A cute 3 bedroom holiday rental cottage in a quiet hamlet just half an hour from Charles Bridge, Prague, the Czech Republic. Sleeps 4 to 6.Pretty fenced garden with fruit trees, 5 mins walk from a swimmable river and a great pub, lovely surroundings, train stop 3 mins walk, very good access to Prague. Perfect for a family trip combining walking, cycling, swimming and canoeing in the river, castles, golf etc. with the historical sights of Prague. €340 to €475 per week. Downstairs there is a cosy living room, with large windows overlooking the garden and the countryside beyond. This room has a dining table seating six, a sofa, two armchairs and a coffee table. Also a TV, DVD player and a small collection of films. We offer plenty of games and activities for children, and a folder packed with maps, leaflets and ideas of things to do. In the corner there is a wood-burning stove to warm the room in the cooler months (electric radiators also provided). Also downstairs is a well equipped kitchen with a gas oven and four-ring cooker, fridge with freezer compartment, microwave, toaster, food mixer and chrome kettle, plenty of pots, pans, utensils and cutlery. A few basic food items are provided (teabags, coffee, sugar etc.).
There is also a second living room/bedroom with a double sofa-bed, a table and a large wardrobe. There is another wood-burning stove in this room. The bathroom and toilet are downstairs too. The bathroom has a washing machine and a bathtub incorporating a shower. There is a separate toilet with washbasin. Upstairs are the two main bedrooms. One has a queen size double bed and two singles and the other has two single beds. Both have plenty of natural light and lovely views. The wooden floors and sloping wooden ceilings add to their character. The garden is perfect for children, even young ones (of responsible parents!). It is completely fenced, the steps of the pool can be easily removed and there are no poisonous or prickly plants! We have a swing for the little ones, a barbecue and camp fire area for the slightly older ones, and four comfortable lounger chairs for all ages! For outdoor dining there is a wood and stone table and benches that comfortably seats eight, as well as a round plastic table with four chairs and a sunshade in case the sun gets a bit hot. If you fancy some exercise but don't feel like getting wet or going on the bikes, there's a badminton set with four rackets and a net. Our country cottage is in a little village on the river Sázava called Zlenice. It is just outside Prague, to the southeast, in the direction of Brno. By car it takes exactly 30 minutes to reach Wenceslas Square, in the heart of Prague. For those without a car, the cottage can be reached very easily by train too, in just over an hour. Although there are some permanent residents, this hamlet is mainly made up of weekend cottages for people living in Prague. They leave Prague on a Friday afternoon, when work finishes, and make their way to their cottages, cars piled high with food, bits and pieces for the garden and other goodies. "Prague Cottage" is on a quiet country lane with other cottages. It stands in a gently sloping garden (500m2) overlooking fields and woodland. With the peace and quiet it is sometimes hard to believe that we are so close to Prague! In fact, deer are regular visitors and can be spotted on moonlit nights foraging by the fence in the fields behind the house. Although we do spend time here ourselves in the snowy winter months, the best time to visit is between April and October, when the weather is warm enough to head off for long walks in the forests or bike rides to nearby castles.
