wellness corner. The hosts will be happy to welcome each and every guest and to show<br />

them their farm. The cheese dairy facilities are located in an old farm building called marof;<br />

milled products are available to buy in the mill. The apartments for guests exude<br />

homeliness and hospitality. The surrounding area is famous for its numerous<br />
