Livonian & Latvian homestead "Branki"
Livonian & Latvian Homestead "Stūrīši & Branki" offers guest accommodation in 4 houses owned by our family, quietly situated in the picturesque historic Livonian fishing village in Mazirbe, Kurzeme. Each house has a unique setting, history and style, varied types of rooms and amenities. We welcome you to get "back to basics", experience great food and hospitality in the middle of the countryside.
Breakfast is included in all bookings.
THE HOUSE:
The Household "Branki" has two, interconnected bedrooms over the entire 2nd floor of our historical family house, built in 1900's.
We have 1x double bed, 1x king bed and we can add as many single beds as needed. You will also have a small private kitchen, refrigerator, toilet, open-plan shower and a balcony. You will be living on the entire 2nd floor, which is accessible by one flight of stairs (private entrance from outside).
EXTRAS:
Children are welcome and we can arrange a crib.
A traditional firewood heated sauna (hot rocks and steam) is available for hire to all guests who stay at least 3 nights.
If we have free spaces, we are happy to take on guests who wish to stay for 1-2 nights. The price per night will be +30% more per person than detailed in the booking system.
The family of "Branki" also provides excursions, guided tours and information about the local points of interest. If ordered in advance, large groups can have a meal here - up to 160 people in the summer.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Igors
Family cook, designer, entrepreneur - I care about an authentic feel and taking care to add the right details and make our house a rare and unforgettable experience. I like to combine the best and the most interesting elements of various historical ages while retaining the traditions of Latvian and Livonian living. As a certified cook with over 25 years of experience in cooking for legions, restaurants and my family, I truly enjoy cooking in a proper countryside kitchen.
Why they chose this property
Mazirbe is a getaway from the world. Hardly any phone reception, no internet. Instead there are miles and miles of a green, fresh pine forest. You can go pick berries, mushrooms or just for long, healthy walks. If forests are not in your fancy, there is a white sandy beach! During summers and early autumn water gets warm enough for swimming. Usually you can have the beach almost to yourself - this remote location is far away from popular routes.
What makes this property unique
Rural location, with beauty and peace all around you. Come here if you truly want to get away, regain that easy feeling of a summer-house holiday and just enjoy the very fresh air, surprises, nature and food.
We rely on local farmers and their stock - all of our food is bought from great, hardworking people - supplying fresh meat, dairy products, locally-grown vegetables, individually crafted local foods (Sklandrausis, for example), berries, mushrooms and when the sea has the right conditions our village fishermen sell finger-licking good fresh fish.
