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

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

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 ensures 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 accommodate up to eight people for breakfast.

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

The approx. 1000 m² property is well separated from the neighborhood thanks to its garden landscape with hedges and bushes. Fountains, loungers and several seating areas invite you to relax and unwind on sunny afternoons.

The largely untouched nature, which presents itself in the form of meadows, fields and the Wadden Sea of Archsum, is a real dream for walkers, cyclists and nature lovers. Cycling tours through the idyllic heathland and long bathing days on the wide sandy beaches of Sylt are just some of the many leisure activities you can enjoy here. Especially in spring and fall, numerous species of geese and other birds can be observed in the wet meadows.

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 interior with antique furniture and modern accents gives 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 dunes creates the ideal ambience for a relaxing vacation

My name is Tereza, I am an architect and I live in Berlin with my husband and our two children. 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.

I've spent most of my vacations on Sylt for as long as I can remember. Over the years, the house and the island itself have become like a second home for me and my family.

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