A honey garden just for you. The place is located in the picturesque village of Slatina nad Úpou with a slope to the wooded valley through which the river Úpa flows. The garden has fruit trees and lime trees. Breakfast can be enjoyed with the singing of birds. It is equipped with a fireplace with seating and a garden bench with a table. There is wood by the fireplace and a fork hidden under the bench for roasting. On the very other side of the property behind the creek is a larger covered wooden beehive.

Private tours of our apiary are available with me as the beekeeper. You will also have the opportunity to see the small honey house with the equipment used to extract the honey and what is needed to keep bees. In a nutshell, you will see what beekeeping entails and that it is not a completely simple job. Of course there is the possibility of tasting and buying flower and possibly forest honey from the yard. If we still have some, don't miss the tasting of our delicious mead, to which you are cordially invited.

We have been keeping bees for more than 35 years. We hold Saturday all day beekeeping classes in May https://www.vcelarskekurzy.cz and there are more vehicles on the property these days so the property may be unavailable. Personal beekeeping website: https://vcelar.miloslavholas.cz

The bees work from early morning to evening, busily carrying pollen and nectar to their dwelling. It is advisable not to linger in areas of bee flight activity and outside the apiary (especially when it is sultry), there is the possibility of being stung. But mostly no problem, right in the place we live. A proper stingless bee has fenistil-gel ;)

Book the place when you can ideally the day before, so we can get everything perfectly set up. Thank you.

For the first trip we suggest nearby Ratibořice with the new Red Bridge over the river Úpa or Havlovice with the ruins of Vízmburk Castle.

We look forward to seeing you.

IMPORTANT: the garden is reached BEFORE the exit from the main road. Therefore, DO NOT turn into the side road anywhere in the village - there is a very narrow place above our house - you cannot easily back out.

7.9 - 8.9.2024 Adriana říká:
Very nice land, beautifully landscaped and mowed by the owner before our arrival. On the plot garden table with benches and fireplace, electricity. The owner had a map ready for us with all the information about the surroundings and he is a beekeeper, so he explained and showed us everything, we brought home delicious mead:) The bees live on the other side of the property and we didn't even know about them. The land is hidden under the main road and is not fenced, so we had to watch the dog a bit, we were unlucky that there was a detour, so there was quite a lot of traffic, but it certainly didn't spoil our impression and we had a great time!:)

26.8 - 28.8.2024 Nora říká:
Beautiful property with apple trees and bee hives. The owner was very helpful with information and a map of the surrounding area,which is interesting to visit.He also showed us how he takes care of the bees and makes honey.The bees didn't bother us at all and the fire pit with wood was great.We would definitely recommend it.

24.5 - 26.5.2024 Pavel říká:
Beautiful place with facilities. The pluses according to our taste are as follows. Mr. owner cool, takes care, but does not impose. You are on your own at the place but not secluded. Seating, fire pit and utility or drinking water available. On arrival you learn what you can and not immediately what you can not. As an added bonus, you can get pro honey and pro mead. And the possibilities for hiking in the area probably need no mention! Recommended!

12.4 - 14.4.2024 Martin říká:
Beautiful place, possibility of great trips around the area, nice owner. We learned a lot of interesting information about bees, bought excellent honey. We will definitely come back.

14.4 - 15.4.2024 Ján říká:
The accommodation was very pleasant with the landlord there was seamless communication and he was very helpful. The garden is close to the local road so a few cars passed by, we didn't take this as a minus but it is something to be reckoned with. The landlord sold us honey straight away and showed us the bee hives which was nice :).
