When a car passes by once an hour, we say "what traffic today!". We also adhere to rather peculiar rules such as "Sunday without apple pie is no Sunday." And instead of a lady with an ermine, we have a lady with a proziak. Do you feel such vibes? Then we invite you further, we will not be standing in the doorway like this. Although here, even this threshold is quite pleasant, with a view of the Sanocko-Turczańskie Mountains, the Słonne Mountains and the Chwaniów range. Hats off and boots off your feet, if that tells you anything. And yet it is here that the Bieszczady Transofgarsk Road passes, the invisible Turnicki National Park stretches and the Hope fir grows, older than the independence of the United States.
Akacjowe Zacisze are two year-round cottages that are nestled near the forest, right next to our agritourism with rooms. We will feed the hungry with breakfast, dinner and even a Carpathian dinner with traditional delicacies from the Bieszczady cuisine. Cooking in private kitchenettes is also possible. And so we want to say something else at the end, something that will make you come to us, even if you have never heard of our mountains. Because here is really what to do, where to get lost and chase with the wind. Alone, no crowds.
However, nothing else comes to mind, but simply: come on, it's beautiful!
In Akacjowe Zacisze you will find two year-round cottages. Located close to the forest, they are the best option for 4 people or a family with children. Each has two bedrooms, a living room with a fireplace, a kitchenette and a bathroom.
We try to be a part of nature and repay it for the opportunity to live in such a beautiful place. We draw electricity from solar energy, we have installed a heat pump for heating, and we have taken care of a household sewage treatment plant. We kindly ask you to segregate your waste.
Akacjowe Zacisze is not only houses, but also an agritourism farm. In the main house there is a dining room where we serve breakfast and dinner, a living room with a children's play area and a library, as well as a yoga and meditation room.

Let me say it again: we are in the middle of nowhere, so nice restaurants are far away. And that is why we encourage guests to enjoy our breakfasts and home-cooked dinners (meals are payable additionally). You don't have to worry about setting the whole day for meals - we feed at the hours that suit you. Our love is mainly Polish and Lemko cuisine.
On warm, longer weekends we organize Carpathian Dinners. You will try regional specialties such as fuczki, hreczanyki or tertianyky. We also prepare goulash in a cast-iron cauldron and meat and vegetable stews. On site we also have an Acacia Grill Hut with an oven for baking pizza, bread and proziaks. And at the turn of June and July, the housewives from Stańkowa organize Pierogi Festival. Needless to say, it's worth going there!
It is difficult to find restaurants, but if someone is in need, you can choose to eat in Sanok (30 km), a glider center (22 km) or at the ski station in Wańkowa (10 km).
Both houses, of course, have kitchenettes at your disposal, as well as brick grills for feasting together (we ask you to provide yourself with charcoal for grilling).
Do you want to have the forest just for yourself? Are you tired of holiday crowds? Well, we invite you to our Sanok-Turczań retreat in the foothills of the Bieszczady Mountains. Wander around aimlessly or set your sights on local delights.
#delight 1 - glider on Bezmiechowa Góra
Here we have amazing views, the opportunity to admire gliders (but there are no offers for tourist flights yet) and a path with forest forefathers carved in the trees. There is also a restaurant at the top if you feel like eating apple pie with ice cream outdoors.
#delight 2 - Słone Serpenty
In the neighborhood there are the longest road serpentines in Poland. The route is used every year for car rallies, but you can also take a ride on it. At Załuże you will find an observation deck with a parking lot.
#delight 3 - Orthodox church in Ulucz
The church stands on a steep hill in Dębnik and was built in 1659. It is therefore the third oldest Orthodox church in Poland. However, few people go there, perhaps because they are discouraged by the approach. Don't be discouraged, because the place is very picturesque and reminds you of the former inhabitants of this area.
#delight 4 - Sanok, Beksiński and the open-air museum
Sanok is famous for its charming market square, the wonderful Museum of Folk Architecture, a collection of icons and the world's largest collection of works by Zdzisław Beksiński. Maybe you don't know, but Beksiński was born in Sanok, and his family founded a blacksmith and bicycle workshop here in the 19th century, which gave birth to the Autosan company.
#delight 5 - view of the San River from the Sobień Castle
Only ruins remain of Sobień Castle, but the view of the San River was as delightful as it was, and still delights. Under the Castle there is a parking lot, a small bar and a Molotov Line bunker hidden in the bushes.
#delight 6 - invisible Turnicki National Park
Turnicki National Park is still a park without official boundaries. Naturalists and activists have been fighting for its establishment for years because it would protect one of the last wild fragments of the Carpathian Forest. Before your planned arrival, check if you can catch an event - they already have such attractions as an evening with the magic of the Carpathians, bicycle rallies, walks along the church trail and celebrating Kupala Night. More information can be found on the project website https://zdrowienypark.pl/
#delight 7 - non-existent villages
Search under the name: areas of the former villages of Jamna Górna/Dolna.
#delight 8- observation tower on Holica
It is from here that you can admire the breathtaking ranges of the Sanocko-Turczańskie Mountains and the Bieszczady Mountains.
#delight 9 - sauna and hot tub
And here we are, in the garden :)
What’s there for children?
Akacjowe Zacisze is over 3 hectares of garden with picturesque corners, hundreds of trees and shrubs and a stream, which is a real attraction for kids. For the youngest guests, we have a small slide, sandpits and football goals. Children can spend a lot of time outdoors, taking advantage of the huge space of our garden.
And when there is rain outside the window, we invite you to our house, where books and board games are waiting.
Together with willing children, we will prepare regional proziaki baked on a baking sheet.
What’s there for employees?
For working people, we offer a common space in the living room in the main house, but in our wilderness it is different with an internet connection, so it's best to secure your own.
