Welcome to Guesthouse Jaundzelves – Your Peaceful Nature Escape in Latvia’s Wild Heart
Nestled deep in the untouched landscapes of Latvia, one of the three beautiful Baltic countries in Northern Europe, Guesthouse Jaundzelves offers a rare opportunity to slow down, reconnect with nature, and enjoy true peace and privacy. Surrounded by ancient forests, peaceful peat bogs, fields, cows grazing in a distance, cranes, swans and hawks flying overhead, and scenic cycling routes, our family-friendly countryside retreat is the perfect getaway for travelers seeking relaxation, adventure, and authentic local experiences.
Whether you're planning a romantic escape, a family holiday, or a quiet retreat with friends, Jaundzelves is where your nature story begins.
The House
Our cozy guesthouse is a restored traditional home designed to blend natural aesthetics with modern comfort. With warm wooden interiors and windows that open to forest and meadow views, it offers both charm and functionality. The house can accommodate up to 9 grownups comfortably, with two bedrooms, a spacious living area, a fully equipped kitchen, and a shower.
Key features include:
Comfortable beds with fresh linens and countryside views
Fully equipped kitchen with a stove, fridge, kettle, dishes, and utensils
Wi-Fi and smart TV
Wood-burning stove and sauna
Outdoor terrace with seating area and fire pit
Private garden space, perfect for picnics or stargazing
The Experience
What sets Jaundzelves apart is the unique natural environment surrounding it. Located near a pristine bog lake, the house is ideal for those who want to explore Latvia’s wild side – safely and peacefully.
Here’s what you can enjoy during your stay:
Bog hiking and wild swimming:
Step into the magical world of Latvia's peat bogs. Take a guided or self-guided walk on soft moss trails, watch for wildlife, and if you're feeling adventurous, take a dip in the pure, dark waters of the nearby bog lake – a local wellness tradition!
Cycling the Green Railways Route:
Bring your bikes or rent nearby – the famous Green Railways route passes close to the property. This scenic cycling path follows old railway lines, winding through forests, meadows, and villages, ideal for families and beginners.
Stargazing & bonfires:
With minimal light pollution, the night sky here is spectacular. Relax by the fire pit, roast marshmallows, and enjoy the silence broken only by the sounds of nature.
Birdwatching and photography:
Cranes, herons, deer, and foxes are frequent visitors. Bring your camera or binoculars – every season has its own beauty.
Canoe or bog-shoe tours (by request):
For the more adventurous, we can help arrange guided excursions into the bog. Discover a world unlike any you've seen before.
Great for Families
We love hosting families! The peaceful surroundings are safe for children to explore, and there’s plenty of space to run, play, and learn about nature. We provide:
A high chair and baby crib upon request
Board games and toys
Outdoor swings and simple sports equipment
Kids love walking barefoot on the moss, spotting frogs in the wetlands, and swimming in the bog lake (supervised).
Why Latvia?
Latvia is one of Europe’s hidden gems – a Baltic country with rich cultural history, vast forests, and more than 12,000 rivers and lakes. It’s part of the European Union and easily accessible by air, especially from major cities like Berlin, London, and Stockholm. Americans and Canadians often describe Latvia as a mix between Scandinavia and Eastern Europe – peaceful, green, and welcoming.
Jaundzelves is located in western Latvia, about:
1.5 hours from Riga International Airport
45 minutes from Estonia
40 minutes from the Baltic Sea coast (wild beaches and pine forests!)
