The hygge season lasts all year round in Witoszyn. In atmospheric and comfortable interiors, surrounded by greenery, you can practice the art of achieving inner balance. Our standard habitat allows you to hide and hide, communing with nature that forces its way through the windows and surrounds us. And sometimes this is enough to fully regenerate, feel blissful and experience well-being.
The essence of Witoszyn is space, lots of space. On an area of over one hectare, you will enjoy a natural meadow, mowed only once a year (did you know that such a meadow produces as much oxygen as a forest?), which deer like to run into. We also have a piece of our own forest, where you can find various species of mushrooms, including black mushrooms (they are edible and very tasty when they are young, closed and entirely white). You can enjoy the space of the garden, where you can take out sun loungers, and terraces with an endless view of nature. During the glaciations, the wind brought here loess covers of up to 30 meters. The loess is prone to washing away, so it has been dissected by countless ravines. One of them also belongs to our habitat and starts right next to the house. Long walks, during which you absorb the beauty of the area or take a forest bath, are everyday life here.
The surroundings of Witoszyn are best explored on your own. I will show you paths where you may not meet anyone if you look for it. They all lead among forested hills and numerous ravines. In the vicinity of Bochotnica their density is the highest in Europe and exceeds 10 km per square kilometer. On the other side of the road there is a forest that you can walk around in gorges. Going down to Witoszyn, you will come across Potok Witoszyński (called the Green Ribbon), a tributary of the Bystra River, which flows along the village. There are numerous springs on it, you can also look at the beavers or at least the buildings they erect. In the crystal clear and icy (about 9.5 degrees) waters, you can meet rainbow trout.
There are several vineyards in the area, which you can reach on foot. I will show you the way to them.
For rainy afternoons, lazy evenings and for any other occasion, we have a common space with comfortable sofas, where you can enjoy the glow and warmth of the fireplace. You can reach for books from the shelves of our library or indulge in inspiring conversations at the table, which is also great for board games.
Our space is conducive to tranquility, meditation and yoga practices. The house has a spacious and quiet exercise room that you can use. Our guests also like to train on the terrace and on the lush green grass.
Witoszyn is located 8 km from Kazimierz Dolny. In the summer, there (and in Janowiec, located on the other side of the Vistula River) the Dwa Brzegi Film and Art Festival is held, which is worth visiting. The city with its Renaissance market square is full of charming cafes, art galleries and streets where you can get lost. In Kazimierz, be sure to visit the art studio and Sarzyński bakery, where Kazimierz roosters are baked. You can also go on a trip to Janowiec and Nałęczów, and go a bit further - to Kozłówka or Lublin.
In winter you can be tempted not only by beautiful views, but also by three nearby ski lifts: in Rąblów, in Kazimierz Dolny and in Parchatka.
