Usadba Derevenskij Raj Guest House

We had a peaceful few days here as a family of six, with two adults and four children. The house was incredibly cozy, and the hostess was so hospitable. Breakfast was included, and we could order lunch and dinner too. Having our own sauna and hot tub made the stay even more relaxing. I highly recommend it if you want a wonderful vacation. Wishing the hosts lots of success and prosperity, and I definitely want to come back!

We came in the fall and found the quiet break we wanted, with lovely forest air and none of the hustle and bustle. The staff welcomed us warmly and were polite and smiling. The grounds and house feel thought through down to the smallest details, even pet bowls in the yard. Special thanks to the owner of the estate for letting us bring our dog. There’s plenty for a family stay: gated grounds, a pool, swings, and a sauna. The cozy house has a TV, internet, and all the necessary appliances. Outside, the birds and fresh air were stunning. Breakfasts were delicious, and the Pushcha herbal tea is incredible. I love coffee, but that tea is a must try. This was our second time choosing it for breakfast. We were delighted to buy homemade jam, lovingly made from pears by the owner of the estate personally, and hazelnuts. We’ve still had a supply of tea since summer 😉. It’s a magical place I always want to return to. If you’re still thinking about it, just go.

The green grounds are well maintained, and the location is good. The place has what you need for a relaxing holiday, right down to a dishwasher, and the pool is heated. The breakfasts were poor, though they may suit some people. The covered gazebo was dirty, the grilling equipment even dirtier, and the trash cans were dirty too. There were also service oversights: one bed had no linens, the toothbrush holder was dirty, there was dust in the cabin, and the bathroom dispensers had no soap.

It’s warm and very cozy here, right next to Belovezhskaya Pushcha. I’d happily come back.
