He will welcome you to the house and help you during your stay with any arrangements you want to make (a modest fee may be payable if your requirements are particularly time-consuming. If this is the case he will tell you in advance). We provide factsheets about the village, cycle routes, and our favourite restaurants in nearby towns. The traditional design of the house means it stays relatively cool in summer and retains heat in winter. Heating when required (usually November to April) is by a traditional wood-fired Peć (Kachelofen) in the main house, a wood-fired stove in the kitchen, and electric storage heating in the bedrooms. Firewood is provided. Guests have to light and manage the fires themselves. It will take about 30 minutes a day which we hope you will consider a positive part of your Stara Moravica experience, but if you are not prepared to manage your own fires, please do not book to stay in the winter months because you will be cold.
