Welcome to the Svatá Panna cottage

We're introducing a brand new accommodation concept that has not been available in the Czech Republic yet. Romantic spa cottage Svatá Panna is located in the heart of Bohemian Paradise below the magic mountain Kozákov and offers above-standard accommodation. It combines the romance and nostalgia of a rustic timbered grandma's cottage with the comfort of luxury hotels. At Booking.com we have better reviews than the famous Grandhotel Pupp in Karlsbad.

It’s a new, half-timbered building that sits on a half-hectare of land and offers you exclusive accommodation. The garden is full of mature trees. You can pick herbs for lunch in the flowerbed under the windows. The terrace, gallery and four apartments provide charming views of well-known Bohemian Paradise landmarks: Trosky, Hrubá Skála, Vyskeř, Wallenstein, Bezděz and Kozákov. The spa area features a sauna, heated pool and jacuzzy. It is only a 50-minute drive from Prague, yet the Giant Mountains ski area is within sight.

The house sleeps 12, there are 4 bedrooms:

1st.: BEZDEZ (because you are dreamily overlooking the Bezdez castle from the window) = 2 x king size bed* (180 x 200cm), total 4 people. Entrance to the gallery from the hallway. Classic design Jøtul woodstove for romantic evenings. The interior is decorated with original paintings by Pavel Hejhal.

2nd.: TROSKY (because you are looking at Trosky castle from the window) = king size bed (180 x 200cm),  total 2 people. The interior is decorated with original paintings by Bc. Veronika Svatošová.

3rd.: KOZAKOV (because you are looking at Mount Kozakov from the window) = king size bed (180 x 200cm) + sofabed + baby bed, total 5 people. The interior is decorated with original paintings by Jakub Hříbek.

4th.: CZECH PARADISE (because you will feel in heaven) = king size bed (180 x 200cm) + 2 more extra bed possible, total 4 people. Private bathroom and toilet. Direct access to the pool and jacuzzi on the terrace. The interior is decorated with original paintings by Jakub Hříbek. 

*You will not find the second oak bed in the photos, we added it later. But it is there :-). By the way, the oak wood comes from South Bohemian floodplain forests, and the carpenter spent 50 hours of work on each of the beds.

A healthy and restful sleep is important. As with anything else, we did not spare on mattresses. Look forward to the high-quality medium-hard health mattresses of the Czech manufacturer Dřevočal.

All rooms have a large Samsung smart TV. There is PS4 + VR in the Bezdez room.

On the ground floor are two bathrooms and 3 x WC, upstairs is a bathroom with bath and shower, bidet and toilet.

