Three independent, intimate and very cosy spaces of 65m2 in an old barn, immersed in the wild nature of the spa protection zone of Połczyn Zdrój, in the Drawsko Landscape Park, in the direct vicinity of the magical nature reserve of the Valley of Five Lakes...
We created Jelonki 2 vege agrotourism as a place for regeneration, deep breathing, coming back to oneself. We are surrounded by untamed meadows, forests, backwaters and clear waters. Beyond our hill are two wild ponds. And endless space. Wild boar and deer. And a pair of cranes - always close by. Here time passes more slowly, and the world is experienced more fully and attentively...
Come, thirsty for the bushes and whispers of the earth, it is beautiful...
"Words have become cheaper. They have multiplied, but have lost their value. They are everywhere. There are too many of them. They swarm, swarm, pester like swarms of persistent flies. They deafen. So we long for silence. For silence. For a walk through fields. Through meadows. Through a forest that rustles but does not babble, chatter, or chant. "Ryszard Kapuściński
🌿
In an old converted barn, we have created 3 beautiful independent apartments. Each is 65m2 and was created with singles and couples looking for a large dose of space in mind. All with kitchenettes and atmospheric bathrooms. Most of the elements are recycled, such as 120-year-old beams from Victorian houses that came with us from London to receive a second life in Jelonki. They were used to create, among others, the window sills made by Marek. :)
Each space is different, each has a separate entrance.
On the ground floor there is one space 01 with a large kitchen-dining room, an indecently spacious bathroom with a very atmospheric open shower and a bedroom and living room:
- bedroom with a double, very comfortable bed,
- living room with a large sofa bed.
On the first floor you will find two studio apartments (open space), over 65m2 each. With equipped kitchenettes, bathrooms and a terrace overlooking the deer hill, birches, forest creatures walking and the starry sky. Each of the apartments has a separate entrance from the terrace. In apartment 03 you will find a double shower and old bricks after the passages. In 02 - the most light.
We recommend drinking your morning coffee in your pajamas on a hill or among our birch trees. No one is watching. And the hosts themselves are very ruffled, especially early in the morning...
Be sure to pack your wellies! It's worth it!
ON THE SPOT YOU CAN ALSO:
- Arrange a walking conversation in English with Marek
- Order Marek to plan cycling routes adapted to your abilities/preferences
- Order a photo session in nature with Ana
- Arrange a forest immersion with a local arborist Bush Doctor (but be warned - the schedule is tight!)
✽✽✽
We really appreciate the simplicity of our rural life in harmony with the seasons, away from the hustle and bustle.
We are located far from spraying, surrounded by beautiful wildlife and we try to interfere as little as possible with its natural state. We cultivate the garden without spraying, and we discharge sewage to the home ecological sewage treatment plant. We take care of biodiversity and do not mow the grass everywhere. We appreciate the important role of "weeds" and we use many of them in our kitchen. We invite pollinators to the garden. We collect rainwater. We drink tap water from a local intake near our habitat. We segregate waste. We save water and electricity - and we kindly ask you to help us reduce energy losses. We do not shoot on New Year's Eve.
✽✽✽
There is no possibility of smoking tobacco or having bonfires on the premises
Jelonki 2 | WEGE | LESS-WASTE | HATE-FREE
Each apartment of the Jelonki 2 agritourism has a fully equipped kitchen, where you can eat your own or those received from us dishes and products at your discretion, at any time, in the selected combination and quantity... It is not possible to cook or eat meat dishes in our apartments.
We will be happy to advise you where to eat well in the area. You can also order products and preserves from our and nearby farms.
Our guests are free, they manage their own time. That is why we do not offer traditional meals in the settlement. However, you can order two-day veggie boxes (baskets of our products and local products delivered to you by friendly farms). Their compositions are subject to modifications depending on the season and abundance of crops. We love to cook and we love to eat well! Taste is just as important to us as the quality of food. We feed you with the goodness from our garden, from our crops, and we also enable you to stock up on fresh, honest products from local, mostly organic farmers and manufacturers. We bake wonderful sourdough bread with deer herbs for you, also gluten-free. We do not have room for highly processed food from the supermarket... As standard, meals for guests are vegetarian. Vegan on request. For those of you who plan to spend time actively during your stay with us, we recommend stocking up on a thermos for food to take with you to the field.
In every space, oatmeal, good coffee and good teas await you, which you can feel free to help yourself to!

Here you will find untidy wild bushes, a hill where, among lush grasses and herbs, you will welcome the day with the cranes' bell and feed your spirit with the most beautiful sunsets. The hill is addictive. The power of the thickets remains in your heart forever.... You will wade through meadow valleys, forests, pools... endlessly as much as your heart desires. You can hop on a bike (lots of attractions for cyclists, including avid ones!), if you like - you can run, stretch, meditate... Or you can stay all day in an atmospheric space and won't leave your comfortable bed for a week or two....

What’s there for children?
We don't have a typical playground. And we don't plan. In Jelonki, we want to restore childhood to our and your children, to detach them from the concrete, rigid frames, the world delineated by adults and free their wild joy of experiencing, playing according to their own rules, losing themselves in their imagination and unkempt nature around us ...
