To break away from your routine and feel revitalized on holiday, you can’t go wrong with a forest retreat in Poland. 30% of the country is covered in woodland and its Białowieża Forest is one of the last remnants of the primeval forest that once spanned the European Plain. For a divine few days spent in nature, head to any of these Polish forest hideaways.
Apartamenty Carskie
Stay within a restored railway station that was built for Tsar Nicholas II in 1903
Stay within a restored railway station that was built for Tsar Nicholas II in 1903
In the middle of the Białowieża Forest – the last remaining part of lowland Europe’s primeval forest – Apartamenty Carskie offers accommodation within a restored railway station that was built for Tsar Nicholas II in 1903. Upon entering the mustard- and green-painted wooden main building, you’ll notice the decor appears untouched since the late 19th century; from claret-coloured brocade wallpaper and deep green walls studded with mounted antlers, to immaculate period furniture and silver candelabras. There’s a selection of suites and apartments available, including one in a historic water tower and several in renovated, luxurious railway carriages. Wake up to the distant roaring of European bison and moose roaming the surrounding woodland, before taking a guide to explore the ancient forest. Then come home to try out the traditional ‘Ruska Bania’ (Russian sauna), and to enjoy a meal of regional Polish-Russian cuisine prepared with considerable flair (and using locally-sourced ingredients) at the hotel’s restaurant. Alternatively, the staff can organise an outdoor feast for you of roasted wild boar, eaten while sitting around a fire accompanied by live music.
Świronek
You may find bison grazing close to your wooden cabin at Świronek
For a peaceful rural escape, book a small wooden cabin at Świronek. The property stands in a meadow bordered by pine trees that’s just a short walk from the Białowieża Forest, with bison often grazing close by. If you’re visiting in summer, spend your days hiking or lounging in the hammock and your evenings having al fresco barbecue dinners on your private terrace. In winter, cuddle up in a fur throw and watch a film while the snow piles up outside.
Maciejewka is a wooden lodge perched on the southernmost tip of Poland, an hour’s drive from the mountainous Bieszczadzki Park Narodowy – although the immediate surroundings provide enough natural beauty that you won’t feel the need to venture far. In summer, hanging flower baskets blossom on the verandah, where you’ll tuck into generous breakfast spreads to fuel you for a day of hiking. But winter stays are equally special, with icicles dripping from the verandah’s wooden rafters and an interior that couldn’t be cosier – think wood-panelled walls and ceiling beams, pea green rocking chairs and an enormous old stone fireplace.
