“Nous voulons grandement remercier Sandra de nous avoir prêté pour 10 jours son immense appartement, très propre, tout équipé, sur 2 étages, contenant 3 balcons qui nous offraient une vue imprenable sur le magnifique lac de Millstatt. Merci aussi de l'accueil que nous a fait sa mère. Cette région de l'Autriche est splendide, beaucoup de verdure, des lacs, des montagnes majestueuses et des routes et des villages inoubliables. De plus nous avons eu une température des plus extraordinaire, chaude et ensoleillée. Dommage que la barrière linguistique nous ait empêché d'échanger davantage. Salutations à Mario et René et gros bisous à Sandra et Mélissa. We want to sincerely thank Sandra for lending us for 10 days its huge apartment, very clean, fully equipped, on 2 floors, with 3 balconies which provide us with a view of the beautiful Lake Millstatt. And thank you for the welcome we had her mother. This region of Austria is beautiful, lots of greenery, lakes, majestic mountains and roads and villages unforgettable. In addition we had a most extraordinary temperature, hot and sunny. Pity that the language barrier prevented us to share more. Greetings Mario and Rene and big kisses Sandra and Melissa. Lucie et Jean-Marc, septembre 2012”

About our home
We offer a large and beautiful attic flat. On the main floor we have: a large living room with a couch and a small balcony, two single bedrooms (beds 120 x 200 cm and 140 x 200 cm) and a kitchen which is connected to the dining room as well as bathroom and toilet. On the second floor there is a master bedroom and a small room with a couch and there are two large roof-terraces (west and east side) with a great view over the mountains and the lake. Just around the corner there is a playground and we have a cinema just down the road (OMU-films every Tuesday - http://www.kino-millstatt.at).
We have 3-4 guinea pigs which live in a huge cage outside on the balcony all year. They need food twice a day and water once a day. The cage has to be cleaned once a week which is done by my mother. As several of our family members and friends are allergic to animal hair we do not allow animals inside our flat but it is no problem at all if you have pets we should look after during our exchange.

Sandra's reviews
As a host (3)“This lovely and comfortable apartment was perfect for us. The views from the windows and vast decks overlooking the mountains, lake and old town center were beautiful. Varied walks along the lakeshore and on the surrounding forest trails were perfect. We felt very much at home here and were very pleased with the care that Sandra and family took of our Florida home. A wonderful experience!”
“We really enjoyed our stay in Millstatt. The apartment was very centrally located in a very nice village. There were plenty of activities for both kids and adults - swimming in the local lake, cycling around the lake, and hiking in the hills behind the village. Our kids also enjoyed feeding the guinea pigs. Walking up and down the steps to the 3rd floor apartment also kept us fit. Sandra left us with lots of useful information and we were able to get around the area very easily as we also swapped cars. Most days we did not need the car. A very enjoyable swap and I would highly recommend the apartment and this part of Austria.”

Where is it?
Neighbourhood
Our village is surrounded by mountains and situated at a lake. It is beautiful to go biking or roller blading along the lake or explore the mountains (hiking or mountainbiking). From the 18-hole-golf course you have a breathtaking view over the lake. There are a lot of fine restaurants around the lake (partly with boat shuttle)and we have all necessary shops in the village and the nearest town is only 10 minutes away (car, bus). In summer there are several cultural events and festivities. We have a cinema, a disco and some bars. In winter there is a shuttle bus to the ski areas "Goldeck" and Bad Kleinkirchheim. Other ski areas are also nearby (30 - 60 min). Carinthia is full of interesting sightseeing spots and in 40 minutes you can reach Italy and Slovenia and our capital Klagenfurt. The cities Salzburg (bordering to Passau in Germany) and Graz are only 1,5 hours away. Vienna and Munich are about 3,5 hours away (bordering to Hungary for example).
Generally Carinthia offers a beautiful landscape (lakes and mountains) and a lot of cultural events. http://www.millstaettersee.com/de/der-millstaetter-see.html, http://www.kaernten.at/de/, http://www.kaerntencard.at/
