Quick check
Just so you know (if you didn't already know), Osturňa is the longest municipality in Slovakia. It is 9 km long, and in order to get to know its stories and secrets more easily, we recommend that you take your bicycles with you. And a map. On the border of the Tatras and the Pieniny Mountains, the Zamagura landscape stretches out in front of you. You simply have to see it for yourself. You can also find rumors here. Perhaps the monk Cyprian did not arrive here, over the Osturnian creek, but the Ruthenians did come, so put your ears up and listen to their Osturnian hvara.
It is worth taking more things with you to Osturno, not just bicycles. In winter, pack your skis or cross-country skis, because Ždiar is right behind one of the nearest hills, and you can find cross-country trails in the immediate vicinity. And it is definitely worth focusing your eyes and looking for the blue color in the grooves of the cottages. It is said, according to the story of the rafters, that it symbolizes the predatory Dunajec river tearing its way between the Pieniny rocks. Precisely among those that were declared the first (!) International nature park in Europe. And stay with those colors for a moment and notice the shutters. They are white, red and blue - once upon a time they were a sign for bachelors whether a single virgin, a married woman or a widow lives in a given cottage.
And how does it look here? We have a small house in a quiet street, not far from a small stream, in which the beer cools perfectly in the summer. We also have a terrace with a view of the forest, without unnecessary fences, and a proper yard for football. If you need to work, there is a place for a home office and a connection to the net, and when you have had enough, you can jump to the leafy and coniferous neighbors. Don't expect as much traffic as at the main station, because the bus passes through the village maybe twice a day, but be sure to count on village noises. Our obnoxious neighbors will definitely let you know about themselves by roaring or shouting. So if you are no stranger to such an environment and want to get to know our version of holy peace - feel free to come!

My husband and I both come from Pienín and although we live elsewhere, we often and often return home. That is why the idea of the Cradle of Peace has stuck in our heads - so that we can show our friends, acquaintances and the world the region we come from. A region that offers an incredible amount of natural beauty, opportunities for hiking, biking, lounging and completely off from the routine.
The name of our cottage describes the essence of Osturna and the mountains embracing it. Complete peace and quiet. So you hear rattling dogs or roaring cows and swording sheep :) But it won't be the sound of the city. And that view of the forest ...
And when we don't want to laze anymore, we are kept company by bicycles and nature or by our friends and family. In the Cradle of Peace, we spend time with those we love and as our soul demands.
Where will I sleep?

Without pets
The real Cradle of Peace in Osturno on the Slovak-Polish border and on the border of the Tatras and Pienín. Wooden two-storey cottage with 5 bedrooms is suitable for 12 people, even for the smallest. Sitting on the terrace or by the fireplace, but also rich opportunities for sports activities in summer and winter.
What do I find on the spot?
