Hi Tony H,
Ref somewhere cheap betweeen 26th Dec and first week January....
Myself and two other girlies (I'm almost old enough to be mummy ...) have bagged a triple room at the Staffler for £180 each, half board. We're driving down on 27th for the week.
However, before now, i've travelled on my own and have met up with friends when I've arrived. I've telephoned Angela at the tourist office in Oberau beforehand and have booked a bed and breakfast direct with one of the many, friendly, very clean and can't-do-enough for you private householders or pension owners. These rooms can be had, for the week, for about £20 per person per night, breakfast incl. I can give you some tel numbers if you like, but am away until late Thursday. L.
