Lissis Bauernhof Apartments

🍧🍨🍦 Vacation at the Ice Cream Farm  🍧🍨🍦

Chocolate-Mint, Forest & Honey, and Yogurt-Wildberry: it is no coincidence that the apartments at Maar Farm bear these names. You have landed in the sweetest vacation spot in Upper Carinthia: at Lissi's Ice Cream Farm.

More than 30 different, handmade varieties of ice cream are produced directly on the farm by farmer Lissi Neuwirth. Most of the ingredients for the farm ice cream come from their own farm: the milk and yogurt are from the farm's own cows, and Lissi gets herbs such as mint from her own cottage garden. Which flavor will you like best? The best way to find out is during an ice cream tasting.

🐮 The Maar Farm is over 400 years old and is traditionally run with cattle farming typical of the Gailtal valley.

The centuries-old tradition can be felt in the farmhouse: once, horse-drawn carriages drove through the now large "Labe" (entrance area). Today, top-quality ice cream is sold here, guests are welcomed, and sometimes ball games are played.

The apartments are located in the farmhouse, on the first and second floors. A maximum of 10 holiday guests can be accommodated at Maar Farm. Two of the apartments are furnished in a rustic, traditional, and cozy style; the Yogurt & Wildberry apartment features classic modern amenities. There is something for every taste.

🐈🐄👩‍🔧🐾🦔Welcome to the Countryside 🐾🦔🌲🐓🐥

A vacation in Goderschach in the Gailtal valley is a vacation in a very small world. The settlement consists of about 10 houses, an inn, and a village fountain. There are three times as many cows as people in the village. There is almost no car traffic, but instead, you will hear the ringing of cowbells, the neighing of horses, and the laughter of children playing.

Your Day at Maar Farm

The garden around the farm is a small vacation paradise for guests: enjoy the day on the wooden bench under the apple tree while the children play on the play tower, in the sandbox, feed the lionhead rabbits, and pamper the cats with cuddles. The farm is located directly on the Gail River Cycle Path, which leads all the way to Villach. This location is ideal for day trips and hikes into the Carnic Alps and to the managed Alpine pastures of the Gailtal. At the Gail (river), you can build dams, make campfires, and grill stick bread.

If you like, you are also welcome to join us in our work around the farm: we dry the hay for the winter, and we feed and milk the cows daily. The calves enjoying their summer on the Alpine pasture are also visited regularly and treated to a snack.

The mountaineering village of Kötschach-Mauthen is about 15 minutes away. Here you will find almost every urban amenity: cafes, swimming pools, department stores, and much more.

We look forward to your inquiry.

Icy & sweet greetings from your host family, the Neuwirths
