About the home

The property sits in an elevated position just a 2 minute walk from the Wolfgangsee. There are many restaurants within easy walking distance and it is only a leisurely 10 minute walk into the centre of St Wolfgang.

The Schafberg steam railway and access to the ferries that traverse the lake are less than a 5 minute walk. There is a public bathing area just a 2 minute walk from the house if you fancy a dip.

In the winter months good family skiing can be had in the local Postalm ski area which is a 25 minute drive with skiing for the more adventurous available within 30 minutes.

It is an ideal property for large families or two families for either summer or winter vacations.

The Upper Austria/Salzkammergut region

The region is exceptionally beautiful and makes and ideal holiday location in summer or winter. In summer the weather attracts many to the lake to indulge in the many water sports available.

There are plenty of sight seeing trips to enjoy. In winter, the skiing is not far away either by car or the free local ski bus.

The St Wolfgang area

There are many festivals throughout the year - at Christmas time there is the Advent Festival with various activities taking place throughout the month of December.

In the summer, you can relax by the lake at the public bathing places and enjoy a dip in the crystal clear waters of the lake. There are all manner of watersports; water skiing, scuba diving, sailing, etc

There is a beautiful golf course approximately 20 minutes drive from the chalet.

The property is only 45 minutes drive from Salzburg Airport which is serviced by cheap flights from London Stansted all year round by Ryan Air. In the winter months there are also other cheap flights from other local UK airports - Leeds/Bradford- Jet2, Manchester - Thomson etc.

You could also look at flights to Munich which is a 2 hour drive, Linz, an hour and a half or Vienna, a 3 hour drive.

All the usual hire car companies Hertz, Avis, Europcar have offices at the airport and you will need to check which is the cheapest at the time but generally we have found Sixt to offer the most competitive rates.

“Very comfortable, very good location. Quiet yet within reach for all amenities.” We had a wonderful stay at Howling Wolf Ski Chalet St.Wolfgang. there is absolutely no complaints for the house. It was so comfortable and roomy. We were 8 adults and all of us shared one bedroom each. the location is also ideal with no traffic noise and yet everything you need is within your reach. St. wolfgang is one one of the best towns we have ever been. We went all ovwe. St. Gilgen,Hallstatt,Storbl, Krimml,Salzburg but we just loved our own town. it has so much beauty and history behind the picturesque lake and rolling hills. Thank you Susan, for this memorable holiday. And thank you Justin, you were always around when we needed you. Kind Regds. Nilufer

“We loved it” We spent a wonderful week at Howling Wolf holiday home. We were 7 persons (2 families) and the house was perfect for our group. Firstly, the most important thing is what you see and read on the Internet is exactly. No unpleasent surprises. The guests can use the “high” ground floor (1 bedroom, the kitchen, the living room and one bathroom) and the first floor (3 bedrooms and another bathroom). The garrage and the attic floor were closed (but who need it?). One of upstairs bedrooms has an extra bed (a very interesting one!). Both floors have balconies, where it was so good to relax with a coffee in the morning or a drink in the evenings. The nice views (the mountains and even the Wolfgangsee lake), the feeling of space, the balconies, the very well- equipped kitchen (including espresso machine, toaster and all you need for our meals), the nice yard (where almost evey morning we had “visitors”, a deer with her baby!), and, especially, the permanent peace of this location, all of this create such a good atmosphere! The house is situated in Ried (who is glued to St. Wolfgang) in a 20 minutes walking distance to St. Wolfgang centre. Don't forget to take a walk to the opposite direction of St. Wolfgang direction, above the lake edge! It worth it, better renting a bycicle! For us, this place was a good base for visiting the nearest or farthest area (for example 45 min. driving time to Hallstatt, 50 min. to Salzburg city center, 70 min. to Hallein salt mine, 90 min to Prien in Germany, for Herrenchiemsee Palace, 150 min. to Kaprun, etc) I can't finish my review without saying many thanks to Susan (who was an charming and helpful e-mails partner) and Andy and, of course, to Justin, the local representant, very helpful, also, and nice person.

Guestbook for Howling Wolf Chalet

Hello Sue.

We had a wonderful, fantastic time in AUSTRIA. Just got back to our regular grind today. Alasss!!!! A wonderful holiday in one of best places on earth ST WOLFGANG!!!! What a place you have selected. I think it was better than Hallstatt, St. Gilgen, Strobl. However, SALZKAMMERGUT area is so absolutely stunning. Your house is very comfortable and pretty, very well located. Quiet as well as within reach of almost everything. We so wanted to stay back one more day but our friends colud'nt extend their stay. Anyway all good things also come to an end so that there is fresh beginning for some more good times!!!! Bye and Warm Regds. Nilufer

Hello Susan

I would just like to let you know that we really enjoyed staying at your house, Howling Wolf Chalet. The location was superb for walking into St. Wolfgang and for other local amenities.
The house itself was lovely and clean, well equipped. It was spacious, especially for just the four of us.
We loved sitting on the balcony in the evening time and, as we bring our own sunloungers we spent some time just resting in the garden.
We did see deer in the garden and across the road, which was nice for us.

All in all, despite some dull/wet days, we enjoyed our holiday

Thanks from us all

Richard

We had a great time and the region and chalet were beautiful. We hope to be able to return one day. Good luck with your plans to someday spend more time there, we can certainly understand the attraction. Kind regards, Michelle (& Family)"

"Happy New Year to you too! It's taking us a little bit of time to get back into the swing of things after a great week away!! The chalet was so great! We couldn't believe how nice it was and how much work you guys have put into it. It really shows! You have a gem of a place! Great location too. We are seriously questioning whether or not to come back in the spring - the trails are very tempting! We did go on the one with the waterfall when all the snow melted - wow! Amazingly beautiful!" Take care,Tom and Joy K
