The Polish lake district, in the northeast of the country (known as the Warmia/Masuria province), is an agrarian wonderland. There are more than 2,000 lakes in the region, and it’s a popular weekend getaway for Warsovians. Opened in 2015, Kwaśne Jabłko, in a tiny village called Włodowo, is a friendly, beautiful place to spend some lake district days. A working farm and apple cider production facility, the guesthouse is run by a young couple with two children. (In fact, the place is incredibly kid-friendly.) Rooms are spacious and beautifully designed, with spare, rustic furnishings and slate-tiled bathrooms. Hearty breakfasts and dinners, served around the long communal table that opens out to a big deck, are prepared by Marcin and Ewa with fresh-from-the-garden produce and local meat. Take home some of their apple cider as a gift—they just started full production this year and hope to expand in the future, as you’ll see from the freshly planted apple orchard.

Cider agroturismo
It’s all too dreamy, you arrive, they hand you a glass of the cider created on premises then you sit down to a communal dinner created from local ingredients. The surrounding countryside undulates away from your window while the hosts will guide you local swimming lakes. Or you can just hang out. Games, bikes, walks, all sorts of activities are yours to be had.
