The warmest and sunniest city in Poland is half an hour away. We like to think that a few rays from Tarnów also warm our piece of forest. On days when they don't reach here, however, you can warm up in other ways: in a tub under the stars or in a sauna overlooking the pine trees. In the Middle Ages, two important trade routes ran through the nearby Tarnów, which is why the city has a fascinating multicultural history. Dziupla House stands at the intersection of other important routes: walks of deer, hares, and sometimes even moose. Apart from them, no one will get your nose caught in your forest rest.
You come to this house for an episode from reality. We thought it so that you would feel pampered with us. We took care of the mood, details, lights and smells. And now we would see it this way: you tell your favorite person or a few that in Podkarpacie, but almost in Lesser Poland, there is a forest sanctuary in which it is the most pleasant to be together. That in summer it's great for a bike, in autumn for mushrooms, and in winter for warming up by the fireplace. That you can watch Netflix from under the blanket, but better still, a forest, and generally the best voracious sundew in the nearby Torfy reserve. Come to us to hide in the hollow, just remember to get out of it sometimes. Close contact with nature will help you cleanse your heads and tickle your senses.
Dziupla House is situated in the middle of a pine forest, on a large, unfenced plot. It is a comfortable house for a couple or a small group of friends. Here we invite you for an episode from reality: silence, the smell of resin, forest walks, relaxation in a sauna or a tub and shared moments on the terrace. And you can with pets, they also deserve.
The cottage has:
- 46 m²,
- 2 bedrooms with double beds,
- a sofa bed in the living room,
- bathroom with shower,
- workstation and fast fiber-optic internet,
- 40 m² terrace,
- outdoor sauna and hot tub (included).
You can host up to 6 people here, but it will be most convenient for four of you. We only have 2 bedrooms, so 2 people would have to sleep in the living room on the pull-out couch. In case of what - it is possible. We are not saying no intimate hen or bachelor party.
We have arranged the house as we would like to feel here. We took care of the careful finish, details and small enchantments: scented candles, cosmetics in the bathroom, blankets, underfloor heating in the bathroom or a goat that makes autumn and winter evenings more pleasant. In summer, mosquito nets will protect you from insects.
You can get to Dziupla using a code that we will send you via SMS on the day of your arrival. When you arrive, the cottage will be waiting: bright and cozy (electrically operated). We live only 1 km away, so we can help if necessary, but it is possible that we will not have contact. Our friend Gosia can also help you with everything.
The cottage has a well-equipped kitchen - you won't need anything to cook whatever you like. There is a dishwasher, a two-burner hob, and morning coffee is brewed here in a coffee maker. Our guests say that everything tastes best when eaten on the terrace. There will be a large table with an umbrella waiting for you, a perfect breakfast with a view of the forest and evening festivities.
In addition, we have here solid equipment for grilling. Next to the terrace there is a 4-burner gas grill, and below the house - a fireplace. There is also a table and benches next to it.
For those who are not cooking and curious about new tastes, we can recommend good restaurants in the area (see below). To the Black Sesame in Dębica, gourmets from our region go for Asian specialties (e.g. sushi like in the pictures). You can also order something from them with delivery to the forest, it will cost PLN 12. Other options include pizza or an exquisite dinner at Dwór na Wolicy.
We also send you for hand-made family ice cream in Czarna, to a seasonal ice cream shop. It is open from April / May to September. It has no name, because it is the only ice cream shop in the village;)
However, sleeping in Dziupla obliges you to be bored a bit. We have mostly trees around and not much else. This is not a place where you come for crazy entertainment, but to soothe your senses, calm down, and also please yourself a bit. We made sure that you would benefit from your stay here as much as possible and come back to your everyday life pampered.
In the cottage and its surroundings, you can:
- doing morning yoga on the terrace,
- go for long walks in the forest,
- take hot baths in a tub with a hydromassage function (they are most delightful on cold days, in the evening, when you can look at the stars),
- eat unhurried meals on the terrace,
- read books on a deckchair or in a hammock,
- play various games (they are waiting at the cottage),
- watch movies and series on Netflix,
- basking in the sauna.
Now a few words about our sauna, because we tried to make it prima sort:
- oils will be waiting for you, so you can arrange aromatherapy; we personally recommend rose, tea and lavender,
- it has a sound system, so the screening will be made more pleasant by your favorite music from your smartphone (you can connect) or relaxing sounds,
- you will see a soothing forest through the glass,
- a barrel with cold water will be waiting for you in front of the sauna for quick cooling of the body - we recommend this hardening, health-promoting treatment.
We also have a massage offer for you. Our friendly masseuse can come to the cottage and give you:
- relaxing massage,
- medical massage,
- Chinese cupping massage.
Ladies can also be two and massage two people at once if you dream of such a romantic evening. On warm days, this pleasure takes place outside, surrounded by the forest, and on cooler days, in the living room (also with a view of the forest).
And more about what you can do in the area:
- we have beautiful bicycle routes here, the bicycle route runs through the Czarna River close to us, so be sure to take two wheels if you like to ride,
- Czarna has a lot to offer enthusiasts of exercise: there are free tennis courts (only the equipment you need to have your own), beach net fields, an indoor swimming pool, and in winter you can rent cross-country skiing,
- you can go to the ice rink to Dębica,
- in the Torfy nature reserve, where peat was mined before the war, you can see a plant that you probably know well from biology lessons: insectivorous sundew, which is present in peat bogs; a picturesque nature path leads through the reserve,
- lovers of history and mysterious places are sent to the Soviet military base in Żdżary: it was the only such base on the right side of the Vistula, and this place was chosen because of its location halfway between Berlin and Moscow; however, before the construction of the base was completed, communism collapsed - today you can see its remains,
- we also recommend a trip to Tarnów, because it is a city with a very interesting, multicultural history - in the Middle Ages it was located at the intersection of important trade routes, so Jews, Czechs, Germans, and even Scots and Roma settled here; you have to see the colorful houses in the market square, climb St. Martin, see the bimah of the demolished synagogue in Tarnów, the mikveh, and the Jewish bathhouse.
What’s there for children?
We invite you with kids, but those older than 6 years. We have nothing here for such complete babies. For those who are a bit older, sleeping in the forest may turn out to be a great adventure. Maybe they will see a deer or a moose for the first time? In the fall, you can also organize a great mushroom picking, and in the summer you can crack bonfires in the evenings, like at a fancy scout camp.
What’s there for employees?
Send our link to your other half or close friends and ask if they are signing up for workation, and then just pack your bags. In the house we have one desk with a chair and a bedside lamp. On the sofa with a view of the forest, you can comfortably answer ASAP e-mails and finish long-started projects. Silence is guaranteed in the price of the stay, because our house is located in the middle of the forest.
