How many hotels do you know where the manager sits in the flower beds in the courtyard all day long, and the boss runs with the guests in the wilderness and organizes bicycle trips for them? Now there's at least one. Folwark Łękuk, founded by Iza and Krzysztof on the ruins of a former Prussian estate, is a voice of opposition to subsequent glass houses being built on the lakes. And proof that a large scale does not have to mean a lack of warmth and commitment. Our ecological hotel complex is full of heart and ideas. The chef invites guests to workshops on Old Prussian cuisine with Masurian housewives, and Iza runs year-round classes in the garden for anyone interested. At this point we must add that this is most likely the largest permaculture garden for a hotel in Poland. Krzysztof prepares sports expeditions, and the rest of the crew prepares adventure quests. We also invite you to the SPA, where we use our own rapeseed oil from our crops for one of many treatments, ayruveda. Did we mention that we have 100 ha of our own fields? And although our farm is a large facility, you must believe that we are visited by people who love peace, Masurian nature, activity and excellent cuisine. We will host you in the rustic rooms of a revitalized 18th-century granary, which is the oldest on the map of Łękuk Farm. Families love it, although for years we have been hosting satisfied retirees more and more often. So if you feel it's time for a delightful, early retirement, this is the address.
Our agritourism is located on the premises of our hotel (also Slow and one of the most ecological hotels in Poland), on the premises of Folwark Łękuk.
However, the Old Granary is not an integral part of the hotel. It has its own personality and its own guests. The hotel is separated by permaculture flower gardens and an over 100-meter courtyard.
We offer a total of 7 rooms with bathrooms for relaxation:
– 1 x apartment with kitchen for 4–5 people,
– 2 x room for 2 people ,
– 4 x room for 3–4 people.
The granary can be rented exclusively - for a maximum of 25 people. + possible extra beds.
The names of our rooms are inspired by activities that are available on the premises seasonally.
1) The Golfista Apartment is an ideal place for families or groups of 4-5 people. It has a living room with dining room and kitchen, as well as a bedroom and a balcony.
2) Double rooms (named Volleyball and Cyclist) are warm and comfortable double rooms. The volleyball machine is additionally equipped with oversized beds (for volleyball players ;)).
3) The Swimmer and the Wanderer are rooms for 3–4 people. (they have 4 single beds that can be freely arranged or hide unnecessary ones)
4) Skier and Kayaker are rooms for 3-4 people. (they have 1 double bed and two single beds).
In its "guts", in addition to the rooms, the Granary has: a fully equipped kitchen with a fireplace room at your disposal (if you want to light the fireplace, ask the staff), a hall with sofas and a bookcase for guests, and a bicycle rental (trekking and electric).
Weddings and corporate events are sometimes held in the building of the hotel located 100 m from here. The granary is located far enough away from it that the sounds from the main building do not reach it, and guests of the ceremony are always accommodated in the hotel. We don't like noise either. However, we feel obliged to let you know that we may have similar fun events on weekends.
We invite you to our restaurant in the hotel building located 100 m away for delicious breakfasts included in the price of your stay. When we have more than 12 guests, we serve them in the form of a buffet, and below this number we will serve you a selected table set. We take into account the dietary preferences of our guests: vegetarian, vegan, lactose-free or gluten-free.
From the menu of the Ogień i Woda restaurant, specializing in Masurian cuisine, you can choose something tasty for other meals. However, if you prefer to cook on your own - in the Granary building there is a well-equipped kitchen at your disposal.
We produce our own preserves, rapeseed oil and cold meats (we have our own smokehouse on site). If you want, we will offer you a basket with their selection composed especially for you. We can also prepare a picnic basket for you for your trip.

What’s there for children?
Families with children are very happy to visit us because it is impossible to get bored here. Children can enjoy the adventures we organize: animations, workshops, trips, quests.
What’s there for employees?
On-site work is possible. In some rooms the internet works faster, in others slower, but it certainly does not disappoint in the common areas where you can sit with your laptop. It's like in Masuria - when the weather is bad, the network can play tricks, but then we use hot spots from our phones and cope in this way.
