This is description I wrote on the CN site years ago (my wife thinks it's too "poetic")::
"Sung by poets, lauded by bards, revered by the cognoscenti, Château Novak, a sun-kissed architectural jewel precariously perched on the verdant slopes overlooking the slothful Berounka, demurely - but joyfully - awaits your visit. Higher than the ancient neogothic fort of Křivoklat (1 steep mile away), lower than the Cool Bohemia icon that is Velka Bukovas' sleek observation tower, Château Novak is a pearl whose fragrant, multicoloured garden is its' delicious oyster - come, tease it delicately open, and discover the nacred treasures that demurely await you."
Umm, actually it's a huge ex farm building that my wife (née Novak, thus the name ;-) and I have lovingly transformed and decorated over the past twenty years: It's of course not a château, but it's a large, rambling house with, on the ground floor, a comfortable living room, a vast (75 m²) game/meeting/event hall with a pool/ping-pong table and big-screen O/H projector, a fully-equipped kitchen, and a dining-room for 12 . The 7 bedrooms, each with its' own bathroom, are distributed among the two upper floors, and comfortably sleep 12 adults and four children. Of course there is (free) wifi. You will particularly enjoy the terraced garden, which features a BBQ as well as a Badmington/volleyball court: it offers a stunning view on the Berounka Valley (canoing!) and on the village of Krivoklat, famous for its' crenelated castle and deep forests (the whole area is in the process of being declared a National Park). The charming historical centers of Beroun and Rakovnik are just twenty minutes away, and it takes 40 minutes by car - through the forest and along the Berounka river - to reach the magnificent capital city of Prague, unless you prefer to visit Pilsen and it's celebrated brewery (there are many more smaller breweries a few miles away ;-). There are a small shop and a pub in our village, and a bigger shop and restaurants can be found four miles away in the valley, notably the very pleasant riverside "U Jezzu". Vaclav Havel Prague airport is an hour away. We look forward to your visit!
