Looks nice from Outside, plus great area for hiking. Opens 30.03 to end of October only.

The worst host. To bad: nice place, bad management. Update: Well, I think people can get an idea of what "worst host" and "poor management" means with the answer to my review (and some other reviews below). And just to add a bit more information to provide some context: Yes, we went out of opening hours to show it to our 12-year-old niece who is visiting us from Chile (so yes, the first real castle not from a history book). Well, we had not even planned to go in, but as there was a car parked outside, my wife stepped on the bridge to ask, at the same time our niece was taking a photo of the castle, and actually she was more than 20 meters away from the entrance, when they started screaming (in a very unfriendly way for us as adults, you can make your idea for a child seeing her first castle) at her that "she should not be taking pictures of him"... of course, this was the end of our tour, and we did not invest more time seeing it. Make up your own mind... but as you can also read in other comments, the mood of the day of the person in charge is as random as the weather, and like us, it can affect your experience and that of your children. PD: Our 4-year-old did not understand what was wrong with this person, and fortunately our 1-year-old did not even care, but yes, one of our dogs (a 13-year-old one) was not happy about it. PD2: By the way, the castle looks much nicer from the outside and from a distance... just a tip ;)

Nice renovated castle in the hills outside Vienna, however it is a 40-minute walk uphill from the parking! Although there is coffee and cakes in the dining hall.

A small castle where the very sympathetic owner shows how he lives there in an authentic setting. Beautiful views and a nice terrace with drinks, sausages or Strudel.

It is a really nice place if you like the castles and the nature. Unfortunately the owner wasn't in his best mood during our visit (probably because of the rain), but the castle is nice and there is a great view from the tower (you can see the whole valley) I recommend to use the "train", which is a great adventure :D :D This train was one of the best part of our trip :D
