Location & area
Kaliste is a small village in the central south of the Czech Republic, just under the highest peak of the Bohemia-Moravia highlands, Javorice.(837m) The village has a local shop for all necessities, and a pub. Nearest small town is Pocatky (5km west) for shops, bank/cash machine, clinic, restaurants etc, even a delightful museum. Jihlava (25 mins by car NE) is the main district town, with all amenities, including 24 hour TESCO hypermarket, zoo, aquapark, hospital etc.
The house is adjacent to a 40 sq km protected forest, off-limits to cars, which offers hiking and biking trails, blueberries to pick, castle ruins and rock formations to explore. There is a lovely natural lake to swim in 5 mins by car to the north, set among fields just before Nova Ves. Within 30 mins drive are romantic Rostejn castle, Telc, Jindrichuv Hradec towns and chateaux as well as Cervena Lhota chateau, and many other historic towns and castles slightly further afield. The whole area is perfect for an envigorating rest 'far from the madding crowd'.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.
