Golfers Traveller Guide: Enjoy a golf trip to Austria where a warm welcome awaits you!

Posted by admin under Austria, Buyers Guide, General, Golf Courses, Golf Travel, Latest Golf News, My Golf Returns

Have you tried the likes of Spain, Mrytle Beach, Ireland, Portugal or France for a golf holiday? Or have you tried some of the new golf locations such as Turkey, Dubai or Bulgaria or do none of these hit the right note? perhaps too humid, too hot, too commercialized, too expensive, too busy or just not quite what you were looking for?

Or are you looking for something completely different, after being fed up with going to the same stereotype golf locations on vacation?

Well, why not try Austria for your next golf vacation?

“Austria?” you may say to yourself - is that not where all the famous skiers and ski-slopes are? Yes, but this is an emerging golf nation with loads of tradition, who have recently produced the likes of the below pictured Markus Brier (www.markusbrier.at) , winner of the European Tour 2006 Austrian Open and 2007 Volvo China Open. A country that has some magnificent golf courses with stunning scenery.

If this hits the right note, we recommend you visit Pertisau, which is a small village in the mountains of Tyrol/ Austria, situated 940 m above sea level on the south eastern shore of the Achensee lake. The Achensee lake, with its 719 ha, is Tyrol’s largest lake. The quality of its clear, deep, emerald-green water is that of drinking water. Surrounded by the beautiful mountains of the Karwendel range nature reserve, Pertisau offers a wide variety of holiday activities.

We recommend you stay with the Leithner family in a house uniquely located - the lake is only a five-minutes walk away and you have an astonishing ample view onto the sailing boats passing by.

The pleasant, caring, friendly and discreet atmosphere of this nice little Bed and Breakfast, which is a “Member of Small Elegant Hotels Worldwide” will make you feel at home. You can enjoy absolute privacy here.

The house, with its beautiful backyard overlooking the lake, is full of charm, character and kindness. It is the perfect hideaway for aesthetes who want to be away from people

The Guardian Angel Suites offer an atmosphere of warmth and security.

It is just wonderful to be there - and the thought that there are angels that protect every single person is something very comforting. Here you will find the finest collection of rooms, such as “Kingdom of Heaven”, “Rose Garden”, the all-natural “Gruene Erde”, the “Alpine Room”, and the “Tyrol Edition”.

Every single Guardian Angel Suite has its unique style and is exquisitely furnished.

Play golf between Karwendel Mountains and the Achensee

The 18-hole golf course will begin in the middle of Pertisau with magnificent views of the Achensee and the powerful scenes of the Alpine Park Karwendel make every game an unforgettable experience.

The place is famous for its altitude (about 1000 meters) unusually playful but sophisticated, and so many golfers here has been one or the other ball into the rough beaten and never found again. The current scorecard can be found here.
