🏠 About the Host: The Story of Golavškov Mill "👋 Hi, I’m Matic! My connection to Golavškov Mill is deeply personal. Over 100 years ago, this mill belonged to my family, but it was later sold and eventually fell into total ruin. Five years ago, I decided to bring the story back home. My family and I bought the ruins of our ancestral mill and spent the last five years lovingly restoring it from the ground up. Today, what was once a collapsing building is a sustainable, eco-friendly retreat that honors its past while embracing the future. I am passionate about eco-conscious living, which is why we’ve equipped the mill with solar energy and rainwater systems. For me, hosting is about more than just a bed—it’s about sharing the rebirth of this special place and the peaceful rhythm of life by the stream. I look forward to welcoming you to our family’s legacy and helping you discover the beauty of our local area. Welcome home!"
