Where can you find the best pierogi? At the mountain hut on Turbacz, of course. Unique pancakes with blueberry sauce? Head to the shepherd's hut on Maciejowa, where picturesque views of the Tatra Mountains and the clatter of sheep herds await you along the way. And the most delicious local Gorce products? You'll find them at our neighbors', just steps from our agritourism farm. Our guesthouse is located in the village of Niedźwiedź, not off the beaten track, yet close to all the wonderful Gorce trails. We offer large apartments with kitchenettes for couples or families with children. We also offer plenty of activities in the spacious common area, including billiards, ping-pong, poker, and a sauna. After mountain walks or a day on the ski slopes, you'll find relaxation in the jacuzzi and sauna, as well as plenty of evening entertainment indoors or in the highlander gazebo by the fire.
We love mountains, active recreation, and our views of the slopes and sheep. We also enjoy caring for our guests, and we've prepared personalized guides for various occasions. Whether you're here to conquer the peaks or stroll around the area with your little ones, we'll advise you on how to best enjoy your time.
We offer you five intimate, two-person studio apartments (each 35 m²), where you can forget about the same old hotel atmosphere. Each interior offers a unique story, unique details, and hand-crafted furniture. Each offers a large, comfortable queen-size bed with fresh linens, a fully equipped kitchenette (induction hob, refrigerator, dishes), and a modern bathroom with fluffy towels.
You can choose from five unique atmospheres:
- Honey Peace (no. 5) – an oasis of warm wood and tranquility.
- Idyllic Herb Garden (no. 7) – deep greenery and artistic, natural accents.
- Classic Elegance (no. 8) – mountain prestige, burgundy details, and hand-carved furniture.
- Blue (no. 9) – a bright, light-filled space that almost merges with the mountain sky. -Expressive Peak (No. 10) – sophisticated minimalism with artistic flair and a hand-painted wardrobe.
Studio windows offer soothing views of the mountains, grazing sheep, and paragliders. We are 100% pet-friendly, so your four-legged friends are our guests!

- In winter: the modern ski resorts of Kasina Ski and Ostoja Koninki await you. -On rainy days: in addition to our games room, it's worth visiting the Orkanówka Museum or relaxing in the Gorce Thermal Baths, just 1.5 km away (we offer special discounts for our guests!).
To make your stay easier, we've prepared ready-made itineraries (variants: Active, Peaceful, Romantic), so you don't have to waste time planning.
What attractions can children and their parents expect? Just a few words.
While our apartments are most often visited by couples seeking peace and quiet, families with children will enjoy a fantastic time surrounded by nature. We've prepared a dedicated family itinerary in PDF format (including a packing checklist) to help you organize your vacation.
Little ones can expect interaction with nature and farm animals (including watching sheep graze from the windows) and play in the garden, where they'll find sports equipment and board games. Older children will undoubtedly lose themselves in our entertainment area for hours at the ping-pong table or foosball table, and in the evenings, they'll love roasting sausages over a real campfire.
With little legs in mind, we've identified and described easy, short walking trails that start right from the doorstep of our building. Maps of these safe paths are easily found in our guide.
If you're planning a work stay with us, combining your responsibilities with a mountain retreat will be pure pleasure. We provide stable, fast, and free Wi-Fi in every apartment. The spacious studios (35 m²) offer great comfort and freedom for work. You can lounge with your laptop at the table in your room, enjoy a good cup of coffee from the kitchenette, and during breaks from work, head out to the terrace and clear your head while gazing at the panoramic views of the Gorce Mountains.
When you need a change of scenery, you can also work in our large Banquet Hall. After closing your laptop screen, you can move to the wellness area in just a few seconds for a private sauna or jacuzzi session—the best way we know to unwind after a long day of work.
