About the home

The Cottage is located within the boundary of the Lower Tatras National Park in the stunning heavily treed Demanova Valley (Demanovska Dolina). It is in a small hamlet just outside the village of Pavcina Lehota. Here there is a shop, a couple of restaurants and a lovely ski hill called Ziarce with a couple of runs and night sking on offer. The restaurant at the Tri Studnicky Hotel offers some of the best food in Slovakia and is only five minutes walk away across a winding stream that runs directly in front of the cottage.

It is a perfect location for either a winter or summer holiday. Skiing is available just five minutes drive away at Slovakia's largest resort of Jasna, and there are numerous other smaller ski hills within a short drive. Just up the road are the famous and spectacular Ice Caves which are well worth a visit.

In the summer there is mountain biking, walking, aqua parks, water sports, and lots of history to explore. The local food is excellent and you will definitely have to keep active to stop from gaining a few pounds!

The cottage is rented out all year round on a self catering basis. However, we have a local American friend who has lived in the area for many years and would be on hand to provide advice and act as your guide where necessary for a small additional fee.

“Cute little chalet in lovely country location” Very nice little chalet in the low Tatras. Good size for a family or a little group. We were 5 adults and 1 child and were comfortable. The chalet is well equipped and the location lovely. Only minutes drive from some of the best skiing and snow in Europe (we stayed in winter over Christmas), and some great sites. Orava Castle (30 mins away) is lovely, and there are some caves and natural thermal bath nearby well worth visiting. The owner of the chalet was both very helpful and easy to deal with, and the local contact (who is a native English speaker) was amazingly helpful and generous, so thank you to both for a great holiday!
