At a glance
Welcome to Podlasie. In Tofiłowce, where stork nests tower overhead, wooden houses have not gone out of fashion for hundreds of years, churches are located in the vicinity of the church, and during Easter, you can hear the Orthodox greeting 'Chrystos Woskresie', we have our estate. Behind the Bridge on the Orlanka River. Here roadside crosses stand at the edge of every village, storks, bison, cobblestones, wild rivers and vast stretches of fields continue for miles. Białowieża, which surrounds our village and farms that look as if they did not know that we are in the 21st century.
In such idyllic circumstances, 8 years ago we assumed that this good should be shared. We inherited an estate behind a wooden fence from our parents and we started working. Now we have 3 independent exclusive-use houses for you. Two operate seasonally, from April 1 to November 1 (they do not have good heating), and one is all year round. For couples, families, groups of friends, cyclists, anglers, ornithologists, dog lovers, seekers of peace and flavours with lots of pork rinds. You can make a fire, warm up by the fireplace in the gazebo, feed our friendly stork Ziutek, admire beautiful horses at our neighbour's place, milk a cow at another's. You can visit the straw-roofed house, admire the Land of Open Shutters, go cross-country skiing or admire the beautiful sunsets. Fight boredom with potato pancakes, sausage and an anthill cake, drink away the silence with the traditional Knyszyńska "Bukwicówka".
As a self-proclaimed local guide, I have great satisfaction when I can tell you about our flavours, monuments, customs and rituals. On the culture of national minorities. I will show you what prosfora looks like, tell you about the Podlasie ritual cloth, about folk healers, I will sing Konopielka songs, I will tell you where to buy country eggs, rennet cheese, the best kartacz, honey and local beer.
We are happy to share our garden with motorhomes and those who want to sleep in tents. However, be careful with the mushrooms. There are Penny Bun mushrooms behind the barn!
We invite you to Podlasie all year round. Fruit trees are always blooming in May. In the summer, we soak our feet in the river and mow the grass, in the autumn, leaves can be raked every day, and in winter, snow is ploughed over and over again. That's country life.

Host:
Irena
We speak these languages: Polish, Ukrainian
We are on-site, we give our guests space and intimacy, but we're always ready to help
I'm Irka, a native of Podlasie, a nature enthusiast, a lover of traditions and customs, a person always open to people. I am a walking tourist information centre, and as a retired teacher, I am 100% committed to my mission. It is with great pleasure that I will share with you not only my estate, but also the secrets and legends about Podlasie, I will tell you where to go on a bicycle trip, and where to get the best kartacz. I speak the Podlasie dialect, sometimes I make a potato cake, I sing. I am part of a folk band (we sing in Belarusian, Ukrainian, Russian and Polish), so I will be happy to teach you a regional song, and I will treat you with the spirit of the forest by the fire. I feel fulfilled because many guests return to the estate, I have made friendships with many, I have been a comforter and confidant many times. Sometimes it seems to me that I have a universal key to people's hearts. I invite you to Podlasie, let me get to know you, and I will share the best of everything I have.
