Discover the exceptional atmosphere of country style!

Fairies once lived on Rye Island, the largest river island in all of Europe. The island, proud of its exceptional fauna, is also enriched today by golden yellow sunflowers, abundant waters and lush pastures. The Golden Garden, as Rye Island is often called, is home to fairies, or Kukkonia, and is the sunniest and most productive region of Slovakia. Out of respect for our ancestors and their love for nature, the Kukkonia FARMHOUSE project was born in Orechová Potôn, where now an ancient fairytale world full of secrets has been revived.

This is our dream self-sufficient farm, where the relationship between nature and people is of key importance. The delicious Rye Island cuisine is part of our cultural heritage and was our motivation to remaster farming skills. We learned how to produce the finest local ingredients ourselves and the food on the plate here is a gift from nature.

The old name of Great Rye Island comes from the time of the Mongol invasions. During the emergency period were residents of the swampy and marshy area of Great Rye Island trying to save their lives in the swampland unknown to foreigners. To inform others about their wellbeing they imitated the voice of the oriental fire-bellied toad (kukk-ko), a frog living in the region. Based on that, the founders of Kukkonia turned their focus to this old name.
