This is a great place to relax! Amazingly friendly owners, hospitable! Very tasty cuisine - simple, satisfying and incredibly delicious! An interesting location is near a lake, a forest, in the neighboring village you can buy homemade cheese (delicious, only young cheeses). This is the second time we have returned to this place and we will definitely return again!
Thanks for the super rest!

We rested there 3 times. Both in winter and in summer!!!
Very nice place! The food is incredibly delicious! The staff is warm-hearted and sociable!
There was something for both the children and us to do.
Separately, I would like to mention a vat of warm water.... The procedure is aerobatics! Here you are sitting in warm water, chatting with friends, and it's freezing outside, but you don't even feel it......
I recommend you to visit!

We had a family vacation from February 17 to 22, 2025, two adults, two children and a small dog Zara (a Welsh Terrier). We lived in Thomas's House, where we were perfectly accommodated. The children had our own rooms, my wife and I had a bedroom and one common room with a stove/fireplace. We walked, went to the forest, the children skated, visited the local sauna, and enjoyed everything very much! The food in the tavern is very tasty, the local chefs are super ready!!! The portions are large, our party did not always cope with the food))) they used to take it with them)) Special thanks to Alexander and Elena for the warm welcome!! The guys did well, they told me where to go and what to see

This place is a fairy tale! It's just great to relax on a Protected Island! Wonderful people, gorgeous untouched nature, the exterior and interior of the houses are inscribed in this wonderful nature. Fishing, mushrooms, just relaxing on the shore of a beautiful lake will leave an unforgettable impression. The kitchen is a separate topic, the food is very tasty, homemade, just incredible dishes are prepared. I definitely want to return to this place!

I enjoyed the rest, there were three days. The place is secluded, not in the village, there are several houses on the lake, we had a separate one. The food is great, delicious and plentiful, and the hospitality is great. There is a lot to see around, nature, ancient burial mounds, other tourist places and attractions

There are no words to describe all the warmth that comes after a week of staying with Alexander and Elena. It was so beautiful, so soulful and so delicious to me, as it had not been for a very long time!
The house is clean, everything is surrounded by care and created for comfort.
A bathhouse with access to the lake, a font with hot water!! It was a pleasure ... and after that, in the evening, dinner - knuckle with mashed potatoes, sauerkraut and local tinctures… We are lost! Thank you, we will definitely be back!

We had a great rest, lived in a house by the lake, it seems to me that this house is the most romantic of all, with a gorgeous view of the lake. The food was very tasty, homemade, like grandma's. There is wi-fi. When we were on vacation, there was a lot of snow, and the views were very beautiful, like in a fairy tale. I would like to return to this place, but most likely in the summer.
Of the cons: for such money, it was possible to organize an elementary shower gel and a hair dryer; wash the sink well for the arrival of guests; from entertainment in winter, only a walk, karaoke in the evening for all vacationers and a sauna for an additional fee. Ie. if a person does not like a sauna and karaoke, then only a walk remains, if the weather allows, but I think it will be more interesting in the summer.

Don't ever come here. This place is addictive. You won't want to leave here. The atmosphere is too relaxed here) The food is terribly delicious. I do not know what they put in the food, but upon arrival home, at first you want to take a break from such a gastronomic binge, and then you longingly remember all these dishes and a tear of longing rolls over ... you sleep too well here. It's unusually easy to breathe. In general, this is such a camp for adults) where you want to come back again and again ... if you just want to relax, then it's not here, because you can relax on a Protected island, only exceptionally well.

