On the island of Sylt, between flowering meadows and not far from the wide dune landscape, in the small village of Archsum lies the 300-year-old captain's house of Tereza. It is one of the oldest houses in the village and captivates with its thatched roof and original Frisian charm.

The stylish interior is a mix of antique furniture with lovingly placed modern touches.

The house has a light-flooded living room with a large dining table and a fully equipped kitchen. A fireplace room with a large sofa provides cozy warmth and cozy hours in convivial company even in the colder seasons. A special highlight is the captain's room with antique desk and alcove bed. The bright gallery room with dining table and piano can seat up to eight people for breakfast.

There are three bedrooms, each with a double bed, and one bedroom with two single beds. Four bathrooms as well as a separate toilet offer enough space and privacy for a large family or groups of friends.

The approx. 1000 m² property is well demarcated from the neighborhood thanks to its garden landscape with hedges and bushes. Fountains, sunbeds and several sitting areas invite you to rest and relax on sunny afternoons.

The largely untouched nature, which presents itself in the form of meadows, fields and the Wadden Sea of Archsum, is a true dream for walkers, cyclists and nature lovers. Bicycle tours through the idyllic heath landscape and extended bathing days on the wide sandy beaches of Sylt are just a few of the many leisure activities you can pursue here. Especially in spring and autumn, numerous species of geese and other birds can be observed in the wetlands.

Tourism Fee not included

A Tourism Fee is a mandatory fee that you have to pay when visiting certain tourism areas in Germany. The fee is not included in the price because it depends on where you stay, how many nights you stay, how old you are and if you’re bringing your dog. The fee varies between €0 and €4 per adult per night and should be settled with the host upon arrival.

Highlights from Tereza

Host since April 2023

  • The stylish furnishings of antique furniture as well as modern accents give the house its unmistakable Frisian charm
  • The numerous retreats in the house offer space for young and old to play and relax
  • The idyllic location between flowering meadows and not far from the dune landscape creates the ideal ambience for relaxing vacations

My name is Tereza, I am an architect and live with my husband and our two children in Berlin. Our vacation home on the island of Sylt has been in our family for over 20 years. My mother discovered the house back then and restored it with a lot of love.

Since I can remember, I spend a large part of my vacations on Sylt. The house and the island itself have become like a second home to me and my family over the years.

Unfortunately, we are able to spend far too little time on the island, so we decided to rent out our house to guests in order to share this wonderful place with like-minded people. We ourselves travel a lot and with pleasure and therefore know how nice it is as a family to find a vacation home that is used by the owner himself and entrusted to guests.
