We are in the Sejny region, in the border area. Two countries border each other and it is a miracle not to love the local nature. Because not only Poles and Lithuanians live here, but also a whole gang of animals: elks, lynxes and otters, white-tailed eagles, kites and blue kingfishers. You have a chance to spot one of them, because the habitat is surrounded by forests, there is a reserve nearby, and it is a three-minute walk to Lake Asharyn. Asharynis means in Lithuanian: perch lake. There we have a pier and a boat, so you can quietly try to see wild birds.
I spent my first night here in a tent set at the edge of the forest, with a fire lit and a telescope for star gazing. I had a hectare of land, silence and a dark sky overhead. There was only a hundred-year-old cottage on the plot. Today we have a habitat with two houses, surrounded by greenery, with a swimming pool and amenities. We invite you to the borderland.
Our habitat is located a few kilometers from the Polish-Lithuanian border. In the south, we are adjacent to nature reserves and the Augustów Primeval Forest. We have no neighbors in the immediate vicinity. On the other hand, there are plenty of lakes - the nearest one, Asharyn, can be reached in a few minutes.
The habitat consists of two houses, a garden, a SPA zone with a swimming pool, jacuzzi and sauna, two barbecue gazebos and a playground. In the garden you will also find a boho-style gazebo with an open-air cinema and hot banya.

The entire floor is occupied by three guest rooms: 2-bed, 3-bed and 4-bed, all with private bathrooms and terraces. Option for a larger group - two additional beds on the sofa in the living room.
On request, we deliver baskets with local delicacies to your door. In the basket you will find fresh rye bread, smoked fish, country eggs, sausage, meat, butter and cheese made by the lady from the village next door, jams of our production and sękacz - local cake, perfect for coffee (the contents of the basket may slightly differ depending on the season) ).
We leave the rest of the meals at your disposal. Each house has a fully equipped kitchen and a comfortable dining area.
Additionally, we encourage you to use the bonfire (sausage sticks and a cast iron pot on site) and two grill gazebos (one with a traditional wood briquette grill and a smokehouse, the other with an electric grill).
You can also go to nearby restaurants - we recommend a few below.
We respect the fact that everyone rests and charges their batteries differently. There are those who are focused on active recreation - they practice yoga in the morning, sail on a boat for half a day, the other half march around the nearby nature reserve, and in the evening they bake potatoes in a bonfire. There are also those who start the day with a coffee drunk slowly among fragrant flowers, at noon they lie on the mattress in the middle of the pool and watch the clouds, and in the afternoon they relax with a massage.
For a good start, we will recommend you a few things that you can do in the habitat:
- take advantage of a unique massage by the lake
- look for the abundance of Podlasie forests - blueberries, raspberries and mushrooms
- swim in the heated pool
- feast by the fire to the accompaniment of the guitar
- immerse yourself in the warm water of the jacuzzi late in the evening / at night
- take a boat on the lake
- listen to the wonderful sounds of nature from the nearby Łempis Reserve
- play board games or a ball with the kids
- bask in the sauna
- pack your picnic basket with summer treats and splash all day in the nearby lake
- watching the stars at night - the Podlasie sky looks unreal beautiful (our neighborhood is one of the least "polluted by light" cities in Poland)
- catch up on books
- have a good time with yourself
- go barefoot
There is no shortage of beautiful places to visit in the immediate vicinity. Here's what you can do in close proximity to the habitat:

What’s there for children?
The youngest are our honored guests. The village ignites children's curiosity and stimulates their natural creativity. There will be plenty of space to play - a hectare of fenced area awaits children. They can climb trees, blow planes downwind, play ball, play in the playground and splash in the pool. They will also like trips to the forests and to the nearby lake, where you can go boating with your parents.
