Here's the link. It's a bit difficult to find as the OP spelled superthread as two words.

In addition to that I would highly recommend seeing Zvihov and Orlik castles, south of Prague.

Telc is a very pretty town with a gorgeous town square.

Cesky Krumlov (which you will read lots about) is a really lovely place.

Cesky Raj (up north) has very interesting and beautiful scenery.

Very easy to drive to and navigate. Also inexpensive. You can easily stay in the CR for 50 euros for a double (pension or B&B).

Am I correct in assuming that you are planning to drive there from the UK? We have done this a couple of times, in the 90s to visit my father's family who live not too far from Ostrava. The first time we took 3 weeks and took in some of Gernany and Austria, en route. The second time we went a more direct route. Either way, it is quite a drive.

I have visited Telc and agree it is worth a visit but the area we have become familiar with is in Moravia, specifically the Beskydy mountains. It is a lovely area, with some great places to visit such as Stramberk - a pretty town with an old tower, Roznov - which has a fascinating open air museum with reconstructed village and Pustevny which has some lovely old wooden buildings up in the mountains and is a ski resort in winter.

See this site for information on the area:

I also came across the following site with accommodation across the Czech Republic:

Helo!!
You can find cheap and comfortable hotels near the city centre on http://www.a-prague.com. Itīs quick and easy site for online booking. I use it every time and I was never disappointed.
I traveled also to Ceske Budejovice- town in southern Bohemia near Cesky Krumlov. Ceske Budejovice is very nice place to visit. I stayed there also in a hotel and booked it through http://www.a-ceske-budejovice.com. I fully recommend these websites.

wish you a good stay in Czech Republic!!
