The experience

We are a family consisting of my wife, my two-year-old son, our older dog and myself.
Our home is our little project and we hope to welcome you as our little support.
Our home used to be a farm, but we don't keep animals or do any farming. We are renovating and refurbishing the farmhouse step by step.
The house is situated in the countryside, where you can get to know the real Czech country life.
