A few kilometers from here stands a castle in Niedzica—and not just any castle, for according to local legend, this is where a story that began… in Peru ends. There's talk of an Inca princess, distant journeys, a mysterious will, and a treasure that was supposed to end up in the Pieniny Mountains with European aristocrats. Truth or beautiful nonsense? It's hard to say. One fact is: this area has always been a gateway between worlds, cultures, and histories. Those that prefer to whisper rather than shout.
And today? Today, you can simply sit here, light a fire, look up at the sky, and think that even if the treasure doesn't exist, it's right there in front of you.

You can admire it in Podhale, in Krempachy, where Przystań pod Gwiazdami (Haven under the Stars) stands amidst fields, mountains, and along a nearby river. A house for four people, created with an attentiveness to place, light, and silence. This place was created by combining two worlds: an interior designer and a carpenter, united by their love of travel and well-designed spaces. Inside, you'll find serene, refined wooden interiors. Modern, unconventional, and regional. Outside, you'll find an open-air hot tub and a fireplace. And best of all, you can watch your favorite movie on the projector while sitting in the hot tub. Under the stars!

If you're looking for a unique home that's perfect for both a romantic getaway and a getaway with friends, this sounds like the perfect plan.

Awaiting you is an intimate house for four people (42 m²), designed for a comfortable, leisurely stay. Inside, you'll find a living area with a kitchenette and dining area, a bathroom, and two sleeping areas: a ground-floor bedroom with a double bed and a large bed on the mezzanine. The kitchen is fully equipped, and the living area is perfect for relaxing and enjoying long evenings. Outside, you'll find an outdoor hot tub and a fire pit. The rest is up to you.

There's a fully equipped kitchenette on site, so you can cook your own way—breakfast and dinner without rushing, just how you like it. If you don't feel like cooking, you'll easily find restaurants and trusted places for lunch or a sweet treat nearby. This is a good base for both those who prefer to cook for themselves and those who enjoy eating out.

The area offers plenty of opportunities if you're looking to get out and about. Lake Czorsztyn, one of the most picturesque spots in the region, is just a short drive away. You can spend the day by the water, swimming, renting a kayak or pedal boat, taking a cruise on the lake, or simply strolling along the shore and admiring the views. Two castles, in Niedzica and Czorsztyn, stand above the water's surface, giving this landscape a unique character. A cycling trail also runs around the lake, perfect for a longer hike or a leisurely ride with stops.

If you prefer the mountains, the Pieniny and Gorce mountains are within easy driving distance, with numerous hiking trails, viewpoints, and walking routes. They make a good base for day trips and shorter excursions.

And if your plan for the day is simple, you can simply stay put and choose blissful laziness.

Children are welcome here. The house and garden provide a peaceful, shared space—no entertainment or pre-made attractions, but plenty of space for everyone to spend time together. A garden, a fire pit, and an outdoor hot tub are on site. This is a great option for families who value simplicity and time spent offline.

You'll also find several tried-and-true ideas for outings with children in the area. The Przełom Białki Nature Reserve offers easy walking trails and contact with nature, and the Brama w Gorce (Gateway to the Gorce) is a nature and educational center designed with children in mind. An additional attraction is Lake Czorsztyńskie, where you can spend a day by the water or take a boat cruise.

This is a place for families seeking peace, nature, and time together—without playgrounds or noise.

This place is also perfect for combining travel with remote work. The house has stable Wi-Fi and a space where you can sit quietly with your laptop. Phone reception is moderate, but sufficient for everyday work.

This is a good option for a few days of work in a quiet environment, with the ability to easily switch offline after hours.
