We were in "Carpathian meadows" twice, in 2008 and 2009, both times in August. I liked it very much! ! ! The second time we went as to close relatives. Now we look at the photos with pleasure and dream of going there again. If you want to take a break from the bustle of the city and enjoy the Carpathian nature and hospitality - you are definitely there! If, for you, the availability of disposable shampoos and conditioner in the room is paramount for you, you will probably find shortcomings that we did not pay attention to.
I learned that on this site you can leave a review about the rest in the "Carpathian meadows" and eagerly took up the pen, but after reading the review of Oksana "Oscara" in the studio! ! The most sincere and correct hotel in the world! ”, I realized that I can’t describe so many details, but I can subscribe to every word of hers. Everything she writes is not an exaggeration, but the purest truth!
For those who have not yet read her review (and I highly recommend it!
And in the evening we boarded the train again and early in the morning at Stryi station they were waiting for us at the door of the car.
We were greeted at the hotel by the owners, who, as it turned out, do not live there permanently, but come several times a year during their holidays. And they brought us from Stryi, by the way, before dawn. So, they met us as if they had been waiting for our arrival all the last months. I was very surprised then, but then I stopped being surprised.
The owners of the hotel, Igor and Tatiana, are very nice, friendly people. And very energetic! On the very first day, they infected us with their activity and inspired us to go on an excursion to the reserve and the Dovbush rocks, and also to mount horses. And not only me, who longed for horses with all my heart, but also my mother, an elderly woman and in the body. By the way, both sat on a horse for the first time (I don’t count a 5-minute ride in Gorky Park in my deep childhood).
And then it started: walking and horseback riding, picking herbs, mushrooms, blackberries (right on the territory), excursions, sunbathing on a sunbed and swimming in the lake (pottery appeared the next year, and we also paid tribute to it) ...And every day - enjoying the marvelous Carpathian views, silence and the purest fragrant air. It seems that only one day we spent a lot of time in the room, when the whole area was shrouded in thick fog. And our room was small, clean and very comfortable (room number 1 with a window on the central platform and a balcony overlooking the mountains and cities below). In addition, the smell of wood with which it was trimmed was soon mixed with the smells of herbs, mushrooms and berries.
NATURE in these places simply fascinates with its peaceful breadth and some incomprehensible trust in people. For example, we managed to see a hare, which continued to sit a step away from us, when the grass was moved away from its muzzle in order to better examine it.
And lizards and grasshoppers just posed for me, not being afraid of flashes and clicking the camera. And what a beauty! I was especially struck by the sparkling night lights of Truskovets - there was a feeling that I was in the sky, and a constellation was burning under me. And add to this sounds and aromas that cannot be described in words ...
The friendliness and willingness to help the STAFF really caressed the soul. I have been traveling since childhood, but I have never met such a warm welcome anywhere, although trips, as a rule, left a pleasant impression. But here the reception is special: there are no tourists in the Carpathian meadows, only dear long-awaited guests. The tone, of course, is set by the owners. And the conversation might go something like this: “Do you want to go there and spend time in such and such a way? Perfectly! We haven't done it yet, but we'll be happy to organize it. " ( She herself heard a similar conversation between Igor and a vacationing family. ) Literally “Everything for you!
» By the way, during my visit to the hotel, the list of services there was sufficient not to use all of them, but it is interesting to spend time, and since then it has expanded, so it’s unlikely that anyone can get bored there (the full LIST of SERVICES can be viewed on the hotel’s website www. greentourism. com. ua). But if you, with all the variety of entertainment, want something special, I am sure that you will be given the opportunity to get this pleasure.
There is also entertainment FOR CHILDREN. On the territory there is a playground with a swing and a sandbox, a children's playroom is equipped in the cafe building, there is a small museum of rural life (interesting not only for children, of course), younger children were happy to draw and sculpt in pottery, and those who were older liked rope ladder and bungee. The cafe has chairs for very young guests.
Toddlers ride horses with their parents (the horse, of course, is led by the bridle); big children, if desired, drive themselves. And of course, all the children were not indifferent to the barnyard, where you can not only look at animals, but also feed them.
The quality of service in the hotel, in my opinion, is very high. I have never seen anything non-functioning, dilapidated or in need of repair. The cottages are kept in perfect order and cleanliness. It seems that every little thing is provided: a refrigerator, a hairdryer, automatic ventilation in the sanitary rooms, an electric kettle and saucer cups in the room, hammocks and barbecues, etc. , etc. Many things can also be rented for a moderate fee (from rubber boots to dryers for mushrooms), which for us personally significantly reduced the amount of things on the next trip. I have seen many hotels, but I have never met SUCH comfort, coziness and care for vacationers before.
Separate conversation - KITCHEN.
To say that they cook great is to say nothing! Delicious national dishes (two to choose from, ordered a day from the menu), and in addition - fragrant honey, home-made cottage cheese, a sip of good wine at dinner, and herbal tea and amazing pastries in the evening, and a bouquet of fresh flowers is always on the table. In the morning, you can order a glass of cow's or goat's milk. By the way, in the kitchen, tourists are met halfway: in my presence, they ordered dishes that are not on the menu several times. And they will always cook the mushrooms you have collected or the fish you have caught. The waitresses will definitely ask where you were today and how you liked it; the administrator (and during the meal he is always in the hall) will answer any questions and help solve the difficulties that have arisen. And in good weather, the tables will be taken out to the balcony, and in addition to excellent food and pleasant communication, you can also enjoy the magnificent scenery.
Those who linger on an excursion or a walk are always waiting for the waitress on duty with a hot dinner.
I think it is clear that I spent my next vacation there, in the Karpatsky Polonina. And a year later I gave birth to a son, and now I look forward to when the baby grows up and is ready for long-distance travels, so that the whole family can go to the Carpathians again.
P. S. A little advice for those wishing to visit this wonderful place: book a cottage in advance (1.5 months)! The aforementioned Oksana successfully fell into the off-season and managed to be the only guest for some time, but in 2009 I had to postpone my vacation dates, because the guest house was busy at the time I originally planned. Not once in two years have I heard from tourists: “It would be nice to come here someday”, but the phrase often sounded: “Next time we will come here in the winter (with friends, fishing, picking mushrooms, for the whole vacation and etc. etc.
)» By the way, on the second visit we met a couple of families with whom we had vacationed before, and many said that they had been here 2-5 times. Yes, and my friends visited the "Carpathian meadows" after my enthusiastic stories. So keep in mind the possible queue for the house you have chosen.
