Farm holidays

Lying in the grass and watching the cows: that’s a farm holiday for sure

A farm holiday is always a holiday in (and surrounded by) nature. For families with children, this means: put that smartphone away and enjoy nature’s bounty.

If you’ve always wanted to know what fresh milk tastes like and what a horse’s mane feels like, then a farm holiday is the right choice for you. As guests in nature, children leave their smartphones behind and pet tame animals instead. In the Vienna Alps, you can spend your holiday on numerous farms.

The daisies will show you the way

Some of these places and farms are officially categorised by the Landesverband für Urlaub am Bauernhof und Privatzimmervermietung in Niederösterreich and offer a particularly high level of quality for your stay. 120 criteria such as room facilities, range of experiences on offer or location of the house culminate in a farm rating of two to five daisies.