Guests reviews

Lyhyt arvio: Erinomaisella paikalla, kalustuksella ja wellness -ominaisuuksilla varustettu mökki. Mökin isäntä antoi laaja-alaisen esittelyn mökin ominaisuuksista paikan päällä. Vuodevaatteet, pyyhkeet ja siivous kuuluvat hintaan. Näkymä ja maisemat mökiltä olivat mahtavat. Mökin isännän asiakaspalvelu ensiluokkaista ja sujuvaa. Pitkä arvio: Vierailin Svata Panna -mökillä ystävieni kanssa kesäkuussa. Vietimme viikon tässä mökissä, joka ansaitsee täysin pistein Czech / Bohemian Paradise -alueeseen soveltuvan maineensa. Matkamme suunnitteluvaiheessa merkittävässä asemassa oli mökin sijainti, mutta suomalaiseen makuun vaatimuksena oli erityisesti sauna. Svata Panna täyttää molemmat vaatimukset. Ensimmäiseen yhteydenottoon mökin varauksen osalta vastattiin hyvin nopeasti sähköpostitse erinomaisella englanninkielellä. Yhteistyö ja kommunikaatio mökin omistajien kanssa oli alusta loppuun asti kitkatonta ja sujuvaa. Varsinaisena check-in -päivänä meitä oli vastassa Michal -niminen mökin omistaja. Michal piti meille kattavan esittelyn ja ohjeistuksen mökin varustustuksesta, uima-allas ja jacuzzi -käytännöistä ja pystyimme kysymään häneltä mistä tahansa mökkiin liittyvästä kysymyksestä. Michal oli laittanut meille myös ennen vierailuamme sähköpostilla muutamia (pääasiassa tsekinkielisiä) dokumentteja, joissa esiteltiin lähialueen nähtävyyksiä. Näistä esimateriaaleista oli hyötyä, sillä valitsimme vierailukohteiksemme niistä muutamia. Mökin kuvailu: "luxurious wellness" on erittäin osuva. Haimme mökkiä, jossa on sauna. Sen sijaan saimme mökin, jossa on saunan lisäksi jacuzzi, lämmitetty ja tilava uima-allas sekä runsaasti tilaa kahdeksanhenkiselle ryhmällemme. Keittiö on hyvin varusteltu ja kuumina kesäpäivinä erityisesti jääkaapin jääpalakone sai kiitosta ja näki runsaasti käyttöä. Ryhmämme mieleenpainuvimmat kokemukset, joista tykkäsimme Svata Panna -mökillä: + Näkymät ja maisemat, joissa mieli lepäsi. Takapihan patiolta (uima-allas ja jacuzzi) pystyy näkemään esimerkiksi läheisen Troskyn linnan kaksoistornit. Oli erityisen mukavaa kiivetä Troskyn linnan torniin ja ihailla maisemia (ja yrittää löytää Svata Panna tornista avautuvasta näkymästä) + Mökin siisteys ja hyvä kunto. Siivous, lakanat ja pyyhkeet sisältyivät hintaan (kevensi merkittävästi matkatavaroiden painoa). + Kalusteet olivat tyylikkäitä ja hyvällä maulla valittu + Mökin alkuperehdytys isännän kanssa. Monesti isäntä antaa vain avaimet käteen ja häipyy paikalta, mutta Michal tarjosi meille Bohemia Sekt -kuohuviinit tervetuliaismaljaksi ja esitteli meille kaikki mökkiin liittyvät asiat. + Mökin lähellä oli vain muutamia naapureita, joten omaa rauhaa oli riittävästi. + Pivovar Svijany -panimon olut. Tavallisen minibar -tyyppisen tölkkioluen sijaan, saimme 15 litran kegin hyvää ja kylmää olutta juotavaksemme pientä korvausta vastaan. Svata Panna -mökissä on oluthanatorni ja jäähdytin tätä varten. Kritiikkiä ja rakentavaa palautetta on vaikea keksiä, mutta pystyimme tunnistamaan ainakin yhden: - Mökin saunan kiuas ei ollut riittävä (se ei ollut suomalainen Harvia "heh") ja sen vastukset olivat alitehoiset. Kiukaasta ei irronnut kunnon löylyjä tästä johtuen, eikä tilannetta parantanut löylykauhan virkaa toimittanut soppakauha. Lopuksi: Haluamme kiittää Svata Pannan omistajia vierailusta. Tulemme varmasti toistekin, jos matkamme kohdistuu Tsekin tasavaltaan. Voin sanoa, että tämä kokemus jää vielä pitkäksi aikaa mieleemme.

If you have never visited the Czech Republic, you should put it on your bucket list. It’s one of the most beautiful countries that I have ever visited. It is so pristine. This vacation home is fantastic and I would highly recommend that you put it on your list. It has a beautiful pool and hot tub. The kitchen is amazing. They furnish everything you will need. Bring your family and bring them here for a stay of a lifetime.

