Coast/Beach
Prague is 1066km from Calais (676 mile drive from the Channel unnel) and 815km from Venice. However, Prague and the Czech Republic offer many lakeside beaches which may offer sandy sunbathing, safe swimming, boating, water sports, bungee jumping and traditional seaside fun. The nearest lakeside beach is 5km from the cottage.
Golf
There are two Prague golf courses which can be easily accessed from the Cottage. Golf courses within a 1 hour drive include Karlovy Vary and the World Class Karlstein golf course.
Skiing
The Cottage makes an excellent base for cross-country skiing, right from the Cottage garden gate! For down-hill mountain skiing, many excellent ski resorts are within a 1 hour drive of the cottage and almost all are within a 2 hour drive of the cottage. Skiing in the Czech Republic offers outstanding value for money.
Special interest holidays
Perhaps appropriately for a country that was led out of communism by playwright Havel, Prague has more theatres than any city in the world, in spite of its relatively small size. The notable Rudolfinum Concert Hall boasts performances by many world class musicians and orchestras, and concerts are performed in many delightful venues such as Baroque churches. Several black light theatres and marionette theatres feature a style of performance unique to Prague. Major events, such as rock concerts, are often staged. Czech beer is outstanding, and is copiously served in cellars, gardens and pubs of every kind. Most styles of international cuisine can be found in Prague restaurants, and dining out can be excellent value, particularly outside Prague. The modest restaurant prices for wine and beer are particularly welcome. Only a few top restaurants are expensive and in general you get what you pay for.
Travel
The cottage is 15 mins from Prague Airport, 20 mins from Prague, 1066km from Calais and 815km from Venice. Prague public transport is excellent; the use of a car within the city centre is not recommended. However, car hire is good value and Bohemia is a delight to explore. Rambling and exploring from the cottage by bicycle is strongly recommended. For more details, see our web site.
Distances
The cottage is situated in a tiny village of Cerny Vul which includes 3 pub restaurants and a local shop. The cottage is 15 mins from the airport and 20 mins from Prague by taxi, car, or bus. Busses are frequent and run precisely to their timetable. For more details, see our web site.
Further details
Exploring by bicycle. The house is not on a road, but is on "cycle track 8100". (But do not worry, cars and taxis can drive up to the house!) By request, we will be pleased to provide you with bicycles. Following a stream flowing down into the Vltava river, cycle track 8100 runs through a delightful forested National Park called "Tyche Udoli" which means "Silent Valley". Inclines are gentle and the track has a reasonable surface, making cycling easy and pleasurable. On reaching the main Vltava river, cycle tracks continue along both banks of the river. Particularly to be recommended is the chain ferry, which for 15kc will carry you and your bicycle across the river to explore further cycle tracks on the far river bank.
Exploring on foot
The cycle tracks, paths, forests and lakes of the National Park are as popular with ramblers as with cyclists. The tranquil valley and enticing paths lead to intriguing wild life discoveries. Cerny Vul translates as "Black Bullock". A sign on the cycle path states "Cerny Vul is a site of rich archaeological finds. A Neolithic ceramic bull's head found here gave the village its name."

Guest comments
"We had a great time in Prague and the Czech Republic and couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. Everyone that went had an absolute ball. We had no worries getting around the city by taxi & were well looked after at the local pub. Thanks for all your help and we will be recommending you and your company to all of our friends." Ben Hodges, Australia 2006/01
"Have had a great holiday in Prague! Its such a beautiful place to visit, we could wander round the streets all day long! Our holiday was made even more perfect by the brilliant care from the IdyllicPrague team. On arrival we were met from the airport and driven to our lovely Cottage
(included in cost!) and were then greeted by another member of the team and shown around.
We regularly ate over at the pub and enjoyed every minute of it, we would get a great meal with desert and drinks for half the price we would in England! Not only that but the presentation of the food was amazing, something similar to a top restaurant"
