In the middle of the Green Lungs of Poland, in the traditional Masurian farm, really far away from the hustle of the city is the President's cat, and Olek and Madzia, the real pigs of the Złotnicka breed. And this is only part of the adventure that has become a dream come true.
We overcame hundreds of kilometers to replicate Masurian buildings: we scrutinized, meticulously analyzed, we collected hundreds of building materials and invited local artists to collaborate. We learned diligently and worked hard to finally look at what we were able to accomplish and say that this is what it is.
We invite you to a place of peace and quiet where animals and people live in symbiosis. We invite you to our kitchen, where food heals and makes you happy. Miłkowiec invites you!
At your disposal we give the climate rooms a place inspired by local folklore.
By reconstructing the region-specific prewar World War I farm, we took care to reproduce every detail. Architectural information was derived from specialist publications, chronicles and archival photographs. Additionally, we have been inspired by numerous travels around the region and the open air museum in Olsztyn.
For the construction of the Folwarku we used hand-made brick from the area of Lubelskie Kraśnik - in our opinion, similar to the traditional building of mazurian clay and field stone. Tile to cover slabs, so-called. "Dutch", was acquired on the occasion of numerous renovations - thanks to courtesy of the inhabitants of Warmia and Mazury we covered our buildings with authentic, historic raw material. The window joinery was made for special order by one of the companies specialized in the old craft techniques.
We also made sure that the rooms were as comfortable as possible with respect to the canon. The furniture was made according to local patterns, and some of them are authentic antiques undergoing careful renovations. At the decoration of the rooms we asked a friend of Masurian artist - the painter to decorate the walls with his paintings and to put on motifs related to the local nature.
Guest rooms are located in the premises, which also refer to the name of the farm. And so we have:
TROJAK - Originally a place of accommodation for agricultural workers, today a modern and environmentally friendly residential building.
THE HOUSE OF MANAGEMENT - As it turned out, the most impressive of all the farm buildings, historically emphasizing the status of the owner administering it.
CHLEWISH - Formerly buzzing building for pigs. Today - built from scratch, hand-made brickwork, delusively reminiscent of original, clay buildings.
SZOPKA - A member of the Management Board, is an interesting example of Mazurian construction - completely wooden and erected from logs.
GORZELNIA - Symbol of Folwarku, a banquet-conference and residential facility, a design referring to the Interwar, Secession and Art Déco.
You will not find discounts on our products, and we are quite critical about this. We use products that grow in our garden, or we obtain them from our local producers. As you can see, this food is not "anonymous", its origin is known, which makes the food prepared from it healthy and valuable and delicious.
In our kitchen are often the king of cereals and rice. We are supporters of poultry meat - turkey, rabbit, chicken, goose or duck, coming from homeland. Fish from our lakes. Own vegetables without pesticides and fertilizers.
We do not use shortcuts.
See you there are loads of things:
Pottery Village in Kamionka - a social enterprise founded on the initiative of the Nidzica Foundation for Development NIDA. The Pottery Village was established with the intention of cultivating ancient folklore craft traditions, technology and customs. In addition to the sale of hand-made goods, there are also folk art workshops and historical-natural history lessons devoted to the region.
Garden of Eden
Situated in the vicinity of the Garncarska Village, the show garden can boast of 30 thematic corners with several thousand species of plants. In the garden paradise are organized teaching classes.
Grunwald Fields
Place of historic battle, which occurred in 1410 between Polish-Lithuanian and Teutonic troops. Thousands of knights from all over Europe and more than 100 thousand spectators participate in annual fights.
Besides a whole lot of historical monuments, Landscape Parks (as in Mazury :)) and Reserves.
For the more active, there are numerous bike trails and a water trail along the Łyna River, paintball in the closed village of "Malga" with preserved ruins of a church tower or a former military training ground with a command tower in Sadek, as if we did not recommend the ski lift in the ride :)
Children are waiting for the Milkowieckie Mini Zoo. Little guests will be under the delight of our Small Farm. Self-picking eggs from hens will be a challenge, but above all great fun. Feeding rabbits or goats will also fall into the memory of the Little One. A couple of our Pigs pigs can raise the fear of their size, but Madzia and Olek are really a nice couple! Like dark-wool sheep of heather, which is as many as 30 pieces.
In addition, children will have a playground and an educational garden where they can taste vegetables straight from the beds, which are devoid of pesticides.