ラグジュアリーとセンスの両立
「スヴァター・パナ」は、とにかく特別です。ラグジュアリーとセンスの稀な組み合わせがここを表現するのに最もふさわしい表現でしょう。まずは、景色から。コザーコヴ(Kozákov)の南の斜面からの、トロスキ(Trosky)からイエシュチェドゥ(Ještěd)までの光景は、あまりにも素晴らしいです。やはり、「チェコの天国」(Český ráj)という地名は伊達ではないと実感します。しばらく考えてみると、その解放感の原因として、どこを見てもフェンスがないことに気付きます。さらに、ジャグジーに入りながらこの素晴らしい光景を味わうことは、唯一無二の経験になるでしょう。全くもって、露天風呂に入っているかのような感じがするほどです。ジャグジーを設置したのは、オーナーの最高のアイデアでした。
別荘の中に入りましょう。伝統的な丸太小屋でのようで、そればかりでもないのです。つまり、伝統と現代の上手な組み合わせはとても貴重です。建物、そのレイアウト、サウナ、広大な台所、家具など、どんな詳細なところを見ても、なかなか巧にできていると感心するばかりです。
最後に個人的な感想をひとつ:このラグジュアリーの背景には、成金趣味な見栄ではなく、知恵やセンスが感じられます。それだけでも滞在客は、ここに帰りたがります。

Well, this question was probably best answered by the Amazing Places team, which came for a control visit a year after the cottage opened. Their recommendation was: you should take some pictures again, Svatá Panna in reality is even nicer than in the photos.

 
We have conceived the Holy Virgin (Svatá Panna) generously from the very beginning. Our goal was to create luxury living in harmony with nature and modern trends. We wanted to offer the best accommodation in the Bohemian Paradise region for demanding guests who appreciate the romantic nostalgia of the past combined with modern comfort. We enjoy this work and we do everything to make it the best choice for you. We are very happy that most customers perceive us this way. On Booking.com we have a better rating than Grandhotel Pupp, Karlsbad and in the category of wellness cottage we are the best in the whole Czech Republic. You can read customer reviews on the front page of our website.
 
Only the best materials were used for the construction. We have always made sure that they are local and environmental friendly. The so-called lunar wood comes from the nearby Giant Mountains, harvested in winter after the full moon. Masonry is certified for passive buildings. The roof is made from recycled materials, pavings from old sandstone blocks coming from the surrounding buildings. Heat is provided by the state of the art Viessmann heat pump. In the fully equipped kitchen there are 5 AEG appliances next to the American fridge, as well as 3 x Miele in the utility room. Each room is equipped by a smart TV.
 
We wanted the house not to look only amazing, but as well romantic, cozy and warm. The site itself is sitting in the middle of the UNESCO Geopark for natural and cultural diversity. From the windows and gallery there are breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. All the floors are heated, the dreamy mood is evoked by a look into the crackling wood in the tiled stove.
 
From the very beginning we’ve cooperated with the renowned architect Ing. J. Klimeš. For your convenience we provided him with an unlimited budget. We are grateful for his help, he did a great job.The construction could not be realized without help of excellent local and transcarpathian builders and craftsmen. We would like to thank many heating engineers, floorers, electricians, stove-makers, saunaers, but especially carpenter Radek Šimůnek, who built the wooden part and construction manager Roman Juráš, who carefully coordinated and managed all construction works.
 
We think we've done the work, but that's up to you to judge.

Yes, everywhere in the house (20/10Mbps). You'll get your password when you arrive.

Yes, the cottage is fully equipped. Originally, we did not intend to rent the cottage, so we did not save money on anything.

Bed linen, towels, hairdryers, iron, ironing board, vacuum cleaner, washing machine, tumble dryer (all Miele) are available for you.

The kitchen is equipped with an American fridge, AEG appliances (5x) and the Julius Meinl Inspresso Professional coffee machine. All other small appliances such as a hand blender, toaster, sandwich maker, bread maker, etc. are also available. Why not to have a good fun with the 6 people Tefal racklet?

Last but not least, it includes wellness facilities, all in first class quality: cedar wood sauna, thermal pool and whirlpool.

There are 4 rooms in the house:

  1. room BEZDEZ (because you are dreamily overlooking the Bezdez castle from the window) = king size bed (180 x 200cm) + sofabed, total 4 people. Entrance to the gallery from the common hallway. Stoves Jøtul with classic design for romantic evenings.
