Stay at Terasy Sedlec
Planning several days in South Moravia?
Terasy Sedlec is a peaceful base between Mikulov, Valtice and Lednice. After a day out, return to Sedlec, relax in the garden or outdoor seating area and head in a different direction the next day.
One day trip is rarely enough. Stay a little longer.
From Sedlec, each day can take you somewhere different – into Pálava, the Lednice–Valtice landscape, local wine country or across the border into Austria.