A quiet place, delicious homemade food (for cheesecakes and cinnamon rolls - respect to the cook!!!) It is located on the purest lake Sho)), where you can go boating or make an evening excursion to the island. Mini zoo-children will definitely be delighted (you can take treats for rabbits, raccoons or goats and pigs)

A delightful and fabulous place in the Belarusian countryside. Having been there, it becomes clear why this place is so very popular and many places there are heavily booked in advance. A beautiful natural area with a picturesque, clean lake and forest. Friendly hosts. There is an opportunity to go fishing or ride a SAPA. It will be interesting for children to visit the mini-zoo and feed the goats. On the lake there is the very reserved island where the Slavic symbols are located. If desired, you can get to this island by water. Traditional Belarusian food, very tasty and satisfying. Being in this territory, you practically lose track of time, because the soul is just resting.
PS. You do not need to touch the stork, it bites))

A wonderful place and wonderful owners of the estate! Everything is organized very concisely and in a single style and concept.
We rented a house by the lake in January, we were satisfied with everything! In the summer it will be just a cannon)
The food is very decent. The owners try to organize leisure activities as much as possible and acceptable.
Only positive emotions)))
Of the disadvantages, most likely a recommendation, you can consider the possibility of providing or buying slippers (chuniks) in winter. This moment was not provided for during the training camp, and comfortable home shoes would be very useful.

Great atmosphere, space, all rooms are different, accommodation options are not repeated. Goats-rabbits-raccoons: children will like such proximity to animals! And the kitchen is generally worthy of all praise! If desired, you can swim to the island, by the way, wish fulfillment...

A great place to spend a week, or better yet, more in a warm family environment. A picturesque secluded place in the forest on the shore of a beautiful lake. Insanely delicious Belarusian cuisine for breakfast, lunch and dinner. We have already been 2 times and we will be happy to come again!!! Thanks to the hospitality of the hosts! Keep the level up!

We had a great rest together. A separate house right by the water - 10 points out of 10. The view of the lake is gorgeous. The food is good, homemade. The hosts are friendly, trying to please. Meals are organized in a separate common room, together with other guests, which may not always be comfortable. The bathhouse is good, with a broom, But it is located in the same building as the tavern (dining room), which turned out to be a minus for me personally, because I had to steam to the sounds of karaoke. There is a place to walk around the surroundings, beautiful nature

A wonderful vacation for 2-4 days. The food is beyond praise. Mini zoo Park. There is a cheese factory next to it with very tasty cheese. A lake with fish of various calibers. And most importantly, they are very sincere hosts.
The only advice is to be careful when choosing a house to stay in. Not all of them are equally convenient. Discuss with the hosts what you want from your vacation and then you will have a great rest.

A wonderful place just by all the criteria of such a holiday:
Hospitable and courteous staff and hosts,
Delicious national and not only dishes in the kitchen;
A gorgeous bathhouse and the picturesque lake itself
Interesting neighbors (Velesai shlyakh: a goat farm with cheese tasting, a breeder of Belarusian-bred horses with skating, as well as a guerrilla story ...);
And, of course, the magnificent nature itself with glacial lakes, hills and forests!
We highly recommend it)))

we rested here with family and friends, everyone was with children. what did you like:
- very friendly hosts. we were not sure until the last moment that we would be able to come, but the owners kept the house that we wanted to book for us until the last. we were greeted with a glass of homemade moonshine and a sandwich - a trifle, but it's nice!
- great food! homemade, delicious, large portions. We didn't have to take separate meals for small children, two adult portions were more than enough for four of us. the potatoes are delicious, there are always some small snacks or salads on the table, compote. at the same time, there is round-the-clock access to tea and a coffee machine. the children, despite some selectivity in food, ate everything with pleasure!
- the location is great, quiet, beautiful. the purest lake, you can go fishing or take a boat (free of charge, paddles).
- the staff is friendly and friendly. for an additional fee, you can ride a horse-drawn chaise or take a steam bath. the guys will do everything in the best possible way!
- there are fumigators in the houses - in summer it is really important, although it would seem a trifle.
what could be improved:
- the houses still require minor cosmetic repairs. it can be seen that they are not new. however, we were in the summer and spent almost all our time outdoors, and only slept in the house, so small household shoals were not a hindrance. for example, there were almost no dishes in our house, although there are tiles. but you can take everything or ask for it in the kitchen.
the overall impression is great, I want to come back here again!

