AUSTRIA Culinary delights take centre stage at Genießerhotel Die Forelle, an Austrian hotel on Lake Weissensee that has recently won an award for its delicious food. Hotel owner and head chef Hannes Müller focuses on self-sufficiency, which means that all food comes from the region. The kitchen team also places great importance on seasonal cooking and only uses products that are currently growing or have been preserved in their own kitchen. In addition to the culinary delights, the Genießerhotel Die Forelle offers a charming wellness area and breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside.

SWITZERLAND This winter, StayOne has teamed up with private jet partner PrivateFly to provide the ultimate alpine adventure. The experience includes snow-table dining at a secret mountain location, discovering Verbier’s breathtaking landscape with a guided snowshoe walking day, or you can elevate the experience further with a panoramic helicopter flight of the mountains. Minutes from the slopes and commanding uninterrupted views towards the Mont Blanc Massif, Verbier: Chalet 2 is a picture-perfect setting that promises the ideal getaway. A large open meadow sits in front of the home, offering a playground for sledging and hours of snow-filled fun, while the chalet has an outdoor hot tub, a sun deck, and al fresco dining space. The 350 square metres of the chalet are eco-friendly, thanks to state-of-the-art wood pellets and the solar-powered heating and ventilation systems.
