Papa Joe’s Residence
A touch of Tuscany in the Heart of the Villány Wine Region
Welcome to my home – Where history meets hospitality.
Leave the noise of the city behind and find perfect peace embraced by vineyards. Here, authentic country hospitality meets modern comfort and exceptional wines.
Meet Papa Joe!
"Welcome, I’m Papa Joe. I was born in 1940 and grew up right here at the foot of the Kisharsány vineyards. As a child, we spent countless hours playing around the old press house. In the 90s, I decided to follow a bold dream: we began renovating the old press house and small wine cellars to create a residence where everyone can feel at home.
We have preserved the rustic charm of the countryside while adding all the comforts a modern traveler expects. It fills me with pride to hear the echo of joyful toasts in our cellar today. "Come visit us and experience it for yourself!"
Comfort and Community at the Foot of the Vineyards
Our stylish apartments, outdoor spaces, event hall, grill terrace, and pavilion provide the perfect setting for family getaways or corporate events. Experience the magic of the Villány Wine Region right here, nestled among the vines!

SHARED EXPERIENCES
An event venue where nature is the backdrop
Papa Joe is constantly beautifying the estate. In addition to our main event hall (seating up to 90), we’ve added a new gem: our handcrafted wooden pavilion. Here, 20 guests can comfortably enjoy a stunning panorama of the vineyards, whether for a family toast or a business meeting. Behind the pavilion, a small park offers a sanctuary of peace, where nature and silence reign.
