Secluded apartment above the stables in a historical mill house

very cosy, spacious, extraordinary charming

This was our third stay in this lovely apartment. We love not just the location itself (quiet, rural) but also the fact that a lot of places are nearby, like Goerlitz and Boleslawiec, or reachable within a few hours. We decided to take a daytrip to Prague this year and that was easily done. Sara and Vitek are lovely people to talk to and with and helping out with the animals is always fun. As said before in earlier reviews: Sarah and Witek have great tips for you in their binder, but also last minute trips are shared so you have lots of choices for daytrips. We already know we will be back for another stay in the next couple of years.

I booked this apartment, along with the main house (separate booking), to accommodate my small group of travellers for a fully exclusive getaway that we were seeking in the delightful countryside of Poland. I absolutely fell in love with the whole historic property - which Sara and Witek have renovated so beautifully, and loved what I saw in both the apartment and the adjoining house, so I booked both! I've booked a lot of properties over the years - but I have to say that I have never witnessed the same care, passion and stunning touches as I have in the efforts of Sara and Witek to make their places somewhere that offers such a signature experience in a stay for guests. They have really smashed it in meeting comfort needs with exquisite and characterful surroundings - I cannot recommend enough if you're looking for somewhere with enchanting vibes, but to have great facilities too - this apartment ticks all the boxes! Everyone in my group particularly commented on, and enjoyed the balcony (a really nice feature of this place!) which looks out onto the pond/garden area - very relaxing and picturesque, with horses often playing and whinnying in the distance! Inside is particularly lush for how bright and spacious/open plan it is. You don't actually realise how big it is - but it will easily accommodate a couple for a luxury peaceful stay. Or a small family/group of friends where you would have ample space for chilling out/doing individual activities and not get under each others feet. The kitchen is very well kitted out, (I used it a lot for cooking for my party, as well as eating out at the many great local restaurants). In hindsight, our group was way small for the whole apartment (and house) that we booked, but we were travelling specifically for a creative photography holiday and thus really did appreciate how creatively designed and styled the apartment was. It's the fine touches too - from an artistic point we saw this right away... There's a LOT of effort that Sara and Witek have gone to in order to make this as nice as it is. :) Communications from Sara were excellent from the start - it actually took us two years to get out to Poland for our trip because of the pandemic! Thus there were occasions where we had to reschedule as travel was limited/uncertain, and even though it's been an awful time for property owners trying to let - I have nothing but gratitude for the understanding & willingness to accommodate in the run up to our trip.

Z wyboru, naszej obchodzacej 21-urodziny córki, znaleźliśmy się w tym niezwykłym obiekcie o niepowtarzalnej strukturze architektonicznej wnętrza. Pochodzenia każdego elementu wyposażenia dużego i bardzo wygodnego mieszkania można szukać jedynie w dalekiej historii jak i odległych światowych kulturach. O ile zdjęcie obiektu budzi już zainteresowanie, to nietuzinkowość wnętrza wpisuje się jedynie w program odkrywczy koneserów i osób pragnących choć na moment zapomnieć o codzienności, cofnąć się w historii i wypocząć na łonie cudownej natury, z dala od cywilizacyjnego zgiełku. Nawet dom właścicieli obiektu znajduje się kilkaset metrów dalej. Naszym codziennym rytuałem stało się karmienie z ręki trzech przepięknych, oswojonych koni, kucyka i trzech osiołków. Jednak totalny szok przeżyliśmy, gdy korzystając z zaproszenia przemiłych gospodarzy, pani Sary i Pana Witka, zajrzeliśmy do ich prywatnej galerii w ich domu. Malarstwo, sztuka, architektura, rzeźby oraz instrumenty muzyczne z całego świata. Z każdego kąta trąci egzotyką. W żadnym ze światowych muzeów nie widzieliśmy takiej obfitości eksponatów zgromadzonych na jednym metrze kwadratowym. Tego nie da się opisać to trzeba po prostu zobaczyć. Do wyboru pozostaje jeszcze sporo atrakcji turystycznych na terenie Polski, Niemiec oraz Czech, bo tu właśnie spotykają sie granice tych państw. Byliśmy tylko 6 dni, to o wiele za mało. Napewno wrócimy w to miejsce. Urzekło nas swoim urokiem.
