Local architects say the region has strong linear elements. We will say even more: The landscape of Svencelé, seen from above, is reminiscent of a painting by Pablo Picasso. Field planes look like geometric shapes. Road and canal lines are broken, angled. The forms of architectural buildings are also strict, without decorations. The general colors of the image are pure, well contrasting: water, grass, sand. It is logical that there is no more natural and symbolic element in this art composition than a black cube. So welcome to the house in Svencelje!

True, black cubes - and cubes of various other colors - you will see more than one here, you can get lost. Follow the navigation instructions, get around the swamps and moose safely, and when you smell the sea and see power kites hanging in the air, you are probably at home. Next, everything is simple: you make coffee, sit on the terrace, wave to your neighbors, watch the kites. Unless you are a bully yourself, then another plan. In any case - carpe diem.

When you follow the navigation instructions, you will see two identical black cube-shaped houses. Seen from Svencelė Street, our house is on the left, with each other and our neighbor we call it SECOND. Inside, you will find enough sleeping accommodation for a group of six, although it would be most comfortable to stay for four.

The cottage is very bright and spacious thanks to the large windows. On both floors we have upholstered furniture for comfortable laziness, but if space is short, there are two more sitting bags, folding chairs, a balcony and a terrace with outdoor furniture.

On the ground floor you will find a kitchen and a dining table for 4-6 people to sit on. The second has two double bedrooms and a shower room. The central part of the first floor is separated from the second by a glass partition, so being at the top you can always see what is being made in the kitchen :).

The lagoon is the most fishy freshwater body in the region. If you love seafood, be sure to buy them from local fishermen. We can recommend the fish shop "Smiltalė" in Kintai - there is always fresh smoked fish here. By the way, next to it you will see the famous Kintai bakery "Backerei", where you can get aromatic breakfast buns.

The cottage’s kitchen and dining room have everything you need to prepare your own meals: coffee machine, kettle, stove, crockery and utensils, large fridge. You will cook fresh fish or meat on a live fire (there is a grill with tools). If cooking stalls, you can walk a few steps closer to the lagoon where the café is open during the season, or drive to Drevern or Kintai.

We are far enough away from the hustle and bustle of the town to enjoy peace and privacy without hindrance. You can stay out of the place around the clock. Check out local legends about giants, admire the views through the windows. By the way, from the upper floor of the house you will see the high dunes of the Curonian Spit, famous for their name Dead or Dead. They deserved this name because of the swollen settlements buried under the sand between 1675 and 1934. There are other little-known stories related to these neighborhoods. For example, there were once in the dunes not only villages but also large herds of cows. But hay for them was transported through the Marias, from our fertile fields.

For those who are tired of lazy rest, we invite you to try water sports. Svencelė has a shallow shore and a sufficiently stable wind - therefore here is one of the best places for power kites in Lithuania. Windsurfers, paddles, electric surfboards - if you are not yet familiar with all these pleasures, it will be a great opportunity to learn.

Want something more? We suggest looking around. It is possible to travel on foot or by car (eg to Dreverna, Kintai), but you will see much more by choosing the waterways: the Curonian Lagoon, the King Wilhelm Canal, the Minija, Dreverna or Nemunas rivers. We will advise where to rent a yacht, boat, boat or paddle board. You will take a ferry to Juodkrante and Nida.

In Dreverna itself, in the port of small boats, you can book an entertainment program - a culinary cruise "Fish Road" or other educational programs. More information will be provided by the Tourism Information Center in Dreverna, which can be found at the Jonas Gižas Ethnographic Homestead (Žvejų St. 13, Dreverna, klaipedosrajonas.lt).

The Curonian Lagoon region has many attractions for lovers of flora and fauna. Svencelė's natural resources are protected by the Telmological Reserve - the house of elk and sea eagles, and the Svencelė meadow botanical-zoological reserve, where various birds of wet meadows and reeds can be observed. Even more forest birds can be found on the road from Kintai to Svencelė (5 km one way). Deer, beavers, otters, Canadian mink, raccoon dogs, foxes, gray hares are also found here ...

We invite families with children: we can comfortably accommodate up to six people in the cottage. if you are staying with smaller children, ensure their safety by climbing the stairs to the second floor.
