Ferienhof Pemberger
- Farm Stay
About Us
Since 1998 we accommodate guests on our farm Ferienhof Pemberger and offer premium quality (4 flowers). Ever since, we deliberately do without “mass tourism”. We run a traditional Austrian small-scale farm with animal husbandry and forestry at an altitude of 1,000 m featuring a sunny location and a spectacular panoramic view. From this spot you can see the town of St. Veit/Glan all while being far away from its noise, hustle and bustle.
We especially care about making sure our farm is family-friendly and yet gives our guests an authentic and real insight into farming. In summer, you can see the hay being brought in, in autumn fruit is harvested and in the barn guests can lend a helping hand at any time of the year.
We have a large playground featuring a children’s play house for our youngest guests. They can make the first experiences on a tractor using the pedal tractors and have a race with our caddies (a type of “summer toboggan”).
Our farm is set in Central Carinthia, a region which boasts an interesting contrasting diversity. There are a lot of lakes for swimming in the immediate vicinity and a public outdoor + indoor pool in St. Veit/Glan. The nearby rolling hills (small mountains) and vast alpine pastures are ideal for leisurely country walks. Should you still fancy a more demanding hike, you can go on a day trip further south towards the Karawanken or simply enjoy looking at this mountain range from the balcony in the holiday home.
However there’s a number of sights you shouldn’t miss out on: lots of castles and palaces (in particular Hochosterwitz Castle which has never been conquered), museums, Europe’s tallest wooden lookout tower, a “small city at Lake Wörthersee”, and much more. There’s a lot to discover.
We’re happy to give you recommendations on all kinds of outings.

-
On request, you can get milk from our hay-fed cows instead of milk from the supermarket. You can also give it a try and milk it yourself with guidance from an expert.
- There are lots of herbs and vegetables to be used in the kitchen in our 100 m² garden. Our farm is dotted with shrubs and berries from which you can snack on tasty berries. We are growing wine and hope for a successful harvest soon.
- Of course there’s also a traditional orchard including different types of apples, pears and plums as well as a nut tree and cherries, depending on the season.
Have you ever wanted to milk a real cow yourself? Then you’ve found the right place! We’re happy to show you how it’s done. You’re also welcome to join us with other farming tasks in the barn. After all, our dairy cows and their offspring have to be taken care of every day.
Our chicken provide us with eggs for breakfast every day. They are very reliable. Our many cats are happy about every cuddle they can get.
“Maja”, our pony, is looking forward to a snack or two and is willing to carry people on her back.
Since 2015, we breed Jezersko–Solčava (German: Kärntner Brillenschaf), a native sheep breed. We are the first ones to do so in the municipality of Frauenstein. We deeply care about the preservation of this threatened native species. Recommendation: Every summer, you can look forward to cute lambs.
In charge of safety on our farm: Our good-natured and faithful dachshund “Titus vom Lindnergrund”.
