Self-catering Austria

Most of our customers prefer to hire a car in Austria as it is then so easy to reach our villas in Austria. You could also drive there directly or with a stopover in France or Germany, using one of the ferries. However, if you prefer to travel to your self-catering Austria accommodation by plane, it is good to know that the Austrian infrastructure is well-established. Most direct flights from the UK arrive in Vienna or Salzburg and from there; most of our Vienna apartments and other city apartments can be easily accessed. We recommend to either hire a car or to go by OEBB train, depending on the exact location when staying in our holiday lettings in Austria. Austria is also well-suited to getting around by bicycle, so if you would like to take things at your own pace, why not explore the landscape on two wheels?

If you are a passionate skier or snowboarder, you may have spent some of your holidays in Austria already. There are numerous famous skiing areas that are situated close to our holiday homes in Austria which, of course, are also the perfect starting point for cross-country skiing, snowshoeing or bobsledding. For those of you who are not so keen on outdoor winter sports, alternatively you could organise a day trip to one of Austria’s fantastic cities such as Salzburg or Vienna, taking in some Austrian culture and history as well as some beautiful architecture during your next self-catering Austria holiday. Or, why think about a city break and visit some of the great Christmas markets in Austria during your next winter holiday in Europe?
