Buildings.
Our guest can choose between two buildings to stay - the Main House and the Stable.
The Main House can accommodate a maximum 8 people in three rooms, and the Stable next 7 in two rooms, so that only 15 people can stay at the Ranch enjoying comfort and tranquility.
Our Main House’s design imitates traditional Carpathians houses, but it was improved to make best use of light and space. You will enjoy the sunlight coming through the big windows as well as plenty of undivided space, which gives you the feeling of big private, intimate living space (which you miss in the big cities and standard hotels).
The Stable house is an exact copy of the traditional Carpathian house – one building farmstead, which was typical for the Low Beskid region in the end of the XIX. The original building can be seen in the Open Air Museum in Sanok (see more at Tours - local places of interest). Interior has been divided into a living quarter on one side of the hall and a spacious stable for horses, storage and saddle room on the other side, joint with a corridor. In keeping with the original style of the Stable house we have designed two spatial rooms, where you can feel like in a real farm house, listen to the sounds of neighbouring forest and voices of the horses.
In every room, doesn’t matter in which building you stay, you can explore the beauty of the wood and listen to amazing sounds it makes. Different colours, cracks, knots, joints are natural decoration of all rooms. You can count knots before you fall asleep if you want, but we assure you that you won’t need your sleeping pills here. Fresh, circulating mountain air, good and healthy food, lots of excitement , long night talks or/and star watching will make you sleep like a log. Rooms are spacious and feature wood furnishings most of them designed and built at the Ranch. There are no carpets and no television, just silence, natural simplicity and plain comfort. All is non-smoking area. It’s perfect environment for people who want to relax after a daylong outdoor experience or guests who want to be on their own, enjoy the surroundings of the Eco-Frontiers Ranch or/and concentrate on their own creative work – painters, writers, artists, etc.
