Home description
Our apartment is nestled at one end of the beautiful and welcoming village of Kaprun. In a quite and serene location at the foot of the magnificent glacier covered 'Kitzsteinhorn' Mountain. It provides breathtaking views of alpine scenery from the living area, balcony, kitchen and bathroom - ideal for relaxing both the eyes and soul after a hard days skiing, shopping or just taking it easy! It is hard to believe that just a few minutes walk along the road and you could be in the centre of the Village (5 mins walk), at the nursery slopes (only 300m away), at the foot of the 'Maiskogel' skiing area (10 minutes walk) or taken advantage of any number of restaurants, cafes or shopping opportunities. This is not just a holiday apartment, it is our home from home, making the experiences that this region brings even more enjoyable, knowing at the end of the day you can relax in a spacious, clean, and comfortable and welcoming ‘home’. It has a fully fitted kitchen, spacious lounge/dining room, with a balcony overlooking the mountains and other delightful alpine scenery. The double bedroom comes with fitted wardrobes and bedside cabinets. There is a separate sleeping area for the children, in the form of bunk beds and a comfortable double sofa bed if required. If that weren't enough we can also provide you with the use of one of only 6 garages at the apartments. This can obviously be used for parking your car, bikes which may have hired or keeping your ski gear in (although there is a separate 'ski storage' area available in the block.
