Visitor Reviews of Lofer
Bob & Daphne Charman from Australia writes:
We come to Lofer every couple of years. Friends from U.S.A. Canada,Scotland, Germany and Holland join us at Villa-Egger with Hosts Seppi Farbinger and his neice Claudia Pfeiffenberger. I guarantee you will love this accommodation. The skiing is twice as good as Australia and is half the price.
