Do you – like most noise pestered metropolitans – long for a place surrounded by peace and unspoilt nature? We found it, tugged away in the Austrian Alps at Taxhof.
Ever since 1687 the family Unterberger has lived – in an uninterrupted line of succession – on the Taxhof estate. As soon as stepping onto the generous sun terrace with its majestic view of the High Tauern panorama, you realize why no one has ever been drawn away from this place.
Guests can enjoy the comfortable feeling of a home. The cozy rooms you wake up in are newly designed and furnished with old country pieces. The first view of the mountains immediately puts you in a good mood. Lovely breakfast is served in a sun-drenched dining room. Whilst enjoying the best products from the in-house organic farm, you can plan your day; with plenty of options like walking or trekking tours through surrounding woods and meadows.
If the sun is out, you can opt for a lazy catnap in the meadows close to the house, with the contemplative mountain peace’ effect on your body and mind. Nowhere else does home made wild herbal tea taste as good as here.
Guests staying overnight can enjoy beautiful meals that are prepared with the abundance of regional products, corresponding with the surrounding nature and the seasons. The Taxhof delights with tasteful new details and edge added to the original Austrian style.
