About this property

Family friendly farm with saltwater pool and horses

The farm is 45 minutes from Brno Airport. It is secluded at the end of the road and so is quiet with no passing traffic. It sits in a commanding position on the side of a hill overlooking the village of Vrtezir. The main house has 4 bedrooms, a modern kitchen with an open dining room and living room. There is 1 bathroom and 2 separate WC's.

The 3x8m pool has a saltwater system that is gentler on your skin and eyes and without the harshness of traditional chlorine pools. There is a large deck around the pool and the roof will be installed in Aug 2021. The pool is for the use of the two rental units at Keppler Farm and private access can be arranged at a supplemental rate.

Behind the farm house is a horse shoe arrangement of barns and stables with a small cottage attached separated by a 6ft fence for privacy. The farm is fully accredited as a Bio farm. It is surrounded by orchards of Apple, Pear, Plum and Cherry all of which give a supply of fresh fruit during the season. Cider is made on the property. There are also horses for hire for riding upon request. The next door farm has a small herd of cows and is otherwise all arable.
Keppler farm is renovated and was acquired in 2010 by a young Englishman from London.
All bed linens and house towels are provided.

This area of the Czech Highlands is very beautiful. Vrtezir is 1 mile from the village of Stepanov nad Svratkou which has a pub/hotel, a post office, supermarket, pharmacy and a general store. For comprehensive shopping Bystrice nad Pernstejnem is 5 miles away and has banks and everything that you need.
Pernstejnem Castle in Nedvedice is about 4 miles distant and is well worth a day trip, Horse riding is available at the farm at 450kc per hour.
The town of Jhilava is 40 minutes distant and is an old walled city and well worth a visit with its medieval buildings and a pleasant zoo. Zdar nad Sazavou is 25 minutes distant with its Unesco Santini Church and Kinsky Castle. 40 minutes in the opposite direction is the city of Brno which has a myriad of attractions. Prague is a 2 hr drive to the North, and Vienna a 2.5hr drive to the South
Both Nedvedice and Bystrice have a good railway service with trains to Bro central then to Vienna and Zdar/Prague. Brno has an airport served by Ryan Air and by Whizz Air to London Luton and Stansted and Einhoven in the Netherlands.
Bystrice has a large modern open air swimming pool complex along with tennis courts etc.
The tennis court in the village is clay and can be used at any time.
A car is a must and the property is not wheelchair friendly.

Geweldige vakantie
Met onze vier kinderen (9-16 jaar) hebben we een geweldige vakantie gehad in Vrtezir. Het huis is fijn en comfortabel. Ook bij minder mooi weer waren er voldoende mogelijkheden om ons te vermaken. De omgeving is prachtig, rustig met veel mogelijkheden voor een uitje of wandeling. De eigenaars zijn vriendelijk en behulpzaam, als goede buren. De kinderen hebben veel geleerd van de eigenaar die met passie vertelt over de natuur, bomen, paarden en omgeving. Het zwembad is heerlijk op warmere dagen en met het dak erover ook op minder mooie dagen. Kortom, wij hebben genoten!

We had a very pleasant stay. The house is cosy and well equipped. Friendly and helpful owners and a sweet dog. Nice swimming pool which we used after our trips in the surrounding area. We highly recommend Keppler Farm!

About the host

Hosted by Huck Keppler

Host profile image
Huck and Klara have lived together at the farm for the last seven years, continually maintaining and improving the land and buildings. Our professional lives sometimes take us away but we're always happy to come back and enjoy our lives at the farm.

Why they chose this property

We are organic in our approach and are surrounded by beautiful countryside and forests. If you take a walk around the land you are guaranteed to see a plethora of wildlife. But a 45 minute drive to Brno brings you all the benefits a big modern city.
