Invigorating Spring Break

The Saaremaa Opera Festival will take place in the Kuressaare castle courtyard on 23-28 July. This year you can get acquainted with the Catalonian Opera.

Join us for an unforgettable full moon evening of acoustic melodies by Piret Krumm and delectable dining by renowned chef Achim Braitsch. After the 3-course dinner, rowing boats take us across Pädaste Bay to the Island of Love with the magical full moon guiding our way through the shimmering sea for the concert that continues into the wee hours.

We invite you to an intimate concert performed by the widely-acclaimed pianist, much loved by our regular guests – Mihkel Poll, together with violinist Mari Poll, and cellist Henry-David Varema. The concert program includes trio in B major by the Romantic composer Johannes Brahms and the beautiful piano trio islands / saared by one of the most beloved Estonian composers, Tõnu Kõrvits, written specially for the trio Poll-Varema-Poll in 2023.

We will learn how to find our own mushroom spots, which mushrooms to pick and which ones to leave in the forest, and how to preserve mushrooms for the winter. Mushroom picking nature-walk under the guidance of mycologist Veiko Kastanje.

Celebrate a decade of musical magic with Sharón Clark and Mattias Nilsson as they return to Pädaste for a night of unforgettable melodies and timeless tunes. The concert is followed by a delightful three-course dinner prepared by Chef de Cuisine Achim Braitsch specially for that evening. 

At Pädaste we are doing something about the classical dilemma – when young lots of energy and gusto for experience but short of money; when older plenty of money but little time.
