This lovingly restored thatched cottage from 1860 is located amid the gently rolling hills of Holstein Switzerland – a place where history comes alive and everyday life fades into the distance.
As soon as you enter, you are greeted by the spacious hallway with its 3-meter-high ceiling. Original iron fittings, old half-timbered beams, and warm wooden floorboards tell of times gone by, while the kitchen, modernized in 2021, and the cozy living room with its wood-burning stove offer modern comforts. Three comfortable bedrooms can accommodate up to seven adults – ideal for families or small groups.
From the kitchen, you have direct access to the sunny terrace, where historic granite stones crunch underfoot and the view extends over the extensive hillside property to the babbling brook. Here, you are accompanied by birdsong and the rustling of leaves – television becomes superfluous.
The natural garden borders a pasture where horses from a neighboring Demeter farm graze peacefully. Directly behind the house is an extensive mixed beech forest – perfect for long walks, quiet moments, and deep breaths.
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 usually varies between €0 and €4 per adult per night, but may be 5% in certain areas, such as Berlin. It should be settled with the host upon arrival.

Sun terrace with a view of the countryside, right next to a babbling brook on an idyllic hillside property
Numerous cycling and hiking trails lead through hilly landscapes and to hidden swimming lakes
Nestled in the natural surroundings of Holstein Switzerland – with horse pastures, forests, and sweeping views right on your doorstep
We are a couple of doctors and live with our children on the Alster in Hamburg, where we enjoy urban mobility by bike. This makes us appreciate the contrast and tranquility that our vacation home in the countryside offers all the more.

Beautiful historic cottage, carefully restored with beams and old doors, but with modern conveniences such as partial underfloor heating. Good layout.
Fantastic old garden with cozy nooks, trampoline, zip line and swing, hills and forest.
Great opportunities for walks in the woods and charming towns.
