Cave Houses Near Eger
Just 9.3 miles from Eger, at the foot of the Bükk, three cave houses on a 2.47-acre site host 4-, 6-, and 9-bed apartments with bathrooms, toilets, hot water, underfloor heating, and kitchens. Each yard has its own terrace plus grilling and cauldron cooking options.
Wine, Cellars, and Feasts
The Nagy family winery, founded in 2001, is based in Szomolya on the eastern edge of the Eger Wine Region, with vineyards, a cellar, and sales under family care. Another family cellar here praises a terroir they call the Creator’s Palm. Year-round by appointment: cellar tours with tastings, oven-fired wine-and-food menus, a spectacle-style fattened-pig program, wine snacks, unlimited food and drink, and dinner shows featuring the region’s best wines.
Organizers reserve the right to change dates and programs.
