There is a house where the culture-lovers and the culture-enthusiasts, the homemakers and the travellers, the Hanks and the Bohemians, the girls and the big boys will feel comfortable, where the number of inhabitants does not exceed a hundred and the village is divided into upper and lower parts. It is not an ordinary building with a roof, windows and an entrance; it is an asylum from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and a refuge of Karkonosze peace.
The story begins in Gajówka, a charming holiday village between Jelenia Góra and Świeradów Zdrój. There are as many houses as there are cats, and each of them hides secrets. On the hill, at number 16, you will find Dom w Domu, which can be proud of its 200 years of history and wealthy owners. It used to belong to silk weavers. A story we have heard says that in the upper part of the grove, at the bottom of one of the buried wells, there is a treasure hidden for the soldiers of the Polish Army. Maybe it is right here? We do not know, but we hope that together we will discover the mystery of the past.
We invite you to fields and meadows, fields of grain, mountains and hills. For the most comfortable beds in this latitude, breakfasts that will make you lick your fingers and a view worth every penny. Our little guides Tomek and Igor, are already waiting!
We are closer to friends than to hoteliers, and we want our house to become your house.
At number 16, in a 200-year-old silk weavers' house, into which we breathed new life. We have made every effort and put a lot of heart into preserving the old atmosphere while maintaining the highest standards. Remember, however, that it is an old wooden house, so sometimes you can hear the household's footsteps, creaking or the sound of ceilings.
We can accommodate a total of 26 people longing for silence and clean air in comfortable rooms for 2, 4 or 5 people. We are waiting with heavenly beds with a double mattress, a view of the Karkonosze and Jizera Mountains and a 100-meter terrace in selected rooms.
For hedonists, there is an intimate SPA with a traditional Finnish sauna, a steam bath, a relaxation zone with a salt wall and an outdoor jacuzzi on the open-air terrace. Additionally, you can arrange relaxing massages. The SPA is included in the price, every evening.
In addition to 7 rooms, there is a dining room where meals are served, a place for bicycles, skis and ski boots, and a relaxation area with sofas. In the living room, you can warm yourself by the fireplace and read. Our library is full of books and board games. There is also a games and entertainment room for children and adults, equipped with a large TV with an Xbox Kinect set, a retro Nintendo set and comfortable large pouffes. Access to hundreds of movies and online series included in the package, and for children there are many toys, blocks and a large wall for painting with chalk.
Each room has single beds that can be easily joined into huge (180x200 cm) double beds, a modern bathroom with a shower and a hairdryer, and free Wi-Fi.

We believe that the way to the heart is through the stomach, and delicious food brings people together and softens morals. We pamper you with local delicacies, rich breakfasts, and with the first lark we wake up with the smell of fresh bread and aromatic coffee.
Our horse and great pride are filling breakfasts, which we serve in the form of a buffet from 8:00 to 10:00. Children will always find something they like to eat. Even the pickiest eaters eat until their ears tremble. We prepare dinners on selected days of the week: 2 dishes with compote (meat or vegetarian). During the day you can order soup or pancakes or use our home-made preserves. Other dishes will be served by 3 different restaurants.
There is a coffee machine with sweets at your disposal all day long. At home, you can also use a small kitchenette to prepare small meals or baby food. There is a fridge, microwave, kettle, small electric hob, saucepan and frying pan, as well as dishes, glass and cutlery. However, these are not conditions for preparing lavish dinners.
We don't like half-measures and we cook for you just like we eat ourselves. We have vegetables, fruits and herbs from our own garden and ozonated ones from the store. We buy eggs from our neighbors in Gajówka and Młyńsk, from naturally fed hens, and we buy cheese from a friendly farm. The cold meats are real delicacies, and the real bread is baked by our neighbor Łukasz. We have chairs and plastic tableware for children.
We try to prepare vegan dishes upon request. Notify us in advance.
On selected days of the week we serve 2-course dinners with home-made compote. We serve them at 17-18, in low season from Tuesday to Saturday, winter holidays, June and September 1-15 from Monday to Saturday, and every day during holidays and long weekends. When ordering dinner, we add a discount to the reservation! It is possible to order meals in nearby restaurants/bistros. They will be delivered by one of the three restaurants we cooperate with.
As experienced travelers, we know what ingredients create a good rest. The recipe for the best vacation at home away from home is peace, bliss, overall well-being of the body and mind. Calming down thoughts and boredom are even advisable in times when we slowly forget what it is like to lie upside down. With us, you can spend your time on many activities or simply doing nothing. Some of our guests usually don't go anywhere, they just have a good rest in a large, ancient orchard and a garden with a pond.
Our motto is "rest well", so we have prepared a few corners for you that will dispel boredom in the rain for a moment, integrate and diversify long autumn evenings.
- play and games room for children and adults
- bookcase,
- a rack with numerous promotional materials: tourist leaflets, maps, books about the area, etc.,

The house in the house lies within the "dark sky" with a cosmic view of the spilled milky way. Romantic star performances and catching a star from the sky on a deck chair is special here. Avid anglers and amateurs of silence with soaking the rod in the lead role can fish in our pond.
We know what's up in the grass, where to go, what to see, where to eat and what routes to cover. We are happy to advise you on how to plan your day or go on a trip by bike or car. A small foretaste of the avalanche of attractions that await in the vicinity of Gajówka:
