In Przecznica, in the quiet of the Izera Mountains, there is a clearing. Such a place that it is impossible otherwise - busy thoughts start to slow down and wrinkles are smoothed out. In the middle of the clearing, there is an over 100-year-old house and it is also in no hurry. It won a lottery ticket in the form of a second chance at life and now has five comfortable rooms with a total capacity of 18 guests.
Take related souls and come whenever you want, because there is always something to do here. In the summer, adrenaline is released by riding bicycles on forest routes, for the best pancakes with blueberries, you must enter Hala Izerska, and in the winter you can cross the fresh snow on cross-country skis or stare at the wonderful views without moving from your armchair by the fireplace.
Come and visit us, where you live at the highest mountain level, and the entertainment includes sitting by the river, where apparently nothing is happening.
As the story goes, the country house in which you will sleep is not in Przecznica but in Radoszków. After referring to source materials, it turned out that before the war the upper part of the village had a separate name of Hegewald or Hegewaldhauser.
When we were renovating our old house, we wanted it to be bright and spacious.
Make yourself comfortable in 5 rooms, which can sleep a total of 18 people. We have in stock:
- one double room,
- four 4-bed rooms.
Each room has a comfortable bathroom with a spacious shower cabin, and the price includes white as well as Izera snow towels and fragrant bedding. We don't have TV sets, because the views outside the window are so beautiful that we don't want to distract you with soap operas.
There is also unlimited use of the common space at your disposal. Cows used to reside here, now, after careful renovation, there is a living room with a fireplace and a kitchen with a dining room. Make yourself at home here, you can cook and talk together until the early morning hours, play board games, read books by the fireplace or write poems praising the beauty of the Jizera Foothills.
We also have a place for your skis, bicycles, snowboards and sledges.
PS. We live according to the rhythm of the countryside and nature, respecting our planet. We do not want to worry her, so we ask you for help in throwing waste into marked containers, turning off the light after leaving the room, maintaining the right temperature in the house in winter, i.e. airing the rooms briefly but intensively in the winter season. We also ask you not to smoke at home.
In Polana, we prepare a tasty breakfast, which is additionally payable, also see the price in the price list.
Other meals can be prepared in the equipped kitchen (without an oven) in the common area. People who like to eat are good people, so when you eat, you will definitely meet friends for conversation and evening games of cards.
There is also a place for a bonfire and grill in our area, which we often use. And while feasting, we recommend looking at the sky - watch out for heads, the stars are falling to power.
We have several proven tasty addresses:
- Go skiing or on foot to Chatka Górzystów on Hala Izerska for the iconic biscuit pancakes with cottage cheese and an absurd amount of berries.
- In winter or summer, it is always worth visiting the PTTK Shelter on Stóg Izerski, for example for an apple pie in a set with lemon tea, a cake with goulash and tea with rum, or mulled wine. In season, it's best to go for dumplings with blueberries.
- Every Saturday in Jelenia Góra you can go to the Agricultural Market - Górskie Smaki. This is an intimate fair where you can eat unforgettable Jizera flavors. The best sheep's cheeses, vegan cakes, crispy breads, homemade preserves and a local beer
We do not support laziness, but we do not impose anything. We are always on the move, also if you need a guide, instructor, companion, want to rent skis or bikes like in the smoke - we will certainly help.
In the cavernous garden, you can do whatever you want: play badminton, throw a Frisbee or simply spread out a blanket or a sun lounger and read a book.
We like to feast and spend time by the fire, so in the garden you will find a place for grilling and focusing. We recommend winter bonfires with cauldron dishes - they warm up better than many saunas.
As we have already mentioned, the word boredom does not exist in our dictionary and it carries us a bit, so in our house, in the clearing, various workshops are held from time to time. When booking, ask if something new is going on.
On foot:
- Route Jakuszyce - Orle - Szklarska Poręba, which we personally tested with our daughters, one in a pram and the other on a bicycle.
-The vicinity of Pilchowice is a recommendable place for autumn walks. When visiting the Water Dam in Plichowice, be sure to see the steel railway bridge from 1906, which is a beautiful addition to the picturesque landscape.
- If you want to admire Przecznica from above, be sure to go to Jelena Skały - (Hirschstein) Cliff. The route is 1.6 km long, which takes about 40 minutes. This is not a trip for families with little ones, because you will be washed over the stones, and the rails and rails have vague memories.
By bicycle:
- Singletrack pod Smerkiem - Świeradów Zdrój. Singletracks are cycle routes that are one cyclist wide. Since 2008, a network of such paths has been created on the Czech-Polish border, between Novy Mest and Świeradów Zdrój. The route offers a different level of difficulty, and choosing the speed to suit your driving level, you will feel safe there, even with children.
We are avid cyclists and we create new singletracks ourselves. We are happy to suggest where is the best. And you can rent mountain bikes from our neighbors.
On skis:
- Ski & amp; Sun - Gondola lift, ski runs (10 km),
- Harrachov ski complex, ski runs and bicycle paths (43 km),
- Ski Arena Szrenica, Szklarska Poręba, ski runs (29 km),
- Jakuszyce - about 100 km of cross-country ski trails (36 km).
In winter, in the neighborhood, we have plenty of opportunities to put on cross-country skis and admire the terrain from skis.
In the neighborhood:
- There will also be a job for artistic souls in Przecznica. Stara Kuźnia is a place where handicraft workshops (mainly ceramics, potter's wheel, mosaic, decoupage, soap and felt workshops) take place.
By car:
- Get in the car and go to the Czocha Castle in Sucha, located on a hill above the beautiful Leśnia Lagoon.
What’s there for children?
For children, we have a huge clearing for having fun, huts to build, and a river for dipping feet. Nature does the job herself and chases boredom out of children's heads.
In winter, a sledge is a must, for which the best place is definitely the meadow at our neighbors. Down the hill to the claws only there.
Due to the specificity of the old house (steep stairs and a fireplace in the living room), we recommend stays for children over 7 years of age. The area around the house is not fenced. We do not have a playground, swings and sandbox.
Involve your children in all the other activities in which you will participate. Skiing, cross-country skiing, mountain walks and even singletrack descents will be a brilliant way for them to discharge their energy.
In the Julia crystal glassworks in Piechowice, kids can take part in mini-glassworks workshops, where they recreate the individual stages of crystal glass production in a safe form.
