Our guesthouse is located in the Keszthely Hills, on the half way between Keszthely (Balaton lake) , Hévìz (thermal lake) and Sümeg (medieval fortress), 18 km from Balaton lake, at the west end of the Upper Balaton National Park, in Vindornyalak, a traditional village with 76 inhabitants.

Its name (Fekete Kutya means Black Dog) was inspired by our dogs, Fuego and Nabu, the two adopted, one and a half and three years old (January 2020), black mixed breed neutered males, whom we love as family members. Our guesthouse is dog friendly.

We are Hungarian and French people who came from urban life to realize and have that surroundings what we could imaging as a perfect. We enjoy magical and inspirational nature, animals and country-side people near us, we have all comforts, energy comes from the "zen vibe" stupa, we can meditate and create, art smells in the air.

We encourage to stay for all countryside-rustic lovers, trippers-trekkers-hikers, bikers, zen-calm-silence seekers, transit travelers, art lovers, dog admirers, and also those who would like only chatting near a cup of coffee or tea.

Within 25 km, there are tourist attractions in all directions, including hiking trails, wildlife, thermal baths and the Balaton lake beaches, medieval castles, adventure parks, horseback riding and local wines.

When we renovated our chic farmhouse, we thought of saving and 'reusing' also the basalt stone barn. The building is located behind our main house. We have been mindful of ensuring that our guests have a comfortable stay while retaining traditional elements. We left the stone wall covered inside and reinforced the roof structure with a new peasant ceiling seen from the inside. New sewing system, tubes, tiles, cables, furnitures, equipments, machines... only some furniture pieces are old for giving rustic feelings, ambiance.

The guesthouse is so new that there is still a few things to do in the garden, but it is developing nicely. On the half-hectare area, the old well has yet to be renovated, the big basalt stones must be used for various things, more fruit trees should be planted and the terrace will be covered by roof soon.
