Romantic stay in apple tree park - Vintage Gaz-63

Romance in a Vintage Military Truck Enjoy shared solitude in a very special accommodation – the Gazik parked in a marvellous apple orchard! Have you ever spent the night in a car? In an apple orchard? We offer a romantic opportunity to spend the night in a specially equipped truck in an apple orchard and enjoy an unforgettable and inspiring adventure with a touch of vintage. A higher-quality successor of the GAZ-51, the GAZ-63 4x4 truck (1964) was used as a military communication vehicle accommodating a team of three persons. It was built to traverse mud, steep slopes and a half-metre of snow. Today, this vehicle is awaiting adventure seekers willing to spend the night in the picturesque apple orchard "Ābeles un bites" (Apple Trees and Bees). Moreover, with heating and ventilation system installed, a comfortable and cosy overnight stay is guaranteed in all seasons. This cosy accommodation includes a big comfortable bed (1.60 x 2 m), a mini fridge, a renovated mini bench and a kitchen table that has already been in use here in the Soviet era. There is everything thought of for guests' comfort – electricity, speakers, drinking water, a kettle and fruit, disposable dishes, kitchenware and an opportunity to reheat food. Guests can enjoy tranquillity of the apple orchard, or have a leisurely dinner or breakfast on the adjacent patio. There is a BBQ grill, charcoal and a canopy that will protect them from adverse weather conditions. Toilet and shower cabin bathroom is located in the apple orchard. Guests also have access to a pond, volleyball and football fields 400 metres away and a bicycle rental. This unusual accommodation is located in Latvia's central part, Nākotne village, just 18 km from Jelgava and 65 km from Riga. Once an administrative centre of the innovative Soviet collective farm “Nākotne” (Future), today Nākotne village is a place that combines adventure with relaxation and industrialism with nature. While staying there, our guests are also welcome to enjoy other attractions in “Nākotnes parks” – to visit the exhibition of antiques and the “Time Machine” workshop, to view the collection of vintage motorcycles and mopeds, to immerse themselves into a magical world of helicopters in the maintenance centre and the Future Wings Airfield and to enjoy the organic and innovative products of “Milzu!” and “Dabas dots”.
