Penzion U Báby Šubrový

The house

The guesthouse is above the valley's old inn, in Kokořínský Důl, between sandstone walls and a walk from the castle. Downstairs, the hostinec; upstairs, the rooms and a large common room with a kitchen. There is a covered terrace with a barbecue, a fire in the garden at night and a closed courtyard for leaving bikes.

The rooms

Fourteen rooms and apartments, for around fifty people: doubles, triples and quadruples with a bunk bed, most with their own bathroom and some with a shared one; a two-bedroom apartment with a kitchen; a duplex for ten with a balcony and terrace; and a step-free apartment for three. There is no wifi: there is barely any coverage in the valley, and the house says so plainly.

Getting there

By car, about 50 minutes from Prague via Mělník. Without a car, via Mělník and the Mšeno train or the valley bus. The castle is a walk through the forest away.
