  • 🌍 The Manor House, ul. Czachowskiego 56, 26-510 Chlewiska, ☏ +48 48 628-70-61. The Manor House, in nearby Chlewiska is a great option if you don't mind spending some significant money. However, for that price you will be staying in a world class resort which offers not only a hotel, but a great restaurant, spa, and local recreation such as horseback riding. Parts of the complex are approx 800 years old and renovated to be truly magnificent. Expensive for the region.
