Relax you've arrived at Johanneshof 1604

Haus Johanneshof built in 1604 is one of the oldest houses in Stubenbach, Lech. Not that you’d know, the apartments are big, light and airy with a fabulous position and great views looking over the Lech valley and river.

Stubenbach adjoins Lech, it’s connected by a free bus which runs every 10 mins, takes just a few minutes, and to be honest, it’s actually a lot more convenient than a lot of locations in Lech, you step out of the ski room to the bus and can get off at the Schlosskopf, Schleglkopf or Rufikopf lifts or the gondela to Oberlech, you have absolutely no distance to walk – unless you want to. It really makes the logistics of skiing, particularly with kids, a walk in the park.

However, if you choose to walk (preferably without ski boots on) in 20 mins you can be in the centre of Lech enjoying a little tipple on the balcony of Lech’s famous Strolz department store – life doesn’t get better.

As we’re surrounded by countryside, there are a number of walking paths mowed into the snow around Stubenbach, it’s under the treeline and simply stunning, it’s lovely to feel close to nature and away from the crowds. If you like we can even order you raw milk and organic beef from the farmer opposite.

You needn’t worry the kids can play safely outside, in what’s the horse paddock during the summer, next to the house.

As well being a 10 second walk to the bus stop it’s the same distance to the local bar/restaurant, where you can experience traditional Austrian cooking either in or out, as we’ve arranged for them to deliver to your apartment so that can enjoy good food in the comfort of your own space, Kase spatzle is my favourite comfort food after a hard day on the piste.

All of the apartments have modern, tasteful bathrooms, comfortable beds (the sofa beds are the same quality mattresses as the regular beds) and all the mod cons that you’d expect in the kitchen. Each apartment comes with a parking space, for a small fee if you can leave your car in the heated underground car park in Lech.

We want you to feel at home and we’re offering a number of additional services to help make your stay even more perfect:

- Fresh bread from the local bakery delivered each morning – just let us know at the beginning of the week what your preferences are – I love the minifinshca which is a dark, moist bread with a delicious caraway and nutty flavour.
- Shopping service. Why waste valuable holiday time and energy going round the supermarket, when we can do it for you, simply send us a list of your requirements, allowing us a little leeway, and when you arrive your fridge and larder will be stocked for your holiday.
- Ski companion – are you new to Lech, just want to get on with skiing or maybe you like to take it easier than the rest of your party and get fed up with feeling like you’re holding them back?
We’d love to show you around the ski area. During high season please let us know well in advance.
-We’ve been here for years and know all of the best places to eat and what activities are available, if you have something special in mind that you’d like us to take care of we’re always here for you.
- Your apartment will be lovely and shiny on arrival if you’d like additional cleans during your stay just inform us when booking.
- Lech is a very child friendly resort, if your little ones are too young to try skiing or the ski kindergarten, the babysitting service is excellent, just let us know what service you’d like and it will be done.
- We accept pets, but please don’t leave your pets unattended, we don’t want to disturb our other guests with lonely barking dogs. We can organise a dog sitter/walking service for you whilst you’re out.
- Special occasion? Do you need a birthday cake or help shopping for a special person? A horse drawn sleigh ride to a remote, romantic restaurant, will be a magical unforgettable evening.
