oh boredom! We want you here, we celebrate you and we strive for a state when we enjoy blissfully doing nothing, staring at the clouds and accepting what the day gradually reveals to us. Carefree on a wooden deckchair with a book from our library? It's here. Curling up in a pretzel on a comfortable couch in front of a huge window through which nature looks inside? here too. Or maybe coffee on the terrace, which is overgrown with self-sown plants? We invite you! Also, be sure to go to the hammocks zone - their soporific properties have been empirically confirmed.
The house is located on a meadow full of herbs, right next to the forest. We rarely mow the grass, we like this natural state of slight chaos. You can make bouquets from wildflowers, and infusions from herbs. You can also lie down in the grass like on a mattress and forget about everything for a while.
We have a gate to the forest, through which you only need to go and take a few steps to fall into the arms of the trees. You must have heard about the beneficial effects of forest bathing, so let us just quote Katarzyna Simonienko and a fragment of her "Forest therapy": "Forest therapy can effectively increase immunity. It has been shown that a weekend spent in the forest can improve immune parameters for the next month." We have a house for ants near the forest, you can observe them and meditate, because this observation is very relaxing. We would like to add that in the season the forest is filled with mushrooms. The Nowy Tomyśl region is a paradise for mushroom pickers and we have an abundance of them in the season.
During your walks around Pąchy and Miedzichów, you will come across half-timbered buildings from the 19th and 20th centuries, which are a reminder of the Olenders who lived in these areas.
Ascalon Beach is located on Lake Tartackie. There is a pier, a playground for children and a canoe and pedalo rental. There is also a swing from which you can admire the sunsets. The second of the surrounding lakes - Głębokie Lake does not have a guarded beach or many sunbathers. You will get there by driving 6 km, along the road leading through the forest.
In Szklarka Trzcielska there is a Forest Farm run by Mrs. Agnieszka. This is a place that brings fun to children (there is a farm with animals) and pleasure to the palate (you can taste the hostess's specialties on site). On the farm you can buy (and order) cheese, bread, butter, eggs and goat's milk.
The Miedzichowski Landscape Park covered by Natura 2000 protects the gutters of the Pszczew lakes and fragments of the valleys of the Obra and Kamionka rivers. You can meet there: great crested grebes, cormorants and gray herons. Butterfly lovers may see some of the numerous species found here during the day, i.e. morpheus sea squirrel, spaghetti pyrethrum, mourner's fairy or blue tit amandus. Under the pines, look for a colorful beetle - the eight-spot great tit.
There are forest bicycle trails around the plot. If you love two wheels, you will be pleased with 160 km of paths and bicycle routes. We recommend: the Bolewicka Pine Trail from Nowy Tomyśl to Lewice (34 km), the North-South Trail from Łowyń to Miedzichów (25 km) and Piach to the axis, i.e. Miedzichowski Paris-Dakar from Borowy Młyn to Chmielinko (22 km). Oxygenation with the aroma of the forest guaranteed
A few more recommendations from us:
– canoeing trips on the Obra river start in Trzciel,
– in Nowy Tomyśl there is the Museum of Wickerwork and Hops (the museum organizes basketry workshops and demonstrations of weaving and wicker processing),
– the aforementioned Wicker Trail is over 100 km long, it is a bicycle and educational and tourist route with interesting points available on the route (they are diverse and available on certain days, you can, for example, go to a show of sorting, tying and barking wicker),
– marking of the former border of Poland,
– eco fair in Miedzichów.
Our house is open all year round, in winter you can hide here, enjoy the warmth of the fireplace, crisp air and look for tracks of animals in the snow during walks.
