Magical place
A beautiful little cottage loaded with vines in the stunning countryside of Kopolcs. Everything you need for an enjoyable stay is there in the cottage which is close to amazing towns, one nicer than another. Veszprém is absolutely beautiful as is Sümeg castle, we stayed for 1 week but could have stayed longer. The weather in September is amazing. Thanks to our wonderful hosts Latszo & Linda who were extremely hospitable, bringing us goodies from their garden. I can’t forget Gaby who was there always when we needed her with her amazing knowledge of Hungary. We will be back!!

Highly recommend this place. Hosts are the best. Overall view and cottage are superb.
This property is perfect. Exactly as presented. Superb view of the village and fruit trees on the yard. Wonderful deck outside for dining or just taking in the surrounding. Listen to the birds or church bells and enjoy a glass of wine. The hosts are very responsive and helpful in every way. Highly recommend this place to release your stress. Small grocer in the village but you have to drive to another town to find a restaurant.

Cosy cottage
We spent two weeks at the cottage and did enjoy our stay very much. We particularly liked the location in the picturesque village Kapolcs. The cottage is clean, has a good size for two people and is equipped with marvellous antique furnitures. The breakfast we enjoyed in the wonderful big garden. We also found very useful that there is a washing machine. The owner was always very nice and helpful. All in all we had a wonderful holiday!!

Kapolcs Cottage Country Estate of former Chicagoans.

Once, we would have been entertained by the idea that the very urban Linda and László Kondor would be living in Kapolcs Cottage, a countryside estate in Hungary. We had lived, loved and worked for decades in Chicago Illinois, but late 1997 found us doing exactly that and walking away from all we owned and settling permanently overseas - one house at a time.

It seems my husband and I are a bit nomadic and share a restless twinge to experience a lifestyle shakeup - every ten years or so. After a decade of happily living in a Bauhaus penthouse in the exquisite city of Budapest, a romantic getaway to Hungary’s Northern Balaton Region turned out to be the next chapter of our rather artistic, eclectic, lives. Summer of 2007 found us on-the-move again. László, my Hungarian-born-American husband, former photographer to Chicago’s late Mayor Richard J. Daley, intuitively found his way home to the Hungarian countryside, and after a resurrection of a shattered country house, settled in with wife & dogs to manage a holiday cottage.

Why they chose this property

Discovering this 200 year farmhouse & even older stone cottage on a vineyard estate, rumoured to be built on the former site of a medieval monastery, stole our romantic hearts. We fell completely in love. On the spot we decided to leave the bustling city and move into an environment where the beauty of nature is all around. We bought the ruin of a property, with approx. 2 1/2 acres / 3,800 Sm of overgrown weed-chocked garden. It took a lot of exhausting coming and going and we certainly had moments when we questioned our sanity, but there was no going back as we were completely seduced by to the exhilarating views. The cottage sits on a summit that overlooks the red-tiled roofs of Kapolcs Village. The village itself lies in a green valley on the edge of the Upper Balaton Region National Park, a nature preserve. This beautiful region is rightly called - the Hungarian Tuscany.

What makes this property unique

The joy (and simultaneous terror) on approaching such a restoration project - mixing the past and present - creating a modern home and holiday guest cottage in such a beautiful setting, was intimidating. Years before we had bought a design book, a sort of dream book that became our visual inspiration. Designer Tricia Guild’s gorgeously restored Italian Tuscan farmhouse is showcased in her book, COUNTRY COLOR. A must-see for anyone considering what can be done in restoring a country house. We practically slept with this book! We went to our first meeting with Erika Pécsi, our local genius designer with book in hand, and were delighted when she came up with her own copy.
