During the pandemic we realized how lucky we are to live on a large property in nature. We wanted and want to share this happiness and are therefore looking forward to our 5th season as hosts!
What started in 2020 with a space and the opportunity to use a toilet has developed over the years into one of our favorite leisure activities - there are now 3 parking spaces and a converted trailer with great people, some of whom we now count as friends , to welcome!
In the beginning there was only the space and the toilet, but now we have electricity everywhere, various water connections and a solar shower outside, as well as a refrigerator, sink and cooking facilities in the house.
If you don't like dogs or are disturbed by the sounds of a cowshed or crowing roosters, you'll probably be happier somewhere else. If you're traveling in a group or want to party loudly, that's certainly the case.
If, on the other hand, you want to park a motorhome, caravan, tent, roof tent or folding tent in a lively farming community in the cultural landscape of Lower Saxony and relax for a few days, this is the right place for you.
If you travel alone, you will find a really comfortable bed, chest of drawers, armchairs, a few books and no WiFi in the trailer, but lots of fresh air and relaxation.
Grilling, hiking or geocaching are always possible. You need a vehicle to visit the heated outdoor pool (open from May to September) or a grocery store. There is no public transport here, apart from the school bus.
We do not offer garbage disposal. Of course, the chickens are always happy about leftovers and coffee grounds are a great fertilizer. Black water can be discharged at one of the stations in the area.
On the weekends we often have a campfire or barbecue together. These are always nice opportunities to exchange ideas. We have already made many great memories with our guests!
We look forward to welcoming you. Since we all work or go to school, we can only welcome you from 4 p.m. on weekdays. On weekends we are more flexible and can also welcome you earlier. We therefore ask you to let us know in advance when you will approximately arrive so that we can ensure that someone is home.
Please plan your stay with us well in advance and book a few days in advance. Even if the system allows immediate booking on the same day, we would like to prepare for your visit and possibly take other dates into account.
