Chalupa U lesa Overview
First Impressions
Chalupa U lesa sits tucked away in the tiny village of Vápenice, and honestly, you’d miss it if you weren’t looking for it. This three-star gem feels more like staying at a friend’s countryside retreat than a traditional hotel. The moment I pulled up, I knew this wasn’t going to be your typical accommodation — it’s got that authentic Czech cottage charm that you just can’t fake.
The Setting
The name literally translates to “cottage by the forest,” and they weren’t kidding around. You’re basically on the edge of proper wilderness here, with hiking trails starting right from the property. What struck me was how quiet it gets at night — I mean, dead silent except for the occasional owl. If you’re coming from Prague or Brno, it’s about a two-hour drive, but the route through the Moravian countryside is actually part of the experience.
The Room
My room had this cozy, cabin-like feel with wooden beams and traditional furnishings that felt genuine rather than touristy. The beds are proper comfortable, and there’s this little seating area by the window where I spent way too much time just watching the forest. You know what really impressed me? The attention to cleanliness and the fact that everything worked perfectly — sometimes these rustic places can be hit or miss with the basics.
Local Flavors
The on-site restaurant serves up hearty Czech mountain fare that’ll stick to your ribs in the best possible way. I had this incredible venison goulash that the owner told me was made with game from the local area. Breakfast is simple but fresh — homemade bread, local honey, and strong coffee that actually wakes you up. The portions are generous, which you’ll appreciate if you’re planning to tackle some of those forest trails.
Why Guests Love It
Look, this place has a 9.8 rating for good reason — it’s the kind of spot where everything just works smoothly. The staff genuinely care about making sure you’re comfortable, and they’re full of local knowledge about hiking routes and nearby attractions. There’s ample parking right on the property, which is a relief when you’re hauling gear for outdoor activities. What really sets Chalupa U lesa apart is how it manages to feel both remote and well-run at the same time. It’s perfect if you want to disconnect from city life without sacrificing comfort, and honestly, I’m already planning my next visit.

Guest Reviews
Vše super, poloha, okolí, paní domácí 😉 Dům byl vybavený vším potřebným.
Chalupa s výhodnou polohou na konci všech cest a na úplné samotě (společně s domem hostitelů) - přímé autobusy na Žítkovou i do okolí. Vybavení pokojů na velmi dobré úrovni, nic nám nechybělo. Ideální k prozkoumání Bílých Karpat.
Vše bylo super krásné prostředí , příjemní majitelé , hezké výlety do okolí , klidné místo na relax 👌
What could be improved: Není co vytknout
Kachlová krbová kamna, která krásně vytopí všechny místnosti, místo na stráni, krásné výhledy, hvězdné nebe, moc milí a vstřícní majitelé.
What could be improved: slabší internet
Úžasné místo a velice příjemná a dobře zařízená chalupa. Velmi milá paní domácí. Pobyt jsme si skvěle užili a rádi se zase někdy vrátíme.
Chalupa se nachází na kraji obce Vápenice, úplný klid.
Možnost krásných výletů na okolní kopce.
What could be improved: Při návštěvě nedaleké koliby na Slovensku nutno mít EUR v hotovosti.
Krásná lokalita, dům uprostřed luk s nádherným výhledem do okolí.
- naprosto výjimečné místo uprostřed přírody, přitom vám nebude nic chybět
- chata je skvěle vybavená
- pan i paní domácí jsou velmi ochotní
Krásna príroda a prostredie na dokonalý relax a čas s rodinou. Od prvého momentu keď nám majiteľka odovzdala kľúče sme sa cítili ako doma.
Všade naokolo stromy a pokoj.
Když si chci užít přírodu, volím odlehlejší místa o samotě bez lidí. Ubytování v malém hotelovém pokoji se vyhnu a hledám něco zajímavého na samotě. Chalupa u lesa splnila to, co jsem hledala. Paní majitelka, která bydlí vedle, chalupu postupně...
