The hostess will make breakfast, lunch and dinner if agreed in advance. The menu can be made for the guest's needs.  Dishes are mostly made from home-grown vegetables, fruits and herbs. We also offer home-baked bread and homemade tea and syrups.  

In collaboration with our partners from Plateliai, we made 2 herb mixes: one for winter and one for summer for you to enjoy or bring as a scrivener. Our partners are the first in Lithuania to be certified as a biodynamic farm. Together we created warming and cooling herb mixes. You can purchase it for yourself or as a great gift to your family. 

There also are a couple of restaurants in Karkle. "Žvejo sodyba" 200m from us and "Olando kepurė" 1km away. 

We invite you to experience sound in meditation with the Tibetan bowls. In the warm season, the sounds of the bowls are joined by the sounds of seaside nature: birdsong, the sound of the sea, the wind rustling the trees. The aim of sound meditation is complete relaxation of body and mind.

This experience is suitable for everyone, whether you are a daily practitioner, wanting to take the first step or just want to feel a deep sense of relaxation.

What is a Tibetan sounding bowl?

It is a powerful meditation tool. The bowls are made from a unique metal alloy consisting of seven to twelve different metals. The home of the bowls is the Himalayas (Tibet, Nepal, Northern India).

The meditation is led by Dawn Mendel:

Reiki practitioner, founder and owner of the Karkelbeck No 409 Wellbeing Farm, who has been talking to bowls for more than 10 years, and who organises sound therapies in groups, in the family or individually.

The aim of meditation is to relax the physical, emotional and other subtle bodies.

The meditation takes place lying on the floor. On arrival you will find a yoga mat, a cushion and a blanket. You are welcome to stay for a cup of tea after the meditation.

We invite you to experience sound in a group setting. During the cold season, meditations take place on Sunday evenings. During the summer, we invite you to experience sound in a group every Sunday morning and evening and on Wednesday evenings. By prior arrangement, you can experience the sound privately with your family, friends or colleagues.

We invite you to experience Lithuania through flavours straight from nature. "Tasting Lithuania" is a tasting of blossom or leaf teas and berry or bud syrups with homemade bread. All herbs, berries and syrups are collected and prepared in our homestead 

 Families, groups of friends or like-minded people are welcome to enjoy the tasting of teas and syrups. The perfect plan for the cold season: a walk by the seaside and a warming tasting of teas and syrups.

We invite you to spend your holidays actively! Enjoy the seaside, the gentle breeze and the views as they pass by.

Our friends at Wind bike tours will rent you a bike. You can go on an adventure with the little ones in your family - the children. Call the number below to reserve your bikes for your adventure.

We recommend that you reserve your bikes at least two days before your planned date. Our partners will deliver the bikes directly to our farmhouse for your convenience.

‘Search the forest’

We invite you to experience together your connection with trees and nature. This is an experiential walk in the forest where we discover new (or remember existing) connections between nature and human beings - you.

Groups of like-minded people and friends are welcome to experience the forest. The most comfortable walks are in groups of up to 20 people.

‘Feel the water’

We invite you to exercise and meditate on the seashore and, for the most adventurous, to swim in the sea. Even in winter!

This is a simple, but not common way to experience the water. Exercise, especially meditation and swimming, is a great way to stop, breathe and feel the water element with your whole body.

Groups of like-minded people and friends are welcome to experience the water. Groups of up to 15 people are most comfortable. If winter swimming doesn't appeal to you, perhaps it's time to start thinking about your summer plans...?

‘Feel the power of warm amber’

Warmed Baltic amber radiates its healing power directly into the body while lying down. The release of tensions is enhanced by the sound wave massage of Tibetan bowls placed on the body. In the warm season, the sounds of the bowls are joined by the sounds of seaside nature: birdsong, the sound of the sea, the wind rustling the trees.

Warmed amber is particularly effective in boosting the immune system, and has a positive effect on the digestive system and the locomotor and support system.

This exclusive therapy is only available in private, for one or two people. The time for a private session must be arranged in advance.

The farmhouse offers massages and other body therapies to help you relax from the tensions in your body, mind and emotions caused by everyday life. We appreciate slow holidays, where you can have a good rest and enjoy the peace and quiet.

Are the values and ideas of our homestead close to your way of thinking? We invite you to plan your event at our homestead!

You can rent the whole farmhouse with the residential buildings or just the educational pavilion for your event. For a few hours, for a weekend or even for a whole week. All events are subject to quiet hours from 23.00 to 07.00.

The vegetarian café on the grounds can take care of your participants' satiety. We always agree the menu in advance.

If necessary and desired, a sauna on wheels can be booked for your event (to be agreed in advance).
