The main idea while reconstructing the mansion - grange unit in Garbno is to restore its old and authentic splendor by rebuilding it to a form that would be as close as possible to the form from the beginning of the 20th century. This would allow for the visitors to have a feeling as if had they moved back in time while still being able to enjoy from any recreation forms available in present times. Because of the real estates features, technical condition, law status and attractive localization - the mansion can be modernized and used in various ways:1. Creating a hotel and recreation center located in the middle of Poland's tourist region - Mazury:
3. Apartments - modernization of all the grange buildings and organization of apartments for sale together with the surrounding area (park, pond, etc.); [view simulations: Interiors, Living part] 4. Building a new, additional hotel - apart from the existing mansion - grange unit being protected by the regional conservator and enlarging by this means the hotel part and adapting it to different needs and expectations (additional 70-100 beds) in order to be able to overnight at least 2 tourist buses; 5. Organizing a museum - the mansion as the main museum building, other farmstead buildings restored according to the pre-war character - organizing sightseeing tours for national and foreign groups; 6. Building a medical - rehabilitation center - hospital, clinic, rehabilitation center; 7. Aerodrome for private aircraft with heliport.
