A little rest at Schloss Obermayerhofen

img_7051

After our journey of two taxis, two trains and a bus we arrived at Schloss Obermayerhofen in the rather quiet Austrian countryside.

img_7150We are here for Mummy’s friends, Sylvia and Markus’ wedding tomorrow.  img_7052It is set in a castle dating from the 12th century. 
img_7042There are only two rooms that are dog-friendly. They’re in a house just next to the castle. img_7021There’s a very big door leading into our roomimg_7159The room has direct access to the gardens img_7162so that is rather helpful. img_7015It’s partly fenced in so Mummy just lets me out – and I do what I have toimg_7016 And explore a littleimg_7017 And then checking in on Mummy as she sits typing away.img_7018I wonder if she’s ever going to get off her computer and take a walk with me.
img_7019I’ll sit and look at the trees and the skies and listen to new sounds.img_7165Finally! Mummy stood up and said the magic word, “Walkies?”  Yes! I’ve been waiting.

We went to discover the grounds around the castle.img_7177Bridges to crossimg_7034

 

And checked out the building as well.img_7013 A lot of stairs and huge columnsimg_7009Arches img_7158 And more stairsimg_7160 And in the courtyard we found cupid – I guess his role is to shoot his love arrows at all the couples being wed at this venue.img_7044The other guests are arriving throughout the day.  The first event will take place this evening but we needed a little kip from all that travelling. img_7014 More later …

May’s comment: Schloss Obermayerhofen is in the picturesque hilly landscape of the Styrian spa region.  It is owned by the Count Kottulinsky family. A venue for lots of weddings.
