In the south of Bohemia, in a semi-secluded area with a view of the Šumava Mountains, there is the cottage of Petr Rezko, a recognized personality of Czech music. The beautiful building has a fairytale atmosphere.
The charming residence, which Rezek and his wife bought in 1991, is proof of the singer’s deep relationship with nature and traditional living.

From ruin to country charm
Petr, who took on the challenging task of reconstruction, recalls: “I spent two intense years here. The work was endless, from brickwork to paving. Such is the fate of those who try to breathe new life into old bones.” Fortunately, he was not alone in the repairs. The warmth and support of a friend and neighbors turned challenging challenges into shared triumphs.

Harmony of tradition and comfort
Peter’s vision for the cottage was clear – to retain its classic charm. However, despite initial reservations, the renovation included practical modernity, integrated central heating and a renovated bathroom without compromising the soul of the cottage. Yet it is precisely the ancient furnace, the guardian of tradition, that testifies to Peter’s dedication to authenticity. “Warm bread, fresh from the oven, is a piece of heaven that no delicacy can compare to,” notes Peter.
A source of inspiration and creativity
In addition to physical beauty, the cottage serves Rezek as a source of inspiration. In the challenging times of lockdowns and restrictions, the cottage has turned into a sanctuary of creativity. “I brought recording equipment here from Prague and set up an improvised studio in the guest room,” confides. From this period of isolation, the album “After the journey 2020” was created, which captures the introspective and reflective mood of the time.
The essence of country life

Next to the cottage there is a cellar in which a well with drinking water is hidden, which Rezek himself discovered and tested. By the stairs to the cellar, there is a specially built alcove for cooling beer, which adds a touch of whimsy and comfort to the cottage and proves that the house is not only a place of work, but also of rest and entertainment.
A symphony of life in nature
For Petr Rezek, a cottage is more than just living – it is a refuge that reflects the rhythms of nature, a source of artistic inspiration and a testimony to the beauty of traditional living. When he and his wife commute between the Prague apartment and the building in Šumava, it is clear that the cottage has a special place in their hearts and symbolizes a life in harmony with nature and creativity.
