Domek w Rycerce 

On the one hand, the glow of a bonfire and the closeness of nature, and on the other, all the amenities of civilization. You will find us on the slope of Praszywki Mountain - 150 m from the main road, on the edge of the Landscape Park, on a large, forested plot. There is a stream nearby, the view from the windows is stunning, and in winter access may be difficult because it is steep here. So, when it's slippery and knee-deep in snow, a 4×4 car is welcome. Chains are mandatory. If you can't climb to our place, you can park on the main road with a friendly host. We can also take you to the house in an off-road vehicle. Each of our two houses has a separate entrance gate and a parking space at the entrance for 2 cars. We have decorated the wood-smelling houses with heart and attention to detail. We wanted every hiker, skier and vacationer to feel great here and that you would not lack anything. Every nook and cranny of the houses hides beautiful objects. In the lower House, the entrance is guarded by an Angel, and in the upper House, by a Pieta. Inside, the warmth of the fireplace spreads throughout the interior. Remember that if you spend a lot of money downstairs, it will be really hot upstairs. For complete comfort, a constant temperature is ensured by central electric heating. In each house we have a cozy living room with a fireplace, a dining table, a kitchen and sleeping places for 6 people. In the Lower House, on the ground floor, in addition to the living room with a fireplace, there is a bathroom with a shower, a dressing room and a fully equipped kitchen. Climb the wooden stairs to the first floor and there are 3 cozy bedrooms (one room with 2 double beds, 2 rooms with single beds, a bathroom with a stylish pistachio bathtub and gold accessories, and a wardrobe in the hall. The garden is a mountain oasis of rest. There is a shelter with a fireplace, table and benches waiting for you - here you can spend pleasant evenings, summer afternoons, whole nights and breakfast mornings. There is also a portable gas grill, a place to play badminton, a swing and a hammock at your disposal. Absolutely everyone's favorite place is the observation deck surrounding the house. There you can relax on a deckchair, spread out a yoga mat, admire the clouds rushing across the sky and read, read, read. The Upper House has an open stone terrace with a barbecue, with arcades, and on the first floor there is a large wooden terrace with a beautiful view of the forest and mountains. On the ground floor there is a hall with a dressing room, a toilet and a room with a Finnish sauna and a hot tub. The first floor is a living room with a fireplace with a water jacket that heats the entire house, a kitchenette (under-counter refrigerator, electric stove with oven, dishwasher, coffee machine for ground coffee (the same as in the lower house), electric kettle, toaster, blender, hand mixer), dining corner (table for 6 people), exit to the wooden terrace and from it access to the garden (bench with table, deckchairs on the terrace).

In addition, a gas grill and a fireplace await you in the gazebo at the Lower House, and a gas grill in the Upper House. You can put on the grill meat, vegetables, cheese or whatever your imagination tells you. If you want cheese, go to Bacówka, which is about 1.5 km from the House. There you will find delicious local sheep cheese. We will guide you on how to get there. Another place where cheese reigns supreme is Rajcza. Serowa Kraina is a cheese-making cooperative created by enthusiasts. There you can buy cottage cheese, goat cheese, blue Charollais goat cheese, Paradise cheese with additives, e.g. with black cumin, smoked cheeses, and even ricotta and long-ripening cheeses. Here you can also buy fresh milk, butter, cream and home-made preserves. For homemade dinners, delicious, impeccable, as at the hands of grandma Zosia, go to the Krepol Holiday Centre. You can get there on foot (400 m). You can order full board there, including compote.

The neighborhood is quiet, peaceful and smells of forest. There is time for leisurely hiking in the mountains. There is a stream flowing right next to it, a view like from a postcard, the proximity of Slovak neighbors, empty trails for the ambitious and families with kids. You will need a really long vacation to get through everything, or a few visits to Domek Dolny or Górny in Rycerka. You can go back in time and listen to music from cassette tapes and vinyl records, sleep well in peace and quiet and set out on the trail in the morning after breakfast.
