About us

We are a British-Slovak couple who have been renovating an old stone farmhouse in a remote part of the Slovak countryside since 2011.Whilst maintaining our previous work interests in photography and textiles, these days you are more likely to find us up a ladder repairing the cob walls of the cottage, weeding plots in the vegetable garden or cooking up homemade jams, chutneys and wines.
The previous occupants still live here at Havran Cottage, that's Maco and Harik our two dogs. The family has now increased with Mici the cat and her two offspring, Yabu and AJ. 
We are all a happy bunch who look after one another and what surrounds us. We take great care of what is grown here. There is an abundance of fruit trees to deal with, as well as walnuts and that's before you get to the extensive vegetable patch. 
What we enjoy most is to welcome and host new people and old friends at Havran Cottage. To enjoy conversation and laughter but also to offer any assistance to making sure your holiday in Slovakia is filled with pleasant memories and new friendships.
