This property is in Lower Saxony - near a (beautiful) town called Zittau. A relaxing, history filled week with day trips to Dresden, Bautzen, Gorlitz and very thought provoking day at Theresienstadt. This house is just across the borders from Poland (fill up your gas tank in Poland) and the Check Republic. The property manager (next door neighbor) went above and beyond to help us understand the town, the area and places to eat and visit. Often, in the local towns when our lack of German let us down - the shop keepers would ask "why are you staying here, or visiting here?" They were confused as to why an American family would visit when German's rarely know this gem exists. Our view - it is because it is full of history, Christmas Markets with some beautiful architecture. We selected this location prior to a week in Prague. We are so happy we did.
