Let's put it this way - our Dača is an ordinary place for extraordinary people. It is not intended for everyone.
First, it is only for those who want to be alone in solitude. Alone with yourself or with your significant other. For those who want to clean their heads or fan the fire in their relationship. Secondly, for those who are not afraid of sheep, because you will be here on our family sheep farm. Trust us, we know each other in sheep, because we have been working together with pride and love for the third generation. We preserve traditions and If you want to milk sheep or pull cheese strings, we will teach you. And thirdly, it is for those who are not afraid of close encounters with insects or spiders. Of course, we will clean up here before your arrival, but what are we going to talk about - nature is all-powerful and you come here to renew a close relationship with it after all :)
She is a naughty girl, but for that, she is charming with romance, as it should be. So listen to the howl of the wind, chirping, the barking of foxes, or the bells of sheep. Let yourself be mesmerized by the way a spider weaves its web, listen to a lark sing its song, or watch the snowflakes fall silently into the world in winter.
Wake up with a cup of tea, fall asleep with a glass of wine. With a view of the majestic Choč and with heaven in your stomach from our farm delicacies.
You probably already guessed it, but we'll say it out loud - you're not coming to our hotel, but to the farm. Therefore, don't expect a 5* standard, and what you bring with you is what you take away ;)
The only barter we accept is that you shake off your worries and get a bunch of experiences for it. And perhaps a lump of our sheep's cheese.
DACA
Dača is hiding with us, on our sheep farm. You will be close to us, but you will still be far away so that you can safely enjoy your privacy.
We set aside a space where we built two wooden shelters with a terrace in the middle.
That one is for sleeping. You can stay here as a couple (two large single beds with a king size of 110 cm) or as a foursome, i.e. 2 big people and 2 small people (extra bed up to 150 cm).
The second shelter is for cooking, and we also hid a shower room there. And where does the king go? Along the path to your refuge at the back of the Dača :)
In the middle, you can sit on the terrace on the ground or on a bench, bathe your eyes in the colors of nature, and then calmly dip your feet in the pond. Or even the whole body. Refreshment guaranteed, especially in winter :)
One refuge for sleeping, the other for good food-creating. Here you will find everything you need for cooking, in addition to a double plate, also basic food, so that you can prepare simple dishes to your liking or even stick pies - on the plate or in the oven. Everything you need will be waiting for you.
BASKET FROM A SHEEP FARM
We look forward to you coming to enjoy your rest with us! For your arrival, we will lovingly prepare a basket full of goodies from the farm. Directly from us, from our sheep farm.
We will prepare it so that you have all the goodies and that you can also enjoy our cheeses, knots and threads. We throw in sausage or bacon, eggs on the scrambled eggs, and sheep's yogurt and bryndza must not be missing either.
OUR SHOP IN OSAŠKA
And if by chance it happens that the basket is too small for you, because you will immediately eat all the goodies out of sheer pleasure, don't worry. Here, in the shop in Osádka (approx. 3 km) you can buy other snacks, drink zinčica, or try fresh bryndza gnocchi. And also add some to your home supply so that you can eat our cheeses to grieve for us ;)
And it will be most ideal when you experience it with us in the summer months - that's the only time we are open.
For further shopping, you can go to the neighboring village of Pucov (approx. 3 km), where you can also find groceries and a local pub.
As we count, we count, but our fingers are simply not enough to list everything.
That's why we give you this advice to start with - really enjoy it with us. How? Well, exactly as your heart beats for it. Just listen to him. Then you will have a tailor-made Slow Travel.
A DAY ON THE SHEEP FARM
You can boldly spend the day on our farm and try the real farm life. Let's get to know each other, because it's already the third generation here that we graze 300 sheep on 100 hectares, in addition we take care of other animals and we also make cheese delicacies for you.
So just say that you would like to... And we'll come up with a robot for you. You can go to the meadow with the sheep, learn to milk them, bale hay, chop wood, paint. Do you want to see how milk is made into cheese, try to pull strings and then enjoy them while still fresh? If you want to switch off for a while and put your hands to work, just say so.
THE DAYS OF BAČOV
We cordially invite you to Malatina! We are always there. Sheep breeding and Wallachian culture belong to this region. You can watch the milking, shearing of sheep, or driving them out to pasture, if you didn't make it with us. And thanks to the sheep, you can't miss cooking halúški with bryndza, and you can admire the skill of the geldings when they crack their whips. But not only that one. You can also get to know our local, skilled craftsmen and boldly spread the skill and beauty of their products to the world. Let them admire her :)
ENVIRONMENT
- Bach's chair - we proudly invite you to our next handmade piece. To the lookout tower and the giant swing, from which you can enjoy the view of Veľký Choč. Otherwise, we have also put a small box here, from which you can take a mini surprise and leave something for us in return. We will be happy :)
- You should definitely not miss Pajta in Malatina. You will see with your own eyes where the shepherds and their sheep hid during bad weather. Sometimes even for several days - after all, snow could fall here even in May. This unique building also became a movie star when the scenes of Perinbaba and Sokoliar Tomáš were filmed here. Just look around and you will understand.
- Kalameny thermal spring - if our tub is not enough for you, jump into the lake with warm mineral water in Kalameny.
- Articulated Church of Leštiny - one of the rarest wooden churches in Slovakia was entered on the UNESCO List. The church from the 17th century hides precious treasures inside. Go see it, it's really beautiful. And otherwise, our bard P.O. Hviezdoslav was baptized here.
- And we will direct you to the Orava Castle. It proudly reigns over Orava. But what's the point of writing and talking about him here. The best thing to do is to walk up the hill and up the stairs and see for yourself.
SKIING
- Ski Park Kubínska hoľa
- Racibor Ski Park
- Sports center Malá Lučivná
What’s there for children?
You can come to us as a couple and enjoy the romance.
Or pack your children with you and enjoy an extraordinary trip. You can fit 2 adults and 2 small children (the extra bed is up to 150 cm in size). But remember that there is not enough space here and it will not inflate.
Anyway, if your little ones are crazy about running in wild meadows, don't mind getting really dirty, rolling around in the grass, they'll have a great time here. At Dača, they also have a pond for refreshment, where they can dip their feet, observe animals and insects around the water in the summer, or pack your skates in the winter and try a few wheels when the water freezes.
Add added value in the form of our beloved animals in Osádka. Go here and you can look at them, pet them, ride our mares Adi and Lienka, and even hares can happily chase.
We will let the little ones into our secrets, show what they can do and how to take care of the animals.
Are your offspring farm machinery enthusiasts? So we have a great attraction for them - a tractor. All you have to do is put it on the siding or in the cabin, hold on like a pincer and go up to meet the experience!
