Kernu Manor, Manor complex near artificial lake in Kernu, Estonia
Kernu Manor is a historic estate with hotel accommodations housed in a main building and adjoining structures beside an artificial lake in Estonia. The property comprises multiple buildings, including a restored stable wing that provides additional guest rooms alongside the main residence.
The estate was built between 1810 and 1813 under the direction of Bernhard Heinrich Conrad Ungern-Sternberg following architect Ludvig Engel's designs. It reflects the architectural traditions of that era which shaped many properties across the Baltic nobility.
The name comes from the family who first settled the land long ago. You can see how the rooms are decorated with classic details that reflect the way the local gentry once lived.
The property is easiest to reach by car since it sits in a remote location beside the lake. Book your stay ahead during the warmer months, and note that the on-site restaurant operates only on certain evenings.
An oak tree more than 200 years old stands in the manor park and has shaped the landscape for generations. Children can also meet and feed Boer goats on the grounds, adding an unexpected touch to the visit.
