Our little paradise is a 92 m² two-storey holiday home located in Felsőörs, on the Balaton highlands, surrounded by forests and vineyards in a tranquil setting. It is also close to lake Balaton which is Central Europe's largest lake.
This is a charming and cozy retreat, ideal for families, couples or friends who value peace, nature and simplicity.
The Space
On the ground floor there is a living room, a fully equipped kitchen with gas stove, electric oven, microwave, and a coffee machine with built-in grinder, as well as a bathroom with shower and toilette.
Upstairs there are two bedrooms:
The larger bedroom has a double bed and a pull-out bed with two 90×200 cm mattresses, providing a comfortable double sleeping space. From here you can access a large covered balcony with stunning views of part of Lake Balaton, the surrounding hills, forests and vineyards.
The smaller bedroom features one pull-out bed, best suited for two children, and two single beds, each 90×200 cm.
Hot water is provided by an electric boiler. On cooler days, a wood-burning stove heats the entire house, with additional heating from an electric and an oil radiator. Please note that there is no air conditioning.
There is no Wi-Fi or TV channels, but the TV can be connected to your own device or USB drive for watching movies.
Free parking next to the house
Guest Access
Guests will have full access to the entire home: all bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen, living and dining areas, the terrace and the garden. The last 500 meters to reach our home is along a gravel and grassy road. For the past 11 years, all cars have accessed it without problems; only after heavy rain it can feel a little less comfortable, but it is still passable. On hot summer days, our flowers and trees appreciate a little watering – they reward you with their beauty.
Notes
We kindly ask our guests to leave the house tidy before departure. We will arrange professional cleaning after each stay so that everything is fresh for the next exchange. Our two dogs and cat are part of the family, but they will be cared for elsewhere during exchanges, so guests do not need to look after them.

Hello, we are a married couple for 34 years, proud parents of 4 children and already blessed with 3 grandchildren. Both of us are still working – my husband in commerce and I in the insurance field.
We love traveling, hiking and meeting new people. Over the years we have explored many beautiful places around the world, such as Alaska, Hawaii, the Azores, the Seychelles, Greece, France, Ireland, Cape Verde, etc.
At home, we share our life with two lovely dogs and a cat, who are true members of our family.
We are open, respectful, and very excited to discover new destinations through.
