On the border of Warmia and Mazury there is a clearing in the forest, and in this clearing there is the Masurian Colony, where you can spend not only summer camps, but also winter camps and every free day. For over a dozen years, travelers who are tired of being on the road and working people who are not afraid of any work have been coming here. Families come by, couples stop by, small groups sing with guitar. The atmosphere here is a bit of a summer camp, although these are intergenerational camps with a schedule that varies according to the seasons. You can run through the forest with the mare Pompidou by your side, dive into the nearest lake Pluszne, grab a kayak paddle or the handle of a mushroom basket. In the evening, listen to stories about places that no longer exist, eating Masurian fish by the fire and toasting with currant wine. Or walk barefoot on fresh snow, wondering whether it's winter swimming or not. To put it briefly and concretely: you can do a lot here.
We rent Kolonia Mazurska exclusively for up to a dozen people or as single rooms, of which there are 5 in total. Feel free to use the shared living room, two terraces and hammocks without hesitation. From May to September we invite you for breakfast, in the remaining months we lend you the kitchen or we persuade you to prepare something for the morning.
See you?

The story about the Masurian Colony in Mierki begins with a forest and a picturesque clearing that asked for a beautiful place with a new story. It was for the sake of the place that I moved to the forests, and the place returned the favor a hundredfold, pampering me but also rigorously teaching me the things required by a habitat with a small stable in the forest on the very border of Masuria and Warmia, on Lake Pluszne.

1 house

Go to photo editor
Translated by Google Translate.
I rent the house exclusively for one group or I invite guests to individual rooms.
Each of the rooms has:
- a wide, comfortable bed,
- extra single bed or two,
- a bathroom,
- a window overlooking the forest,
- free WiFi.
Guests also fall asleep on a hammock, on a blanket on the grass, on sofas, where they just fall asleep, and they do quite often, because in the forest there is a rather detoxifying mood.
You can come to us alone and rent a room or a larger team and take the house with all the benefits for exclusive use.
If you rent a room, you can also use the common areas: a living room with a fireplace and tables, two arcaded terraces with tables and sofas, hammocks in a birch grove.
There are spots right on the lake on a large pier in the village next door or on the so-called wild beaches.
Horseback riding for older teens and adults only. For children, help with the stable or combing the Pompidou.
Long term rental possible.
Work holidays possible.

In the summer season (June - until the end of August) we serve breakfast on request - both to guests renting single rooms and guests renting the whole house exclusively. In other months, we do not serve breakfast, but we provide you with a kitchen. However, if you rent the whole place for one group out of season and you dream of prepared breakfasts, ask about this possibility, we also cook dinner for groups.
Sometimes we prepare ceremonial breakfasts and dinners, e.g. during weddings or christenings. The prices of meals in a festive setting are agreed individually.

What’s there for children?
Go to photo editor
Translated by Google Translate.
We welcome guests from 4 years of age.
You can spend time with your children around the campfire, telling blood-curdling stories about a house in the forest where there are no TVs. You can sit on the pulpit in the forest and wait for Mr. Moose to come. You can splash with your children in Lake Pluszne, fish, pick mushrooms, watch a family of cranes, go to Mr. Beaver's workshop, hang out with young bulls, weave wreaths in the meadow, wave goodbye to wild geese.
Horse riding for older teens and adults
There used to be a playground in Cologne, but it lost out to pine cones, sticks and a hut in the forest.

We also invite you to work holidays. You can rent the entire place exclusively for a larger team or appear as soloists in individual rooms.
The Internet has been tested in practice, among others: by several IT specialists who locked themselves in a remote area for the duration of the project. Verdict: the connection runs smoothly. So you can easily make a video call with us on our webcam, receive e-mails or send larger attachments. The best working conditions are in room no. 1 with a balcony (a table and three chairs and an armchair (the table can also be placed on the balcony) and in room no. 3 with a hall and balcony (a table and chairs in the room. In family room no. 4 (a table and 4 chairs, because it is a room for 4 people). However, in a small room there is a desk for one person. We can always equip it if we need something more.
In the living room, in the common area, there is a large table and a dozen or so chairs that will fit a larger team for work (the Slowhop team and other teams have already worked with us ;)

1 way: Google Maps directs from Olsztynek through Mierki, do not enter the address, only the name "Kolonia Mazurska Mierki" 2nd way: We also recommend the second route, from the side of Gryźlin, do not enter Kolonia Mazurska in Google, but follow the directions: left behind the railway tracks in Gryźliny, then to Zielonowo, behind the airport, turn right into the forest, take the forest road to Leśniczy in Lotnicza ( 1km) and further behind the Leśniczówka a kilometer and that's us.

Reviews
Miejsce godne polecenia! Niezwykle klimatyczne mieszkanie w malowniczej okolicy, które ze względu na swą lokalizację stanowi idealną odskocznię od spraw bieżących. Swoboda, która temu towarzyszyła zdecydowanie pozwoliła nam się zrelaksować oraz dobrze odpocząć. Właściciele również pokazali się z bardzo dobrej strony: służyli pomocą oraz bez żadnego problemu wyjaśnili wszystkie trapiące nas kwestie. Bez wahania jesteśmy gotowi tu wrócić! Jeszcze raz, polecam!
Bardzo fajnie położony dom, cisza, spokój z dala od wszystkiego. Idealnie nam się sprawdził na wyjazd większą grupą - oddzielne pokoje i niezależność a do tego dużo przestrzeni wspólnej, dostępna kuchnia, tarasy, miejsce na ognisko, pyszne śniadania i bardzo pomocni gospodarze.
Bardzo dziękujemy i serdecznie zapraszamy w przyszłości. D
Zasmakowaliśmy zastanego na miejscu trybu życia i nie chcieliśmy wracać :) Widok na las i pasące się konie po przebudzeniu, śniadania na tarasie, krzątający się pies gospodarzy, muzyka z gramofonu, biblioteczka z szerokim wyborem pozycji i trzaskający ogień w kominku - bajka. Mierki to urocza miejscowość położona nad zaskakująco czystym jeziorem Pluszne. W okolicznych Pluskach, można popływać na SUP-ach i sprzęcie wodnym. W okolicy jest dużo leśnych ścieżek rowerowych, które zachęcają do rajdów. Żałujemy, że byliśmy na tak krótko, ale pewnie kiedyś naprawimy ten błąd :) Miło byłoby jeszcze wpaść w sezonie i spróbować śniadań przygotowywanych przez gospodarzy z lokalnych produktów, których nie możemy odżałować ;)
Bardzo dziękujemy za piękną opinię i serdecznie zapraszamy w przyszłości.
