Staying Somewhere Special
It’s all about the how! Do you fancy a luxury holiday or are you more into down-to-earth, authentic experiences? Have you ever dreamt of sleeping in a four-poster bed? Sitting in the sauna while you’re watching the cows graze on the alpine pastures ... Is that on your bucket list?
A farm holiday in Austria is your chance to get a taste of a new life. Are you looking for the simple life? Do you want to get back to the roots? Would you like to cut firewood for the hot-water boiler yourself? Do you prefer sitting under the open sky in a hot tub with a glass of exclusive wine?
Farm holidays in Austria are as diverse as peoples’ interests. We have precisely what you’re looking for!
A Bed in the Cornfield
A once-in-a-lifetime experience! The four-poster bed is placed on top of a hill with a breathtaking panoramic view. First, you will see the lush green surroundings, then the sunset, and at night, it’s time to stargaze under the clear, open sky. The crickets are chirping as if they were lulling you to sleep ... The next morning, the farmers serve an ample breakfast to your bed. For you, yet another fantastic day is about to start.
Meanwhile, on a different farm, a cosy barrel right next to the forest is waiting for guests to snuggle up inside. The interior is fully furnished with not only a comfy bed but also a small table, seats and storage room for your luggage. Meals, shower and sauna - all this is located in the farmhouse next door. At night, you can hear the burbling of the stream ...
How about spending a night in a traditional Mongolian yurt? This is another unique farm stay in Austria. When a farmer from Vorarlberg marries a guy from Mongolia, the blending of cultures gives rise to new, exciting ideas that guests on the farm can take advantage of.
Like Birds of a Feather
Whether it’s a herb farm or a horse farm, each of our specialised farms puts an emphasis on the very interests, offers and qualifications that are characteristic of the farm and the hosts.
Music, handicrafts, walks through the forest, wildlife watching, hunting or saluting the sun in the early morning - the activities are manifold. Get inspired in the farmer’s kitchen or help harvesting the grapes or bringing in the hay.
Farmers also have their hobbies and passions. If they offer what they’re passionate about, like-minded guests can join them. Birds of a feather flock together.
Unusual, quirky products and creative ideas, extraordinary treats and the first collapsible shopping basket made out of Austrian stone pine are topping it off.
Holidays with a Twist
It goes without saying that the farmer running the trial farm in Lower Austria’s Mostviertel region is a keen competitor himself. Guests enjoy the amazing course with obstacles and other fun elements that he has set up on his own lands.
If you stay in the honey bee centre in Carinthia, you will not only learn everything about beekeeping and honey extraction. There’s even a private beehive in your apartment’s living room. Sit down on the couch, relax and observe the bees behind a wall of glass.
Geese, pigs, goats, llamas or alpacas ... a number of farms has specialised in raising their very favourite animal species. That’s fascinating! There’s a saying: “Be careful. Looking into an alpaca’s eyes could make you fall in love!” Would you like to take your chances?
Snug as a Bug in a Rug
Natural materials that are used for the furnishings and interiors on the farm enhance your well-being. In the bed made of Austrian stone pine, you will wake up regenerated and revived. Austrian stone pine proved to have positive effects on human health.
Solid wood furniture that has been built by the local carpenter or rustic furniture from the farmhouse that has been restored with great care adds to the beauty. You can stay in a historic “Troadkasten”, a wooden cabin that was once used as a granary. You can also travel back to the 17th century and spend some time on a farm that was restored with great care. Soak up history without missing modern amenities.
You can sleep in a part of the barn that has been converted to a lodging. Be close to the cows. You can also visit the Shire and stay in a hobbit’s house. The main thing is to relax and regenerate!
