One of the most ancient and famous Russian family - the family of the Count Sheremetyev, - searched through all Russia for a beautiful spot to build his estate. Finally he chose the territory of the settlement Yurino, and on the very bank of the Volga river he created a place of rest, which was later robbed by the revolutionaries during the calamity of 1917. Now the place is being revived again, and here we offer you to spend tree fabulous days in suites, the windows of which overlook the river, which is the symbol of Russia - the Volga, the most picturesque part of its flowage.

Travelling by boats around Yurino you'll enjoy typical Russian landscapes - small villages with cosy churches, vast fields, wild forests, abounding in animals. Don't be frightened, if a hare leaps up from under your feet!

We shall take care, that the bear, hiding behind the nearest tree, shouldn't do you any harm!

Besides relaxing on the Volga beaches and bathing in its calm waters, you will enjoy the rich folklore this place disposes of:

You will visit the community of old believers, enter their houses, watch their rituals, talk to them, ask questions.

Pagans also live in this place; you will participate in their rites, listen to their ritual songs, dance with them and partake their food.

Yurino is an ancient place, where old huge lime-trees are lined up to form long alleys and roads, along which it is so pleasant to ride in Russian troikas.
