Gungas is a collection of 6 traditional Latvian old log houses and a sauna set in the woods beside a lake only 25km from the centre of Latvia’s beautiful varietal city, Riga. Each house was brought there piece by piece from around Latvia, although old they are modern and comfortable inside. To take advantage of the lake for recreation or fishing they provide 2 rowing boats and 2 Canadian type canoes. There is a pontoon with a swim ladder making a swim in the lake an easy pleasure. The Latvian sauna is a treat as is the wood fired hot tub. It is a peaceful romantic getaway for a couple or fantastic for a family holiday. The houses are well spaced which allows plenty of privacy. I understand they also arrange traditional Latvian wedding rituals which must be wonderful. Although

peacefully set in the woods in country beside a beautiful lake it is only a short trip to enjoy the beauty of Riga. Latvia is a largely undiscovered gem and deserves a visit and is a refreshing change from the crowds of the med and Southern Europe.
