Entire upper floor is for your use. Three large bedrooms and two bathrooms. Very quiet—it’s a sheep farm. Hostess Sandra speaks excellent English and is very helpful. I loved the fancy coffee machine. It has a nice view over the whole town of Matrei.

Very well presented modern property with awesome view over Matrei in Östtyrol and surrounding mountains. Very well equiped and very accommodating hosts

Matrei is a nice little town in a stunningly beautiful valley. The accommodation has great views to the mountains from all windows. Matrei night life is limited (probably nearly non-existent) but there are several grocery stores and other necessities easily accessible. The accommodation itself is a house where the owner lives downstairs and the upstairs is rented out for travellers. Upstairs and downstairs are separated by a staircase which ensures privacy. Doors to the guest facilities can be locked. There are three spacious bedrooms, a combined shower/toilet, another separate toilet, and a well equipped but not huge kitchen/living room area. All furniture, hardware, utensils, etc are of very good quality and in great condition. There is a Jura coffee machine but no microwave oven. There is a dishwasher but no washing machine. For the added rural touch, there is a barn with some sheep at the property. The owners are a nice, friendly couple and the dealings with them were all very pleasant. The skiing in Matrei itself is a bit limited but all major Tirolian ski resorts are easily accessible by car with one to two hours drive. Access to Matrei from the Austrian side is through a tunnel for which one has to pay but for a stay of any length, a season pass is recommended. It can be bought on the spot (at least in Jan. 2022 it could) so there is no need to make advance arrangements. The ski resorts at the Italian side are also easily accessible and highly recommended. Overall, the stay was fantastic and we did really enjoy the accommodation. I would have no hesitation booking again. If looking for a busy town with a plenty of action then Matrei may not be the place but for a quiet stay when preferring to do one's own cooking instead of eating out, I couldn't recommend the place more highly.
