Are you looking for a quiet place to relax, where comfort is combined with a friendly approach to nature? Sitting in the draw offers an exceptional combination of sustainable lifestyle and relaxation in a landscape that both soothes and inspires. Enjoy breathtaking views through large windows and a simple yet comfortable interior designed with respect for the planet. The entire building was built with ecological principles in mind. We use renewable energy sources, natural and exclusively plant-based materials and try to be as minimally invasive as possible to our surroundings. The seating fits naturally into the surrounding environment and is fully self-sufficient.
Our seating is not just about the experience. It is about thinking, trying, sharing and discovering new ways to live with more respect for nature. Come and relax, learn something new and find the strength to make your own changes. Because every change starts with an experience.

equipment
toilet - There is a full separating compostable toilet in a separate sitting room.
drinking water - Filtered water will be waiting in the fridge on arrival. You will also have drinking running water from the storage tanks under the sink, additional water in spare jerry cans and a glass jug. Water bags are also included so you can walk to St. Vojtech Chapel, less than a mile away, for exceptional spring water. You will also have a filter kettle just in case.
electricity - The electricity is generated by photovoltaic panels on the roof of the seat and stored in a 1024 Wh battery storage system. As a last resort, we also have a second identical portable battery storage that we can provide you with promptly. In addition, two fully charged power banks and two charged flashlights are available in the seat. In both cases, of course, in a sustainable bamboo coat...
shower / washroom - It is in the area of hygiene that you will feel the greatest lack of comfort in our seating area. To brush your teeth and wash your hands or face, you can use the sink with running cold water from small tanks directly inside. For washing the whole body, there is a lavatory in which you can heat water on a gas stove or in a kettle and wash yourself outside the sitting area. In the warmer months there are also two portable outdoor solar showers made from discarded army stores, each with a capacity of 20 litres. Another option is to refresh in the nearby ponds or the beautiful flooded quarries at Defur Lažany. In the winter, a visit to the aquapark in Horažďovice is offered.
picnic table
grill
the property isn't suitable for a winter stay
Wastewater disposal
Greywater (shower, washing) - It is possible to pour out grey water in the vicinity of the sitting area practically without any restrictions, because in the sitting area of the V draw you will find only 100% natural and biodegradable products for washing dishes and cleaning. We only ask that you pour the grey water in different places and rather far away from the seating area.
Accessibility
The property is accessible even in winter / in the snow season
The property is easy to access even in bad weather

Since vehicles are not allowed to drive directly to the sitting area and parking is available at the owners' property in nearby Nová Ves, where a regular paved road of the third class leads, you can usually get to us without any problems.

activities
cycling

There are countless possibilities for cycling trips within the near and farther surroundings on cycle paths, unpaved roads and on really very little frequented roads.

winter sports

The nearest downhill skiing opportunities are in Velhartice (40 km) and in the Kašperské Hory Ski Resort (46 km). You can also go to the Zadov Ski Resort (57 km), Železná Ruda (60 km) or even Velký Javor in Germany (75 km). Cross-country skis can usually be put on right under the chair, and the best place for bobsledding is the slope in the castle park in nearby Chanovice.

water sports

The nearest pond, where you can swim most of the year, is the pond Předota, which is 333 m away from the village as the crow flies. However, just over 2.5 km away are two former granite quarries, of which the closer one, the flooded quarry of Defur Lažany I, is very popular for bathing because of its clean cold water, good accessibility and romantic setting.

activities for kids

Children are best served by unspoilt nature, but there are also plenty of activities for the little ones in the area. The nearest one is in nearby Chanovice, which is about 2.5 kilometres from the sitting area through the forest. Chanovice is a truly exceptional village with extremely enterprising and culturally-minded inhabitants (village conservation area, open-air museum, chateau, folk crafts, concerts, theatre performances, etc.). Moreover, the portal Kudy z boredy recently selected it as the most beautiful village of the Pilsen Region. From more distant destinations, do not miss a visit to the Blatná Chateau, where tame fallow deer roam freely in the park and the old owners, the Hildprandt family, tirelessly organize one interesting event after another, including those for children.

hiking

A large number of hiking trails with very interesting destinations. In any case, immediately next to the observation deck there is the nature trail "Through the Hradiště Stream" with a total length of 25 km, behind the hills you will come across the circular nature trail "Nature and forests of the Pošumaví region" in Chanovice, which is really extremely attractive with a length of about 2 km, because it takes you from the Chanovice castle through the English chateau park to the Žižkov Stone and through the surrounding forests to the Chlum lookout tower and the Chanovice open-air museum, which is officially one of the 10 most important open-air museums in the Czech Republic, and a little further on there is another nature trail "Around the Kadovský Viklan", which we would recommend you to visit as part of a day trip or a cycling trip, because it is located, from the point of view of the sitting, in the furthest part of the nature trail "Through the Hradiště Stream" and actually copies it.

sauna/wellness

Saunování si můžete užít nejblíže v Aquaparku v Horažďovicích (13 km).

Other activities

A private summer cinema with a projection on a 265 x 149 cm screen can be set up right in front of the seating area. There are springs with healing water (e.g. the spring at the Chapel of St. Vojtěch) or beautiful viewpoints a short walk from the seating area. There are excellent conditions for mushroom picking in the surroundings.

In Nová Ves you can arrange horse riding (Zuana Pavlová - Horses naturally) or attend individual and group therapies, seminars and meetings (Vlaďka Vachuška and Martin Vachuška). Over the hill you can visit the cider house in Újezd u Chanovic and taste the Divoké jablko cider, or arrange in advance with Aduša for ceramics courses.

Especially in the more distant surroundings of the estate you can do water sports (e.g. Wake park Hnačov at Hnačov pond) or explore nearby towns and cities - Kasejovice, Lnáře, Blatná, Nepomuk, Horažďovice, Klatovy and others. There is really a lot to do.

rules

Due to the natural character of the habitat, fire lighting and any manipulation with open flames is prohibited at our sitting area. It is also forbidden to use your own cleaning, chemical and hygiene products.

From toilet paper and paper kitchen towels (made from unbleached recycled paper), to soaps (100% natural, self-made), dishwashing products (100% biodegradable), to natural non-toxic repellent, everything will be available to you in our sitting area, free of charge of course.

Hunting, fishing and all other activities aimed at killing, maiming or any other suppression of animal rights are forbidden in and around our sanctuary. Your pets, on the other hand, are welcome at no extra charge. Our homestay is run with the utmost attention to ecology - it uses renewable energy, features sustainable, ethical, local and exclusively vegan amenities, and strives to be fully integrated into the surrounding environment. We therefore ask our guests to be respectful of the seating area, its unique amenities and the surrounding landscape. We strive to keep the impact of the sit on the adjacent nature to a minimum, ideally none. Thank you in advance for your consideration and understanding.
