Today, there would be no Wozownia if it had not been for one decision made over 70 years ago.
When the war broke out, Jan was a flapper, when it ended - a distinguished radio operator with orders. They told him: you can choose a house in this area and live in it. Jan came from Rzeszów, but he dropped everything and chose - in our opinion - the best house possible, twenty meters from the river, right next to the forest. When he married Bronisława, there were still a carriage, a sleigh and a carriage in the yard. Before the war, the building located by the road was used as a garage at that time.
Until the end of her days, Grandma Bronisława would not let anything change at home. Renovations, however, were becoming inevitable. I showed up every now and then with a drill, and this with a hammer, and I fixed it a bit. And then I went all the way: I had to tear down the floors, restore the falling roof. Together with Dominika, we have created an agritourism that fully draws on the charms of the Bóbr Valley - we organize canoeing trips with start right next to the house. We invite you, we will show you our river.
In Wozownia we have 3 rooms for you:
- a double room with one double bed,
- two five-bed rooms with a pull-out sofa in the lower part and three single beds on the mezzanine.
All rooms have their own bathroom.
On the ground floor there is a common area - a kitchen and a dining room with tables and sofas, as well as a small children's corner. The room is very bright thanks to the large windows, so in case of bad weather it is a perfect place to spend time together. For the same purpose, we also developed the building of the former forge, which is located right on the river.
The house is located by the road, and directly behind it the Bóbr flows, to which you can go down in literally 3 minutes. Just cross the road, cross the wooden bridge and you are on the shore. On the other side of the house we have a garden with sun loungers, hammocks and a fireplace with a view of the surroundings.
On the ground floor of the house there is a large, open space with a communal kitchen, dining room and relaxation area. You can easily boil it - you will find all the necessary equipment on site. You can buy fresh eggs from our neighbor, and for more local delicacies you can visit the market in Jelenia Góra on the weekend. However, if you prefer to eat outside, we have some of our recommendations for you (check the list below). At least a few good restaurants can be combined with trips around the area - for example, as part of a lunch trip to the beautifully situated Pearl of the West Gościniec, you can walk along the walking paths surrounding Modre Lake.
There are many attractions around our house, the main of which are, of course, kayaking on the Bóbr River, which we also offer as Rainbow Rafting. We start them right next to the coach house. The length of the trip will be selected according to your wishes and possibilities. We highly recommend this option to everyone, because there is no better way to get to know the picturesque Bóbr than to admire its charms from the kayak level :)
Wozownia is a great place for people who like to spend time actively, because in the immediate vicinity of the house we have beautiful walking / running paths, bicycle routes, as well as routes running through the Bóbr Valley Landscape Park. We recommend hiking trails starting in Wleń (approx. 2.5 km from us) and Pilchowice (approx. 3 km). You can also see local historical and natural monuments:
- The prince's castle in Wleń with the Góra Zamkowa Nature Reserve
- dam, bridge and railway tunnel in Pilchowice,
- sandstone rock formations in the surrounding forests,
- The ducal tower in Siedlęcin,
- Nielestno railway station and the railway bridge - the location of the first scene from the movie "How I Unleashed World War II".
We also know small riverside beaches and nice picnic spots in the area.
The Bóbr Valley has wonderful neighbors - the Foothills and the Kaczawskie Mountains, the Jelenia Góra Valley, and the Izery. A one-day trip to the Land of Extinct Volcanoes (10 minutes by car) or on the Izera trails (about half an hour here) is within reach - if you do not know this area, we will gladly tell you where you can have a good time.
What’s there for children?
Children can be shown many interesting places that stimulate their imagination - the old castle, ravine and waterfall in the Landscape Park or extinct volcanoes, such as Ostrzyca Proboszczowicka. There will be no boredom, because the local attractions can be used to create a very varied program, from which children will derive a lot of joy and knowledge. On site, we have a garden with a swing, and in the common part of the coach house, a corner with games, toys, hula hoops and a table with chairs.
