Only under professional guidance!
The reed hut of Matula constructed next to the house, paying respect to the greatness of the writer of many popular novels, recalls the atmosphere of Tüskevár (the title of István Fekete's novel about Kis-Balaton). The memorial room and the hut can be visited under professional guidance, starting from the Kis-Balaton Visitor Centre, at guaranteed dates.
