Osada Ptaśnik

In an almost 300-year-old log room, the oldest part of our Jizera house, which we lovingly restored to its former glory over the course of a year. It was intense and although a large part of the settlement is already beautiful and ready, there is still a lot ahead of us. We have prepared for you one apartment (40 m2) for 4 people, dominated by natural materials, blues, wood, stone, brick and a homely atmosphere. We have one double bed, watched over by angels, and two single beds. It will also fit a travel cot for a child. We divided the summer kitchen adjacent to the room into two parts. The first one has a kitchenette with a fridge, an electric kettle and a toaster, as well as tea, coffee and sugar. There is also a salvaged bread cabinet which, after removing the layers of oil paint, breathes deeply and hides beautiful dishes on its shelves. In the second part of the room we have a bathroom with a shower, where you will find towels, soap, shampoo and a hairdryer. Note - hot water in the shower can be very hot! For ecological reasons, we do not change towels automatically and regularly, so please report this need. The apartment is located on the ground floor, which is shared with a small cafe that we have set up. We occupy the first floor of the house, but our doors are open to you. Guests happily eat meals at our table or come over for a chat over coffee, borrow books and board games from us, and children play with our children. The house has an undeniable atmosphere, soul and a piece of history hidden within the walls. During the crazy renovation, we tore up the floors, discovered old boards, painted them ocean blue, saved old furniture and wandered through flea markets. We use natural raw materials of local origin. Many wooden, stone and brick elements often come from recycling and are given a second life by us, serving as furniture or finishing. We have a lot of forged elements, because our house was a forge in the past. Remember that the building is very old, so the floor creaks here and there and you can hear the footsteps of the residents. We encourage you to take slippers/shoes with you - they will be especially useful when there is mud or snow outside. The settlement includes an orchard with old trees and a garden where we grow organic vegetables. We invite you with pets, we have quite a group ourselves! However, please consult us in advance. Our purebred mutts - Sonia and Skrobek, kittens Gizela and Chrupka and guinea pig Helena are waiting for four-legged guests.

Tasty, simple, home cooking prepared by us for us and for you. We make delicious breakfasts with the option to take out sandwiches. Both breakfasts and dinners can be meat, vegetarian or vegan (we add 25% of the regular price to vegan meals). Dinners are soup, main course, dessert, coffee, tea and long digestion. We make silage, tinctures, jams, syrups, purees and sauces ourselves. Our cellar is full of goodness. For dinner, there may be pizza, coconut soup with lentils, cauliflower curry, ground and whatever else we can think of. In winter, we will treat you with raspberry sauce, warming tincture, chokeberry juice and cough syrup, and all year round with wonderful desserts. Our property includes an orchard with old trees and a garden where we grow organic vegetables. We live in a raspberry and tomato paradise, so there will be plenty of it. Sometimes we have such a harvest that the jars burst at the seams, and even the tastiest currants come out sideways. Then we distribute the crops in good hands and are happy to be able to feed the hungry. Attention! We do not serve dinner on Sundays.

We are constantly getting to know the area and we have the impression that the region's attractions are a bottomless pit. Festivals, concerts, markets with local products, castles, ski slopes, viewpoints, bicycle routes and hiking trails. Both enthusiasts of active recreation and those who prefer unhurried relaxation will have plenty to do. We often climb the nearby "Bench" and enjoy the view of the Jizera and Kaczawskie Mountains, which we highly recommend to you. You can also ride a bike or put on protectors and go on the nearby single-tracks, i.e. forest and mountain routes. It is also worth a walk to the top of Kufla, because the Central Border Post of Izerbaijan proudly stands there. It is a symbol of freedom, independence, peace, kindness and openness erected by us - the residents. Its performer is Teo from the Izerbaijan band, and the initiator of the name is Grzegorz Żak, a Lusatian storyteller, bard and poet. In fact, it is not a border post because it is not located on the border, but in the center. Between the mountains and foothills, with a phenomenal view of the Jizera Foothills and a location far from everything. The pole fits perfectly with the idea of free Izerbaijan. That is, us - residents and lovers of this part of Poland. In the vicinity of our house there are also: - fields, meadows, forests, - running routes - Run Track, - bicycle routes - Single Track, - cross-country ski trails, - one of two Dark Sky Parks in Poland, - several beautiful beaches and lakes, - gondola lift in Świeradów-Zdrój, - the palace in Pobiedna and the Mon Plaisir tower, - castles: Czocha, Rajsko, Frydlant, Świecie, Lenno, Chojnik, - Wolimierz Station. You can use the free bus to Świeradów-Zdrój - to the ski slopes and to Nové Mesto - to the bicycle routes. Delivery by our car is also possible. In summer, the area is brimming with events, concerts and warm evenings. We wholeheartedly recommend the summer festival at Stacja Wolimierz - music, workshops, games and activities for children, lectures, vegetarian food and amazing energy of good people are waiting for you. Fans of strong sounds, pogo on stage and positive vibrations are invited to Izerbaijan Punk Eko Fest. This is a festival created for you, in which "Punk is not Dead" is the driving force of life and the road covered with studs. It is a combination of music and the promotion of wild, natural and clean Jizera Mountains. Our kids fell in love with this festival. The sight of children jogging - priceless. You have to experience it, we will definitely be there. In winter, skiing and sleigh rides, cross-country skiing, mulled wine, snowmen and snowballs, and when it gets warm - Open Day of Half-timbered Houses, Open Gardens of the Jizera Foothills, exciting field trips and games with our friendly guides from Discover Silesia, Sunday stock exchange in Cieplice, sightseeing castles and bonfire nights.
