Two girls are sitting by the pond, digging their feet in the water, and it occurs to them that they could build a design cabin there, where they could go. And one more that they will rent.

And a few years later, Martina Svobodová and Monika Bruknerová are standing in Krabčice near Jaroměř. On 7.5 hectares of large land, on which lie two ponds, a forest and a meadow, small refuges, hidden from the world, are already in their heads. It started with an innocent idea, ending with a plan to indulge dozens of people, immersed in office chairs, with leaf therapy and chirping.

At the moment, there are 2 caravans, 3 sittings and 1 cottage in the Krabčice complex, which completely blend in with the surrounding nature. They are far enough apart for everyone to enjoy that lost sense of complete privacy, yet close enough to the village so that vacationers do not feel like exiles. Here, trade the frantic pace for timelessness, staring at e-mails for looking at the clouds, and catching the bus for dancing across the meadow. It may sound trivial, but it's not without reason that glamping is gaining popularity around the world.

Nature + comfort = glamping

Do you need to escape from the city and wander among the trees, but at the same time you don't want to give up breakfast in bed and soft mattresses? Then glamping is perfect for you. There are two maringotkas in Krabčice. One in the meadow, one by the water. Nature breathes on you from the glass walls, and the carefully furnished interior gives you coziness and peace.

These meringue cakes are for two. Because it's better to rest in two. As soon as you open your eyes, even at noon, you will be overwhelmed by the surrounding greenery. Forget the cursed morning rituals of checking Facebook and emails. You are offline here. One with the other. Enjoy it.

If you don't like waking up to a cold morning, you can warm up in the gas stove. And in order not to say that we are too strict with you about the offline thing, you have a socket at your disposal. We obtain energy using solar panels. So you can charge your mobile here, read a (long-put-off) book, or you can look into each other's eyes by the light of a lamp until the morning grouse.

In the interior, we combine a modern minimalist approach with the aesthetics of the 1950s. Relax in a refurbished Kropáček-Koželka armchair and cover yourself with pillows and throws in the style of Nordic hygge.

Maringotka is 18 m2, so you will certainly understand that we had to place the toilet outside. The epic wooden bathroom with toilet offers comfortable seating and a beautiful experience through a glass window into nature.

There is also a shower with warm water waiting outside. Privacy is ensured by a bamboo fence. For continuous hygiene, you can use a stylish sink with a jug directly in the maringotka or a sink in the bathroom. Or just jump into the pond! This is something that is hard to enjoy anywhere else.

Resting means "not worrying". So you'll find a fragrant breakfast outside the door when you decide it's the right time to get up. On request, we can also equip the refrigerator with our own pickled delicacies, local food, wine and beer from small breweries.

It's up to you whether you enjoy breakfast at the table, on the terrace, with your feet in the creek, or on a blanket in the meadow. You can prepare coffee or tea yourself on the gas stove. The kitchenette is equipped for preparing small snacks, but you probably won't cook sirloin there.

If it is just after the rain, put on the boots (which you have available from us) and go to the forest for mushrooms. We won't be angry if you tell us some good mushroom spots. We can richly reward them for them.

In the caravan you will find books, blankets, speakers and board games. If you don't want to go out, you don't have to. But it would be a shame.

GRANDMA'S VALLEY AND PLEASURE

North of Česká Skalica is the beautiful Babiččino údolí. You will be welcomed by a sandstone sculpture by Ota Gutfreund, you will walk:
nature trail,
the Empire chateau Ratibořice, in which the princess lived,
Old Bleach with Museum and
a raft, during which Viktorka went completely insane.

If you gave up a holiday by the sea this year, you don't have to mourn. The Rozkoš Dam also has a natural, seaside atmosphere. You can fish, surf and fool around on inflatable boats.

KUKS

After a sports afternoon, you can go on a slightly more ticklish trip. Sculptural allegories of vices and virtues by Matyáš Braun keep you on the terrace in front of the hospital in Kuks. In the vicinity of the Baroque statues, there are still three lime trees, planted in 1732 in front of the inn "U Zlatého slunce". Originally a spa town, where cream from all over Europe came to the beginning of the 18th century, it was devastated by several floods after the death of Count Šporek, and mainly by the lack of interest of his heirs. Although you will no longer find a castle, a summer house or the original bridge with statues of harlequins here, there is still something to look at. The breathtaking Baroque complex around the Hospital has undergone extensive reconstruction and since 2015 you can admire it in full parade.

In Kuks, the spa has already rung, but in Velichovky it is still a hit. A beautiful city full of peace and spa buildings, it has been moving stiff joints for more than 120 years.

MILETÍN

If you have not been inspired by the region of Barbora Panklová, or you want to continue in the literary footsteps, head to Miletín. Here you will find the birth house of Karel Jaromír Erben. Directly from here, take the nature trail, where you will meet Polednice and find yourself at the former execution site of the poem Daughter's Curse. To drive away the goosebumps from horror places, have traditional Miletín gingerbread prayers in one of the confectioneries.

You can go on trips on foot or by bike. The foothills of the Krkonoše Mountains are full of cycling trails.

And then come back to us again. Sit in a caravan or with a rod by the pond, walk among the trees and recharge your batteries for the next few months.

Although we love children, we know that enjoying peace, relaxation and excitement is much better without them. Therefore, the caravan is designed for two adult lodgers. But we certainly don't prevent you from coming, for example, just a mother with a daughter or a father with a son. Such a trip can completely change your relationship. We have already seen various miraculous changes here!
