Henye Vintage Home a Káli-medencében Balatonhenye

In Balatonhenye, a nicely renovated, two-storey, large farmhouse with a garden is for rent. We provide comfortable accommodation for 8 people in 3 bedrooms, +2 more people can sleep in the living room. Balatonhenye is the last really untouched village in the Káli Basin in a quiet valley surrounded by forests. The beaches of the lake BALATON can be reached by car in 10 minutes. To buy food or if you look for a restaurant you should go into the neighboring village, Köveskál (4 km). The house is ideal for rest and vacation. Balatonhenye's willow-shaded creek bank at one end of the village and the surrounding hills offer an exciting playground for children and an eye-catching sight and romantic atmosphere for adults. The asphalt road ends in Balatonhenye, so there is almost no car traffic in this peaceful small village.

We offer the whole house for rent, so you don’t have to share with other guests either inside the building or in the garden. A total of about 170 m2 awaits our guests on two levels. The living room is 30 m2, so the company can comfortably spend time together here or in the garden. The garden with a stone fence in the local style provides a sheltered playground for children and pets alike (Pets are only welcome outside the building!).
Much of the building received a major renovation in 2021.
The house is located in an authentic village atmosphere with floral and forest scents, dawn mist ... and maybe wild boars and deers (if you are so lucky).
We spent many beautiful summers in the house as a family, beautified it over the years for ourselves, so it developed almost organically so this can certainly be discovered in its style even today. During the renovation, we also found bricks from 1884, so a building at least 140 years old welcomes our guests who want to relax. Our house awaits with an almost untouched forest environment dotted with vineyards and pastures. A romantic, lovable place to relax. At one end of the village, a small creek is shaded by old willow trees, giving an unforgettable atmosphere.

And what is the Kali Basin? A handful of small villages surrounded by ancient volcanoes, church towers, stone desert, endless views from Csobánc Castle ... and of course the beaches of the nearby Lake Balaton.

Nearby excursion destinations: Badacsony (a most well-known volcanic hill with vineyards, wineries and an amazingly beautiful view from teh top), the Kapolcs forest and Kapolcs village itself (home of summer-autumn festivals), the Hegyestű geology demonstration park and lookout, Salföld and its zoo (with domestic animals and possibility for horse riding), the nationally known Liliomkert Organic Food Market in Káptalantóti on every Saturday, the "stone sea" neighboring to Szentbékálla, the Csobánc hill with its castle ruins, and up on these curiosities the whole Káli Basin can be visited from village to village by bike very easily (bikes can be hired at more places)

But the area is not just for excursions. The volcanic hillsides of the Káli Basin are also popular for their gastronomic and wine culture what you may taste in small wineries and restaurants. (Our favorite and recommended place is the Kőróka winery in Mindszentkálla, where the wine is accompanied by first-class snacks.)

The Kali Basin is considered by many people to be a spiritual place, the positive, healing energies surround the visitors there which helps to recharge and relax. Come and taste it yourself.
