Timber & Green

What would a cabin in Austria be without views of the glorious mountainside? This one, located in Tauplitz, combines picturesque vistas with snug furnishings and a very desirable location – the nearest ski lift being only a seven-minute walk away. If that’s not an invitation to spend as much time on the slopes as possible, we don’t know what is. With intermediate, advanced, and expert trials, go out and test your mettle on the slopes after warming your boots in storage back home. If you trust your feet more without something attached to them, that’s okay, too – there’s plenty else to explore. The town centre is about seven minutes away and a joy to visit, settle in at one of the restaurants to sample some of the most delicious-sounding items on the menu.

The Grimming Therma Spa, eighteen minutes away, also offers sauna bars, water slides and relaxation areas over five levels, but if home is where you prefer to find your peace, then we encourage you to light a fire, grab a glass of wine and settle in with a romance novel. Take a swim in the pool, play a game of tennis, or sweat it out in the sauna whilst simultaneously getting a huge dose of serotonin.

Spend evenings together making use of the outdoor furniture to dine alfresco before retiring to the lounge for a good few rounds of Clue or Monopoly.
