Paretz an der Havel near Ketzin is a historic village with only 400 inhabitants. Nestled in the pristine river landscape of the Havel, you can encounter flocks of wild geese and cranes here. Vast nature parks, meadows and fields offer unique nature experiences - on foot, by bike or by canoe and kayak.
Anette and Bernd's 80 m² vacation home is located in the middle of this idyllic landscape and is characterized in particular by its atmosphere and sustainable construction: walls and roof made of natural bricks, roof insulation with mineral wool, wooden windows with thermal glass and underfloor heating ensure pleasant temperatures at any time of year. Natural floors of polished Solnhofen tiles, oiled wooden parquet flooring and natural-colored walls with original paintings by Anette give the house its individual flair.
On the first floor, a spacious living room with a fully equipped kitchen invites you to enjoy convivial cooking evenings. The upper floor has a large bedroom with a double bed and another smaller room with two single beds. Here you can enjoy the almost endless expanse of the surrounding landscape as you look through the windows in the morning.
The outdoor area has three outdoor seating areas. Follow the position of the sun from east to south - with a coffee in the morning at sunrise on the east side, with a book in the afternoon on the south side and a glass of wine at sunset on the west side.
If you long for culture and adventure, you can reach the major cities of Berlin and Potsdam by car in just 30 minutes. Public transport is also within walking distance of the house and will take you to the metropolitan region at least as quickly as by car.
The price shown corresponds to the number of 4 guests. If you are traveling with only two guests, please discuss this directly with the hosts.
Tourism Fee not included

Highlights from Anette & Bernd
Host since April 2023
Three outdoor seating areas invite you to soak up the sun all day long - from the first coffee in the morning until dusk
Natural-colored walls with paintings by the hostess Anette give the house its individual charm
Idyllic countryside and proximity to the city make this vacation home particularly attractive
Anette and Bernd are your hosts in our sustainably built vacation home - within walking distance of the wonderfully idyllic, very clean and still very original river - the "Havel". For many years they have been freelancing here, where their guests spend their vacations: in their country house Arcadia in the historic, early classicist Paretz on the Havel dating from 1797. Their country house offers space for Anette's studio for art and healing as well as the first vacation home from 2012, the maisonette vacation apartment. This was followed by the independent, newly built guest and vacation home in 2019. They love the Havelland region with its natural and almost untouched landscape and diverse experiences: on foot, by bike, by boat. Nevertheless, the location is within easy reach of the cities of Berlin, Potsdam and Brandenburg an der Havel. By bus and train in 60 minutes to Berlin Central Station / City - or by car, often in just 60 minutes. Parking could take up additional time. The day ticket for the metropolitan region of Berlin costs only 10 euros.
