Estonia Eastern Europe: A journey that starts at the Viking age when this magical manor was still a dream come true and the Vikings inhabited the land where it now stands. Throughout the years a smaller residential building grew to the manor we see now.

Gerhardus de Kouwe, a vassal of the Danish King, was the first owner of the manor in the 13th century. Since then the manor served as a home to several noble men such as the world-famous explorer Otto von Kotzebue who lived here for several years in between his traveling in the 18th century.

The main house and service houses next to it were carefully restored from top to bottom to serve as a small boutique hotel. At the moment, there are 20 rooms together and the possibility to build more. The Kau manor features multiple awards, most notably the Best Designer Hotel award in 2016, being the first and also the only Estonian hotel receiving this honor.

The listing includes the beautiful 1597 m2 main house boasting 6 fireplaces and 11 unique guest rooms with attached bathrooms.

The 585 m2 coach house adjacent to the main building offers 9 more rooms, 73 m2 of balconies, a small spa with an indoor pool, and yoga/workshop areas for guests.

A 385 m2 stable house in the manor park acts as a perfect spot for bigger events and celebrations. The charming 42 m2 garden pavilion is located next to a pond and is inviting for more special gatherings during warmer seasons. The property offers over 15 hectares of land to put in use with different opportunities and old buildings still waiting to be transformed to their former glory.

The manor is located 50 km outside of Tallinn. Getting there by car takes only 40 minutes from the city center.
