Dreams and Stones stands at the very source of the famous Rospuda River, a 6-minute walk (300 meters) to Wysokie Lake through a beautiful old mixed forest, which is a Place of Power for many guests. In the immediate vicinity there are other lakes: Rospuda, Czarne, Kamienne, Bitkowo. The Upper Rospuda Valley is a special place, different from most of the beautiful Suwałki Region. Even more beautiful, more undulating, with lots of forests and lakes and very pure bright energy.
A place for meditation, delicious vegetarian food, kitchen experiments, conversations about light and quite heavy topics. Close to nature, animals and closer to what lies within. In my opinion, it is a development centre and an artistic residence in one. There is glamping and rooms in the house with satin linens, fluffy bathrobes and restful sleep. A forest, a lake, a sauna, boats, a dance and yoga room, two dogs and two cats await you here. A place created with a heart intended for external and internal use.
In autumn, winter and early spring there are three rooms in the house. One double with a private bathroom with shower, two doubles (smaller and larger) sharing a bathroom with shower and toilet.
Also two apartments each with a living room and bathroom on the ground floor and a bedroom on a spacious mezzanine in a new wooden cottage.
From May to September, there is also a wooden cottage in the forest (for 2-3 people) and two tent houses (for 2-3 people each) with their own bathrooms with shower and toilets.
Everyone sleeps in white satin cotton bedding, dries themselves with white towels and can cover themselves with equally white bathrobes.
Vegetarian meals. The price includes hearty breakfasts, three-course dinners on request.
I do not use meat, wheat in any form, white sugar or monosodium glutamate in the kitchen. And the only dairy products are butter and yellow cheeses from Filipowo.
Dreams and Stones are famous for their food. This is mainly why guests come back here. My strongest points are soups and desserts. For example, Ukrainian borscht, sorrel soup, Indian dal, Vietnamese soup with many vegetables, roasted pepper or pumpkin soup, or Tuscan bean soup or French onion soup.
Desserts include, for example, hot bananas in banana ice cream with mint and roasted almonds, fruit with sage under crumble, or plum cake, apple pie, or maybe pumpkin or carrot cake.
The main course is veggie burgers, gluten-free pasta in many ways, kartacze with lentils or potato baba, or baked vegetables in herbs, frittatas or quiches. For breakfast, hummus or lentil or green pea paste, eggs on request, homemade jams, honey from the area, oatmeal or millet porridge with fruit.
Sometimes boredom is needed to get to know yourself or to take a break from a busy schedule. It helps you appreciate simple things, time spent with loved ones, or enter a state of meditation. In Dreams and Stones, relaxation and rest has a full range of possibilities ...
The wood-fired sauna with a shower in the garden is at your disposal 3-4 times a week. In summer, there is a private pier on the lake with a rowing boat next to it. In winter, for the brave, on the lake you can try a dozen pairs of skates (including super fast skates), there are also sleds, and the surrounding hills are quite large to slide down the claws.
In spring and summer there are hammocks, deck chairs, blankets - plenty of everything. There are several bikes at your disposal and great Suwałki-scenic routes. Morning and evening yoga can take place in a spacious room in a clearing next to the forest.
Beautiful paths for walking / cycling tours. In the vicinity (several, twenty kilometers) famous attractions of the Suwałki Region: Bridges in Stańczyki, Głazowisko Bachanowo, Suwałki Landscape Park, Lake Hańcza, Cisowa Góra, viewpoints in Smolniki, burial mounds of the Jaćwings. You have 45 km to the Wigry National Park.
What’s there for children?
Dreams and Stones are made for adults. Sometimes children are doing well here, but with special adult care (the area is partially fenced, there is no special security for children).
What’s there for employees?
There are no children in Dreams and Stones, and in the off-season, i.e. October - April, there are only potential guests from three rooms and apartments. That is why remote work is so comfortable with us.
In the living room, everyone will find a comfortable place for themselves, because there is a large table with 6-8 chairs and a small table with armchairs. In the Apartments there is a small table, a sofa and an armchair, and upstairs in the bedroom we have a table for finishing the last emails before closing the laptop.
After work, it's time for a vacation. Therefore, outside in the garden there is a chillout zone with a sofa and a bed on a large terrace. In the summer dining room under a shelter with a transparent roof, there is a lot of space to spend time together.
