Old Tree Villa & Restaurant

I booked the hotel for a week in Poland as a base for us to explore the local area and I booked based on reviews and price in the area. Arrived quite late, around 2130 but was given a friendly greeting and a key to a room on the 1st floor. Our baggage had not arrived at the airport and the staff were great at letting us know where we could find a few essentials at that time of night. The hotel looks quite new and the room reflected this, modern furniture, enough to place away your belongings at the very least, air con, a big TV and the usual for making tea/coffee etc. the bathroom was surprisingly small but I’m not complaining, it had everything you need including a hair dryer and a good strong shower. (No bath, not that this bothers me). I was surprised to see a good sized balcony the next day which includes chairs and a small table. The restaurant is accessible from outside or inside and is just a moments walk. Ample car parking available and the place is maybe a mile and a half walk from the train station. That said taxis are cheap and available at reception. One taxi charged us 13zlotys another 17. Hardly expensive. If you’re driving and in particular not used to driving on the right, like me, the end of the lane turning left toward town is a little challenging! As is finding the end of the lane coming off the main road (it’s not well marked), basically it’s next to the bright yellow wall. Generally by the time you have seen the wall you have driven past it :) The restaurant has a good, diverse menu and I recommend you work your way through it but on a personal note, you really, REALLY need to try the potato fritters. The portions are large and the food is tasty and filling. Breakfast is a good continental mix of meats, hot and cold, eggs, cheeses, bread, cereal and much more. You won’t go hungry here, trust me. And on a side note, cake and a disposable cups are available for those who need to ‘take breakfast out’. I truly cannot fault the team here. The staff were attentive and helpful at all times regardless of what questions you asked them. Were I ever to visit Poland again, I wouldn’t hesitate to come and stay here. I hope you enjoy it as much as we did.
