Villa Margaretha is a meeting place with a romantic atmosphere which is a little mysterious and implores you to return again and again. Creaky wooden staircases and banging doors are a thing of the past in guesthouses – nothing is likely to wake you here! Restored to its former glory, the guesthouse is an attraction in its own right in the city of Tartu. Of course, there is more to admire than just its facade - there is its dignified interior, including a restaurant and cafe. Villa Margaretha is the gateway to the suburb of Karlova and its traditional wooden architecture.

Kallaste, located in southern Estonia, has been a well-known fishing town for decades, and one of the largest fish farms on Estonia's largest lake, Lake Peipsi, is located here. Lake Peipsi is one of the most fish-rich lakes in Europe, and we sell and process fish caught directly from the lake. The shop has a large selection of smoked and frozen fish and fish products guaranteed to make your mouth water. The selection includes perch fillet slices in red marinade, hot-smoked bream in oil, and tšugudai made from raw cod fillet marinated in vinegar and onion. Rannapuura Fish Shop also offers fresh fish, depending on the season!
In winter, when Lake Peipsi is frozen, the Mesi Tare family offers guests a real adventure holiday — a winter day on Lake Peipsi! The host takes the group out onto the lake ice in a karakat (a vehicle specially built for driving on ice), teaches them how to fish, and catches fish from an ice hole with the group. The fish that are caught are used to make a delicious soup in a pot set up on the lake ice. After a 3-hour karakat safari and ice fishing, a heated tent sauna awaits on shore, where you can warm up your body and then cool off in an ice hole! Enjoy an authentic Lake Peipsi experience with your family, children, and pets!
