Ecological living space with sauna by the Elbe

You live in a space that breathes with you—hemp lime in the walls, lime screed underfoot, windows facing the garden. The living space flows into one another, the kitchen opens onto the dining table and terrace. Everything is close by, yet spacious. In winter, the underfloor heating keeps you warm, while in summer the thick walls keep you cool. A place for two.

The bed is tucked away behind a thick wall, with a view of the Romanesque main house. The bathroom is separate, housed in a wooden structure, with a floor-level shower. The materials are honest and ecologically chosen – noticeably different from the usual. The room gives you the feeling of walking directly from the garden into the house.

Outside, terraces and a garden await you, which is part of the living space. You can eat barefoot outdoors or at the large wooden table inside. Window sills invite you to linger, with a view of the greenery. The boundary between inside and outside becomes blurred – just as it should be. The communal sauna in the vaulted basement of the house is available daily from 12:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. and from 8:30 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. without reservation. Additional time slots can be arranged individually.

The Elbe is right on your doorstep. You can start early in the morning with a rental canoe, picnic on the beach, or enjoy the evening light on the dike. In Salzwedel, there are homemade cakes at Café Lämpel, exhibitions in the Salt Church, and the Elbe Cycle Route for road bike tours. The sauna in the old vault is open daily at fixed times.
