Cozy country house, marvellous view to lake Traunsee and the surrounding mountains. Large garden with pool (from June to Sept.). House and garden invite you to relax and to enjoy the beautiful landscape of the nature park area of the lakes Attersee - Traunsee. Perfect place for hiking, water sports and sightseeing (e.g. Salzburg, Bad Ischl). And get to know what "Gemütlichkeit" really means! Review from British guests:Wonderful location"The house is well-equipped and has wonderful views of the surrounding area as well as Traunsee itself. The host was very welcoming and told us everything we needed to do. He recommended a great bathing area at the lake as well as a fantastic place to have dinner.""We are now back home and would like to thank you: the house was great, big enough for all of us, with a stunning view, and well equipped! We had a wonderful week hiking and discovering the towns nearby."Short descriptionOther : Non-smoking houseShort description 1Number of kitchens : 1Other rooms : Dining roomSurroundingNearby sports facilities : Bike tours, Climbing, Cross-country skiing, Diving, Mountain climbing, Sailing, Skiing (alpin), Surfing, Tennis, Toboggen, Water skiingRental Facilities : Bicycle rental service, Ski-, Snowboard, car rentalSurrounding 1Excursion possibilities : The name of our region is "Salzkammergut". It is a resort area located in Austria. It stretches from the City of Salzburg eastwards along the Austrian Alpine Foreland and the Northern Alps to the peaks of the Dachstein Mountains. The main river of the region is the Traun, a right tributary of the Danube. The name Salzkammergut literally means "Estate of the Salt Chamber" and derives from the Imperial Salt Chamber, the authority charged with running the precious salt mines of the former Habsburg Monarchy.With its numerous lakes and mountains, the Salzkammergut offers many opportunities to take part in water sports, bathing, hiking, cycling, skiing, caving and golf as well as relaxing around lakes such as the Traunsee, Attersee, Mondsee, Grundlsee or Toplitzsee. Typical Salzkammergut culinary specialities include dishes such as Kaiserschmarrn (cut-up and sugared pancake with raisins), Krapfen (similar to doughnuts) or Lebkuchen (gingerbread).Location description : Parts of the region around Hallstatt were listed as a World Heritage Site, with the description: "Human activity in the magnificent natural landscape of the Salzkammergut began in prehistoric times, with the salt deposits being exploited as early as the 2nd millennium B.C. This resource formed the basis of the area's prosperity up to the middle of the 20th century, a prosperity that is reflected in the fine architecture of the town of Hallstatt." The World Heritage Site includes the towns Hallstatt, Obertraun, Gosau and Bad Goisern.Today the Salzkammergut tourism region comprises 52 municipalities, which are part of three Austrian federal states: Upper Austria (Oberösterreich), located in the southern Gmunden and Vöcklabruck districts, Styria with mainly the area around Lake Altaussee (Ausseerland-Region) and the state of Salzburg within the Salzburg District of Flachgau.Recreational facilities include swimming and water sports at the many lakes, mountaineering, cycling and horse riding holidays, winter sports and many cultural events. The area owes its reputation as a recreational area not only to its landscape and climate but also to its many spa.Other leisure facilities : Hiking, swimmingGarden and outdoorGarden facilities : Garden furniture provided, GrillOn-site leisure facilities : Outdoor swimming pool exclusive use, Swimming pool
