Shared Responsibility and Participation towards collective care: Each of us holds some responsibility for the people we invite to Feÿtopia. Should an issue arise with someone you introduced into the collective, we encourage you to be part of the solution. 

Continuous Learning: Learning about how to create meaningful and flourishing relationships is a journey. It's about evolving together, turning experiences into lessons, and building a culture of mutual respect and support.

Always clean after yourself, and leave spaces better than you found them.

Please support the staff and remove your bed sheets before leaving ! It is a small gesture that will make the life of the staff much easier !
