And here you can have high expectations about your holiday in the mountains. At an altitude of 839 m above sea level cravings, pleasures and peace, disturbed only by the bleating of sheep, reign supreme. Because we designed our houses so that you don't have to think about anything. Evidence? One of the guests told us before departure that he could basically arrive without luggage. They are located in Brzegi, a small village in the Podhale region. The edges of our plot are marked by a birch forest, where you can hide in a hammock, and a country road, which is sometimes passed by a greeting farmer. We love Podhale and this is where we wanted to fulfill our dream of running a guest place - away from trampolines, quads and twisted fries. The idea was to be able to go on the trail without having to jostle along the main promenades. We did it: we found a plot of land right above the pasture, where only peace is allowed. With a panorama of the surrounding hills and a view of the Tatra Mountains above it. When you arrive, we will personally welcome you and, if you wish, we will provide you with a delicious breakfast every morning. We will also recommend you the best trails in our beloved Slovak Tatra Mountains. However, we leave you with a warning: surprisingly often, our guests abandon their hiking plans and do not leave the place...
Our cottages: Wyżny and Niżny are hidden in the shadow of the Tatra peaks in the small Podhale village of Brzegi. This is a place created for those who want to be close to the mountains, but away from the main resorts and promenades.
Two cottages in the type of a modern barn have:
- a bedroom with a double bed on the mezzanine (futon, quality bedding),
- a living room with a fireplace and a sofa bed for 2 people (futon)
- a kitchenette open to the living room,
- a bathroom with a shower,
- a terrace with deckchairs and tables.
There are no buildings on the neighboring plots and you can feel as if you were relaxing in a mountain pasture, because sheep and cows visit us here regularly. There are other houses in the village, but they are far from ours.
Ecology is important to us. The cottages were built of natural materials, without the use of mineral wool (they are insulated with grain and straw). We tried to make the houses partly passive. A large part of the equipment is made of wood. In the summer we don't mow the grass, so you'll feel like you're in a meadow.
In the winter, the snow often reaches waist-deep and the access can be demanding. A 4x4 drive is not necessary, but winter tires are. It's also a good idea to have chains with you.
Upon arrival, you will be greeted by a selection of local products (oscypek cheese, preserves, wine). In our kitchen you will find many types of teas and coffees. We have also taken care of the selection of brewing methods: there is an espresso machine, a coffee maker, a French press, and a pour-over.
If you feel like it, you can order delicious breakfast boxes with delivery to the cottage. They are prepared for us by Schronisko Bukowina. The cost of breakfast for 2 people is PLN 150.
And you can buy country eggs from the neighbors.
Let your stay in Wygóronych be a celebration of boredom. We have thought of everything that will make it as sweet as possible. The cottages are surrounded by a birch grove, which creates an idyllic atmosphere and allows you to hide from (unlikely) glances. This is where you can hang a hammock and spend the whole day with a book. Cozy terraces with a beautiful view tempt with comfortable deckchairs, pouffes, where you can sit with a cup of aromatic tea. Each terrace also has a private grill, and on the plot you will also find a place for a bonfire.
Various holiday embellishments await you inside: scented candles, blankets, beautiful ceramics, books and board games.
We know the Tatras like the back of our hand, so we will be happy to advise you which trail to choose. For years, we have been exploring especially the Slovak Tatras, which are still less crowded and partially undiscovered.
We recommend:
- Bachledowa Dolina with a treetop trail,
- a trip to Łomnica,
- Bukowina Thermal Baths,
- Rusinowa Polana,
- a trip to Morskie Oko, where the trail starts 15 minutes from here.
Brzegi is a tiny, high-lying village where nothing happens. You can walk through meadows and forests here, cycle for miles if you are not afraid of uphill riding, and walk to the clearing above our cottages to admire the panorama of the Tatras.
What’s there for children?
We invite older children to Wygóronych (steep stairs lead to the mezzanine).
What’s there for employees?
Our internet is too weak to participate in online meetings, but sufficient to use e-mail or applications. So don't expect intensive work, but you will easily stay in touch with your co-workers.