The estate is located 150 km from Vitebsk
Accommodation: there are several houses on the territory, in companies of different sizes. We had a house of 5-ideal for a family with 2 children. What I liked: the houses and the whole atmosphere are in such an atmospheric rustic-ethnic style, everything is made of wood, much is done by the hands of the owners, but the amenities like in a city apartment are just gorgeous:) plus the houses are heated by centralized heating.
Food: when we were going to go, I couldn't really find an approximate menu anywhere. So, for whom the menu for the day, which we had, is also important. Breakfast: porridge, scrambled eggs, pancakes. Lunch: cabbage soup, pasta with cutlet, eggplant roll. Dinner: chicken in cream sauce, potatoes, salad, layer cake with carrots.
Two coffee machines and tea are freely available☕️
Oh, yes! They meet you at the entrance with moonshine and sandwiches. 😎
Entertainment: for children there is a playground, a trampoline. Your own mini zoo: rabbits, lambs, pigs, partridges and pheasants. If your baby likes to sleep in front of the cages, you are here :) you can take two baby rabbits on your hands. But the star is of course Cheburashka (raccoon) It seems to me that he walks around the clock on his hands.
For adults, a sauna, a heated barrel, fishing…
There's a horse ranch nearby, but we didn't get there.
But we went on an excursion to the cheese factory, bought delicious homemade cheeses, fed the goats, and cuddled the goats

A quiet place for a secluded holiday in the heart of Belarus. Surrounded by beautiful lakes. We were a family of 7 people. Everyone, young and old, rated the Protected Island with 5 stars! Friendly hosts, delicious very homemade food, a heated font by the lake, an excursion on a homemade boat on the lake with a stop on the island of desires, cute animals that can be stroked - all this together gives what the inhabitants of cities lack, tranquility and tranquility, unity with nature.

This place is wonderful! We had a family vacation, two adults and two children 15/12 years old.
If you want to immerse yourself in Belarus itself, then you are definitely here. The place has an amazing, individual atmosphere. The farmstead looks very colorful against the background of amazing nature. A very harmonious combination of the splendor of lakes, forests, birdsong, azure sky with a very interesting architectural and landscape solution of the village. Each building (house, hut) is made in its own individual style and together makes up a kind of fabulous settlement.
We were resting in house No. 5 and we were very comfortable. The organizers were able to perfectly arrange everyday life and familiar comfortable conditions for a modern person without violating the authenticity of the spirit of this place.
Let's start with the fact that all the furniture is made by hand, but the mattresses are absolutely modern, new, comfortable. Separately, it should be said about the design of our house, knitted rugs and a bedspread are just the top of the cuteness. You can say that all the utensils and furniture in the house are original!
Modern amenities include: TV, WiFi, toilet, boiler, shower, hair dryer, kettle, stove, microwave, refrigerator (almost dead), dishes, soap accessories, salt, pepper, fumigators.
There is a large recreation area next to the house. Bonfire, barbecue. Special attention should be paid to the large veranda with a table and hanging swings in which it is very comfortable to spend the evening, or drink hot coffee at dawn.
Separately, I want to say about the power that is included. It's just unrealistic to eat it. The portions are huge, a great advantage is given to the Belarusian national cuisine and we, as tourists, are grateful for this because we really wanted to taste it from you. We ate a lot of places, it's DELICIOUS here! Don't even think about bringing any food and snacks with you, here you can cope with what is served for breakfast, lunch and dinner))))
I will not list the entertainment and related hobbies on the territory, they are described on the website.
We were very satisfied, we went home happy, hoping to definitely come back here.
A very warm and welcoming welcome, a wonderful atmosphere, complete autonomy of family holidays from others and at the same time you can find a company to communicate if you want. Alexander is very restrained and serious (he squeezed a glass of gasoline))).Elena is just a fairy from a fairy tale! The striking appearance of the goddess treated us very carefully and generally gave the impression of a keeper of the hearth and comfort in this fabulous place. Even with mosquitoes, thanks to her, we managed to come to an agreement. Thank you. We'll come again! Jyakui!
