The above photo was from our hotel balcony.


I booked the hotel via booking.com - to be fair I did not expect a lot as it was only £45 for 4 nights for 3 people. That included breakfast which was superb also. The room was very large & as my daughter was only 5 she had her own bed in our room. The hotel was almost brand new, and more like a good old fashioned guest house than a hotel, even the dog was allowed to stop.

To get to the high street with all the restaurants and bars, plus the lift that takes you to the top of the ski slope was a 15 minute walk, with some breathtaking mountain views.

The high street.


It has the lot, superb bars/restaurants with food from most countries, a huge T-bone steak and a beer will set you back £15.00. Some restaurants have live music, traditional music to the local area. The beer for the most part is brewed locally and the local cheese is made from sheep dairy, and is a very unusual tasting cheese. (worth a try)

A ride to the top of the mountain in a carriage is only a few of them £'s also.

The bar below has a grill behind the bar, you choose your food and it gets cooked fresh in front of you, the atmosphere is a delight to be in, the food was beyond compare, the staff were superbly friendly also, out of 10? 10.

I wish I had more high street photos.


To give you more of a feel for it, so maybe google street view the high st, I do not google so can not put a link up.

The photo below is just off the high street, at the base of the mountain. A horse and cart is around £20 for 30 minutes, we did partake in a ride, it takes you around the mountain roads with some stunning views..

The mountain!


Okay so we know it only costs a few $'s to get to the top, you can walk up it if you like, we took the lazy route though, once at the top you have again masses of choice for restaurants and bars, huts selling souvenirs and the odd conman or three trying to rip tourists off with spot the dice under a cup or three. They run fast when the law turns up, avoid at all cost.

I will leave you with some random shots to get the feel, and stop waffling.

Nearest airport is Krakow, and that is also a 10/10 place to visit, that I will cover in another post, this post would have included a lot more photos if stinc sorted the site out so that you do not get error 50 times per upload.

Deliberators verdict = a very cheap holiday indeed, and some beautiful sights to boot.


Have a wonderful week ahead, and sort the site out stinc inc.

Thank you for that my friend, it looks absolutely beautiful .. like stepping back in time, loving the horse-drawn carriages and those mountains look ripe for exploration. ;) Excellent .. thank you for sharing!

I promised and delivered the goodies, hope you get time 1 day to check the place out, it is well worth it.
Have a great day my friend.

a totally beautiful place, since I would love to go on vacation there, excellent photos

Thanks my friend, glad you liked them.

Very nice and affordable to. I only seem to get the error msg when my internet connection is not good.

It is very affordable for sure, compared to the rest of Europe, although it gets even cheaper in Slovakia.
No bad internet here, over 30 mbps connection,, so no excuses my end, over to stinc it is.

Wow even cheaper in Slovakia. I just had the same problem took me about 10 times over 20 minutes to upload a photo.

Told ya so lol, and yes, even cheaper over there.

It looks like an excellent place to vacation. That's for the walk through.

I appreciate your support, thank you. Upvoted

Indeed it is, thanks for stopping by.
