Welcome to Haus Sonnenstrahl! We are the Lochmans family and have been living in the beautiful town of Kötschach since 2022. We moved here from the west of the Netherlands, seeking peace, a friendly atmosphere, and the wonderful climate of this region. It is very important to us that our guests feel welcome and at home in our apartment. We hope you will enjoy the relaxed and warm atmosphere as much as we do and have a memorable and enjoyable holiday. We look forward to welcoming you to Haus Sonnenstrahl!
