Modrá chalúpka

It is not every day that you have the opportunity to stay in a building that is not only registered in the list of cultural monuments of Slovakia, but also has won the title of the Most Beautiful Traditional Cottage in Slovakia. It is rightfully so, as the enchanting Blue Cottage breathes a truly unique atmosphere, given that its origins date back to the 18th century. Originally a miner's cottage, it is covered with a shingle roof and its interior is inlaid with wood. It offers a four-bed "Miner's Room", a double "Aunt Amálka's Bedroom" and an attic "Room in Heaven", which is simply created for children. The ground floor of the cottage consists of a bathroom with a wooden tub, a smaller bedroom and a kitchen, which is equipped with a dining area, an electric oven, a microwave, an electric kettle and an authentic period stove. Upstairs you will find a living room or common room with a lot of board games, a TV and a DVD player with fairy tales for children.

The Blue Cottage has a large plot of land surrounded by a forest, where you can relax in a garden with a parasol and use the volleyball court. The plot includes a covered threshing floor, which can be used for roasting and grilling, as well as organizing a wide range of family and corporate events. Parking is available directly at the property and, if interested, the owners will provide bicycles, tennis rackets, ski equipment, lunches in the Kremnické restaurant or special equipment for the little ones in the form of a cot, chair or bath.

You will find the Blue Cottage on the outskirts of the village of Kremnické Bane, more specifically in the Staré Piargy part, from where you can fully devote yourself to hiking in the Kremnické vrchy area, but also skiing in the Krahule and Skalka resorts. Near the cottage you will come across a mountain hut where you can buy cheese products and a horse farm where you can arrange a horse ride. Right in the village stands the geographical center of Europe and the impressive church of St. John the Baptist, and both the Trnovník hill and the lookout tower on Krahulsky vrch offer a nice view of the surrounding area. It is definitely worth connecting your vacation with a visit to Kremnica, where countless (and not only) monuments and curiosities associated with the mining past await you. Just to name a few, just mention the Mining Museum, the City Castle, the Calvary, the Museum of Coins and Medals, or the Alley of Famous Noses.
