Przystanek Gorce – Mountain Chalet for rent
WE INVITE YOU TO OUR RENTAL CHALET IN GORCE – “PRZYSTANEK GORCE“
We invite everyone seeking a peaceful retreat with ample space to stay at our chalet, “Przystanek Gorce.” Nestled in the scenic Buflak 12 estate in Nowy Targ, the cottage can comfortably accommodate between 1 and 8 guests.
Upstairs, you’ll find two cozy bedrooms. The first bedroom features two single beds that can be combined into a double bed (thanks to clamped mattresses and frames), along with an additional fold-out sofa. The second bedroom mirrors this setup, with two single beds that can also be joined, plus a fold-out armchair for one person. A highlight of the second bedroom is its large, triangular panoramic window offering stunning views of the Gorce Mountains. Additionally, there is a small bathroom with a toilet and washbasin on the upper floor.
Downstairs, the ground floor features a spacious living room, a kitchenette, and a bathroom with a shower. The living room includes a double sofa bed and opens onto a large wooden terrace, perfect for relaxing and taking in the natural surroundings. You might even spot deer or does near the chalet! The terrace is also equipped for barbecues, making it an ideal spot for outdoor enjoyment.
For recreation, the property includes a trampoline (for children under adult supervision), a basketball hoop, and for those interested, we can set up a ping pong table.
