At a glance


Whenever I travelled abroad, I collected art. Vintage items, furniture, paintings and sculptures. And when I finally found a house with a view of the Karkonosze Mountains - these items found a home with me. Every corner of the house remembers those journeys. Decorating is an art, I love it. Taras Tarczyn has been written about in such magazines as Weranda or in "Odetchnij od Miasto" by Aleksandra Bogusławska, and its history, beauty and location attract wonderful people here. They are looking for nature, silence, art, design and a bit of artistic nonchalance.

When you come here in your free time, even for a short weekend, make yourself a coffee, listen to the silence, look into the distance, where you can see Śnieżka, and sometimes also Śnieżne Kotły. The view is spectacular. It was this wonderful surrounding nature that inspired me to design an (eco) house and its interior. It all connects. Or, as the famous artist Hans Vis once told me: "It all breathes together."

We are on-site, we give our guests space and intimacy, but we're always ready to help

My name is Urian. I'm a Dutchman, I'm 67 years old and I'm passionate about nature, interiors, art and good food. Professionally I am a gardener, designer and painter. I came here about 34 years ago and have already stayed, working on my guesthouse in Tarczyn since more than twenty four years. Tarczyn is the most beautiful place on earth. It is my greatest passion. Once an inn and a barn, now several apartments for explorers and adventurers mainly from Poland and around the world.

Miejsce jest przepiękne i niezwykle klimatyczne, urządzone ze smakiem i artystycznym twistem. Urian jest przemiły i pozytywnie nastawiony. Niestety musieliśmy skrócić nasz wyjazd ze względu na uczulenie na psa i kota, które dokuczało nam nawet w oddzielnym pokoju. Dodatkowo w pokoju i łazience było zimno.

Miejsce nie nadaje się do pobytu w zimę! Fakt, że gospodarz je wynajmuje o tej porze roku jest po prostu nieuczciwe. Gdy przyjechaliśmy na miejsce w naszym apartamencie temperatura wynosiła 12 stopni! Gospodarz powiedział, że gdy napalimy w kominku i przestrzeń szybko się nagrzeje. Nie było to prawdą - całą noc zamarzaliśmy, a mój partner musiał nastawiać budzik w nocy co dwie godziny, żeby dorzuc...

First of all: I strongly suggest NOT to visit during freezing conditions (winter time). This is important to be on top of the review. We stayed 30.12 - 03.01 for NYE in the Loft. It is located on first floor above other apartments and has three separate bedrooms + big common area with fireplace and a kitchen. There is one toilet combined with shower available. First of all, the positives: - locati...

We've stayed for two days in the Dutch room. Right off the bat, we've been greeted by the neighbor's dog which, as if just waiting for this opportunity, showed us around the house. The place has an incredible atmosphere, like out of a fable, with all of the rooms really inspiring imagination. There are two lovely, friendly cats. The place is very quaint, peaceful, yet with cities not far, so shopp...

Przepiękne miejsce, idealne na wypoczynek. Cisza, spokój i niesamowity widok na okolicę – dokładnie to, czego potrzeba, by na chwilę odetchnąć od codzienności. Wszystko urządzone z dużym smakiem i wyczuciem – przytulnie, klimatycznie i z pomysłem. Widać, że właściciel włożył w to miejsce serce i ma artystyczne spojrzenie na detale. Zdecydowanie polecam każdemu, kto szuka chwili wytchnienia w wyjąt...
