It seems that many of the folks who have stayed here and written a review are cyclists. That makes sense, whether it's an organized tour or you're independent, as the ferry docks in Leisi late in the day and it's a quick ride before dark. Whether you're cycling or driving, a detour to Laugu Turismitalu is the right choice. Estonia pretty much closes up come September, so I was their only guest. Uku and Anneka were waiting for me with a fabulous dinner after a quick shower. A unique sorel soup, fresh flounder under a chanterelle wine sauce, potatoes and squash from the garden, an onion soufflé, and home made cider. A beautiful, handcrafted room with all modern amenities made for a great sleep and both were up to give me a breakfast that would have fed a family of 4. Omelette, fresh breads, cold cuts, home made lamb cutlets, fruit, cheeses, on and in. Oh, yeah- dessert the night before was a creamy parfait with fresh berries and toffee, and the breakfast porridge had fresh honey.
Uku is a wealth of information about all things Estonia, and great fun to talk to. Get a great sleep and dinner, and head out well rested the next day.
I tried to convince Uku (and ever innkeeper in Estonia!) to market themselves for a longer season, and Laugu would be an ideal place to come and relax in the winter. They accept reservations for the off season if made in advance.
Say Hi for me!

What a great host family. We really enjoyed our time speaking with them about life in Laugu and Estonia. It looks like step by step they are building a great facility. The rooms and showers were wonderful. The beds comfortable. Probably the best facility we stayed in during our bike trip.

And the food was wonderful family style local food. Each dish they would tell you where it came from. The fish from the local waters, the apple cider from their farm.

We would have liked to have spent an extra day to enjoy the sauna and spend more time talking with the host family. But we were on a bike tour and couldn't do that.

We were on a cycling trip, and had only one overnight. The rooms are rustic and very comfortable, and we enjoyed several conversations with the host (Uku) about local and global topics. Annika's home-cooked supper was by far the best meal we had during two weeks in Estonia! Wish we could have stayed more than one night.
