Word of mouth whispers:
“The perfect cottage for a romantic weekend for two.”,
“My beloved and I went to Zielanka for a workation to escape the hustle and bustle of the city for a week.”,
“We prepared breakfast while watching cows eating grass on the hill. No TV would replace the view from the huge window.”,
“The cottage is perfectly quiet inside, while from the outside it is surrounded by meadows, forests and a stream, with practically no neighbors.”,
“The hostess took care of such details as good books (and not just those that serve as decoration), a speaker, basic products such as olive oil, spices for cooking, coffee, tea.”,
“A huge plus for those who do not drive will be the nearby train station (~1.5h by KD from Wrocław, 10 min walk from the station).”,
“Our dog Batman is of course delighted with the opportunity to run around the nearby hills and meadows.”.

“To sum up - a wonderful place, we had a wonderful rest. We will gladly come back many more times and we will recommend it to our friends!”

We will not argue with the opinions of our Guests, we will only add that Zielanka is a small, year-round cottage for a couple, built of breathable, natural materials, self-sufficient and quiet. Simple, mindful in form, immersed in greenery - for those who seek peace, presence and tranquility. There are buckwheat pillows, water from our own well, futons good for the spine and the warmth of the fireplace. And those windows. The most beautiful frame for the bucolic landscape.
