“Ūši” – a place where the sea, Livonian heritage and hospitality meet

On the northern edge of Kolka village, where waves from two seas meet and pine trees scent the air, lies the Ūši farmstead – a place with ancient roots and Livonian heritage. Here, at the very end of Kurzeme, travelers discover not only the majesty of the sea and the charm of Kolkasrags, but also the warm hospitality that makes this place so special.

In order to diversify services and become more accessible to hikers and cyclists, the project "Creation of a Hiking and Cycling Service" was implemented with the support of the European Agricultural Fund. As part of the project, which began in 2019, a holiday home was renovated, where special rooms and equipment were created – cabinets for drying clothes and shoes, laundry facilities, a sauna for relaxation, a shared dining room, and a bicycle storage room. These facilities are particularly important for nature enjoyers, allowing them to recharge their batteries after a long day and enjoy the peace and quiet by the sea. With the sea breeze behind the house, and guests can enjoy both bike rides and meals with the hosts. Something special in "Ūši" are traditional Livonian flavors - sklandrauši, bukstiņbiezputra and other traditional dishes, which can be tasted in tastings and master classes. Sklandrausis, which is made right here, has also been awarded the Guaranteed Traditional Speciality label, confirming its authenticity and cultural value.

The quality of the farm is confirmed by several significant awards – the Green Certificate, the Latvian Heritage Mark, and the Pedestrian-Friendly Certificate. For more than ten years, Ūši has proudly carried the Green Certificate, confirming its commitment to living and working in harmony with nature.

Every year, the farm participates in Slītere Travel Days, sharing its knowledge and traditions, as well as promoting both tourism opportunities and the Livonian culinary heritage. This is a story about a place that is at once home, history, taste, feeling, and nature.
