Attractions on the farm

THE LIME KLIN

We do not know the exact origins of our farm, but it was probably built in the 17th-18th century as the backbone of a “lime factory” – the remains of the quarry in which the raw material was extracted (limestone rock), are visible just outside the property. On the farm there is a lime kiln, a beautiful monument of technical culture from the old days, and brick pits (bathtubs) to extinguish it.

These facilities are now being restored, but you can view them from the outside.

STABLE

Our stable, once a residential and farming building, is as old as the lime kiln. It is located in a historic stone building from the 17th–18th century. Guests can enter the building attended.

We breed horses of the Silesian breed in the so-called old type (without the addition of full English blood). For those interested, there is an opportunity to participate in daily activities related to horse care, after individual arrangements and with assistance. Currently, we have 4 horses of the Silesian breed on the farm – 3 mares and a gelding.

We do not have a horse riding school for guests, but we do run a horse boarding business – to horse owners we offer attractive discounts in our guesthouse.

Fauna

Our farm – because of the location on the fringe and the absence of cats – is also home to a large number of birds. Nesting here are swallows (Hirundininae, mainly in the stable), tits (Paridae), nuthatches (Sittinae), buntings (Emberizidae), field sparrows (mazurkas, Passer montanus), robins (Erithacus rubecula), wrens (Troglodytidae), goldfinches (Carduelis carduelis), cinderellas (Phoenicurus ochruros), woodpeckers (Picidae), wagtails (Motacillidae), as well as serious predators – buzzards (Buteo buteo) and owls (Striginae).

Sometimes other birds visit, including greenfinches (Chloris chloris), siskins (Spinus spinus), hawfinches (Coccothraustes) and bullfinches (Pyrrhula pyrrhula). Last winter, a flock of redpolls (Acanthis flammea) visited our feeders.

Flora

Flora

Flora-lovers will find here dozens of different plants – flowers, shrubs and trees. We planted, among others, shrubs attracting butterflies, bees and bumblebees.

Inside the former quarry there is a site of a very rare species of ferns, and on the farm grows a dozen or so bushes of spurge laure (Daphne mezereum) – under partial conservation protection.

On our meadows you can meet a Polish orchid: heath spotted orchid or moorland spotted orchid (Dactylorhiza maculata). This plant is also under partial conservation protection and placed among endangered species on the Red List of plants and fungi of Poland.

Bicycles

The location of our farm encourages cycling trips – along the existing cycle paths and along a network of roads and paths among fields, meadows and forests. During the warm season (spring – summer), amateur races and bicycle tours are also organized in the area.

The Jizera Mountains are a real paradise for cyclists of all ages.
