Family holidays in Upper Bavaria: tips for children from Königsdorf

The wooden chalet for families

Our wooden chalet was built for families: two bedrooms each with a double bed, a play and reading gallery under the roof, a fully equipped kitchen and a sheltered south-facing terrace. The garden has room to run around and a small pond – please keep an eye on small children there. If grandparents or friends are coming along, you can also book the apartment next door.
