We were in the Góry Sowie (Owl Mountains) for the first time. We tried to book our accommodation quite late, and it turned out that it is difficult to find a room during the holiday weekend. There were a few rooms on offer, but we would have had to put up with a noisy party in the same place. It could be difficult not being at the party but only hearing the noise behind the wall.

When one door closes, another opens. We found a guesthouse called Mała Sowa (Small Owl) in Rzeczka. It was a success. We actively spent three days making use of the nearby attractions in the picturesque setting of Góry Sowie and rested in a friendly and clean guesthouse. Our first impression was excellent because this place pays attention to cleanliness and a nice-looking environment. Manicured grass, various plants, big barbecue area, fireplace, playground and ¬- best of all – calm, which we always need in a place like this.

The rooms and apartments are big, with enough space for baggage. They are arranged with great attention to detail: Old clocks, radios, huge old beds and wooden cupboards like in grandma's home make a nice and cosy impression.
Despite certain time constraints that go with ordering meals in the guesthouse, it is really worth going for this option. The assorted fresh and well-seasoned dishes, prepared by the lady of the house, looked and smelled so good we couldn't wait for the next dish. The portions are quite big because the hostellers say that nobody can be hungry here, so I recommend half portions for children. It is a waste not to eat everything on the plate. My son, who is a rather fussy guest, was enticed by the meatloaves in tomato sauce, homemade chicken noodle soup, huge pork chop, and pancakes for breakfast. The hostellers set the bar for other guesthouse owners very high.

A good spirit of this house is the host, who with a smile, goodwill and a kind heart endears himself to everybody. We recommend Mała Sowa as an excellent, friendly, clean and gorgeous place where you can rest in a picturesque environment and from where you are able to quickly and easily visit all the attractions of Sowie Góry.

I recommend it!
