Vacation Rental Cottage, Oybin

The small holiday home is idyllically situated in the countryside in Oybin, a small climatic health resort that belongs to the district of Görlitz. You live only 200 meters from the bakery and shops, so you can always enjoy fresh bread rolls in the morning before you start an eventful day of vacation. When the weather is nice, you can relax on the covered terrace, where there is also a barbecue and you have a beautiful view of the mountains.

Grocery and souvenirs can be found in town, for larger purchases a short trip to Zittau is recommended. There are a few restaurants where you can enjoy the typical Saxon and Upper Lusatia cuisine, but you can also try hearty Bohemian dishes.
