CASTLE BREAKFAST MENU

Locally sourced offer in the basket

Our main principles are to promote local producers, preserve the quality of our food and foster a positive attitude toward our environment. We share this with you, our valued guests, by offering a breakfast full of delicacies made with local ingredients and products:

Kunej Farm

The Kunej Farm is located in the heart of the Kozjansko Regional Park, in the immediate vicinity of the Podsreda Castle, with a history that dates back centuries. From their forebears, today’s owners have inherited the farm, as well as a dedication to farming and, most importantly, good and tried recipes for excellent meat and other homemade products.

At the Kunej Farm, the morning starts early. They lovingly prepare a delicious breakfast that awakens the taste buds and fills your heart. They believe that homemade bread should be available to everyone, which is why they have teamed up with the Resnik Bakery in Kozje, which prepares fresh bread for them every day.

The Kunej family swears by homemade, traditional products that awaken the taste of home. They share this passion with their local customers and those who come from far and wide to enjoy the homemade delicacies.

We are delighted to have found the perfect partner to prepare our CASTLE BREAKFAST BASKET at the Rooms and Apartments at Podsreda Castle in the Kunej family farm.

This way, our guests can enjoy a carefully prepared breakfast basket every day of their stay at the castle and be sure that every last delicacy has been prepared with a great deal of professionalism, care, and love.
