New Year's Eve and Christmas in the countryside: the quiet option instead of a banquet hall
New Year's Eve without a hall, corkage or a taxi at four in the morning. What the turn of the year looks like in a cabin with a hot tub, the minimum stay, and when to book.
New Year's Eve in Poland usually looks the same: a hall, a ticket per couple, corkage, a menu decided for you, music louder than conversation and a taxi at four in the morning. For some people that is exactly the night they wait for all year. For the rest it is the most expensive evening of the year spent in the cloakroom queue.
This text is for the second group.
What a quiet New Year's Eve looks like
Two cabins on the whole grounds, 250 metres apart, separated by a wooden panel fence. The hot tub with jacuzzi and the Finnish sauna belong exclusively to your cabin, with no time limit and no reserving an hour.
At midnight you are either in the hot tub, or by the bonfire, or on the terrace with a glass. There is no DJ, no party games, no neighbour from the next table. It is cold, quiet, and you can see stars that do not exist in the city.
In the morning nobody wakes you and you do not have to get back anywhere.
What it costs
The turn of the year has its own rate: 800 zł per night for a cabin for 1 to 2 people, with a minimum of three nights. The extras are the same as for the rest of the year: 50 zł per night for the 3rd and 4th person, the hot tub and the Finnish sauna at 150 zł per day each, added for the days you choose, and cleaning at 150 zł once per stay. On a booked day you use the hot tub and sauna at any hour. Four people with the hot tub and sauna come to 1200 zł per night. Food is ordered separately.
New Year's Eve 2026 falls on a Thursday, so three nights means, for example, Tuesday 29 December to Friday 1 January, or Wednesday 30 December to Saturday 2 January.
| Option | Amount |
|---|---|
| 3 nights, 2 people, no hot tub or sauna | 2550 zł |
| 3 nights, 2 people, hot tub and sauna every day | 3450 zł |
| 4 nights, 2 people, hot tub and sauna every day | 4550 zł |
| 3 nights, 4 people, hot tub and sauna every day | 3750 zł |
| 3rd and 4th guest | 50 zł / pers. / night |
| Hot tub, Finnish sauna | 150 zł / day each |
| Cleaning, mandatory | 150 zł / stay |
| Lunch | 60 zł / pers. / night |
| Breakfast | 60 zł / pers. / night |
The amounts for the stays already include the one-off cleaning fee. The nightly rate covers the 4K outdoor cinema, board games and bathrobes, while the hot tub and sauna are added for the days you choose. For comparison: a ticket to a typical New Year's Eve in a hall for a couple is usually several hundred zloty for one evening, without accommodation.
One thing specific to the turn of the year: New Year's Eve, Christmas, Easter and long weekends are special dates here, where free cancellation runs until 14 days before arrival rather than the usual 7.
The minimum length of stay over the turn of the year is always 3 nights, whatever day of the week 31 December falls on.
How many nights to take
Three, because that is the minimum. It is just worth placing them well.
The turn of the year has this property that 1 January is a lost day for everyone. With three nights from 29 December you check out on 1 January at 11 am, on the day you would most like to do nothing.
With three nights from 30 December you spend 1 January on site: breakfast at two in the afternoon, the hot tub in the afternoon, an evening with no one else's plans. You go back only on 2 January.
Rada od Filipa
If you have to choose between better food and one night more, take the night. The New Year's morning spent here is what guests remember, not what was on the plate the evening before.
Food
We do not do a banquet and we have no menu card. We cook home-style, seasonally, from local produce, and we agree the menu individually before arrival. Lunch, meaning soup, a main course, dessert and a fruit drink, is 60 zł per person per night, breakfast the same. In the evening you can also arrange home-made snacks with us: pizza, baked baguettes, burgers or fries, all made here, nothing reheated or out of a packet, with the details and the price settled on the spot.
Important: you have to order in advance. We shop for specific bookings, so an order placed on arrival day is a few days too late. Over New Year's this matters especially, because the shops in the area work shorter hours then.
If you prefer to cook yourselves, the kitchenette is fully equipped and the gas grill stands outside. Just do the bigger shop on the way, because although the Dino is three minutes away, 31 December is not necessarily the moment to discover its opening hours.
A homemade liqueur from my dad, orangeade from Ciechocinek and a set of coffee, tea, yerba mate and matcha also wait in the cabin. A gift from the hosts, not a line in the price list.
About fireworks
We ask you to skip them, and we will say why instead of simply banning them.
We are in a village, near farm animals and wild ones. On top of that, dogs stay free here and plenty of them come, so the chance that a dog is sleeping in the other cabin is real. For a dog, fireworks are not an attraction, they are several hours of panic.
The silence at midnight is, after all, what you come here for. Hard to have it and shoot it apart at the same time.
Christmas
That is a separate category and a different kind of guest. New Year's Eve is booked by couples wanting to escape the party. Christmas is booked by those who want to escape cooking for twelve and the questions at the table.
It works well, because Christmas here has no script. There is no Christmas Eve dinner with a programme and no midnight mass organised by the host. There is a cabin, quiet, and whatever you bring or order yourselves.
Demand for Christmas is smaller than for New Year's Eve, so availability can be better, but we are still talking about two cabins.
When to book
New Year's Eve vanishes from the calendar first of all the dates in the year. Three to four months ahead is a sensible margin, and with two cabins it is no exaggeration.
If you are reading this in December and looking for a date right now: check the calendar anyway, because bookings do get cancelled.
Booking means a 25 percent deposit online via PayNow, the rest settled on site. We guarantee the lowest price on our own website.
Who this will not be a good idea for
If New Year's Eve means dancing until morning, a crowd and partying until dawn, you will be bored. There is no music here, no people and nothing to tick off.
If you are looking for a place for a big crew, it is possible, but under the whole-grounds rules, up to 8 people overnight, with individual pricing. Details on the events page.
If, however, the thought of another New Year's Eve in a hall tires you out already in November, this is exactly the alternative.

Najczęstsze pytania
When should we book New Year's Eve?
Earliest of all the dates in the year. We have two cabins, so the turn of the year usually vanishes from the calendar first. Three to four months ahead is a sensible margin.
Is there a higher rate on New Year's Eve?
Yes. Over the turn of the year the rate is 800 zł per night for a cabin for 1 to 2 people, with a minimum of three nights. The usual extras apply: 50 zł per night for the 3rd and 4th person, the hot tub and the Finnish sauna at 150 zł per day each for the days you choose, and cleaning at 150 zł once per stay. On a booked day you use the hot tub and sauna at any hour. Food is ordered separately.
What is the minimum stay for New Year's Eve?
Three. Over the turn of the year the minimum stay is always 3 nights, whatever day of the week 31 December falls on.
Do you organise a New Year's Eve dinner?
Not as a banquet. We cook home-style; lunch is 60 zł per person per night and we agree the menu individually before arrival. It has to be ordered in advance.
Can a bigger group come for New Year's Eve?
Yes, but group trips mean renting the whole grounds, meaning both cabins, up to 8 people overnight. Pricing is individual, so write to us instead of booking through the calendar.
Can we set off fireworks?
We ask you not to. We are in a village, near animals, and a good share of our guests come with dogs, for whom it is simply cruel.
What to do on New Year's morning?
Nothing, and that is the correct answer. Breakfast at a time you choose yourselves, the hot tub during the day, and departure only the next day, if you arrive on 30 or 31 December.
Check available dates
