Organic farm in Franconian Switzerland on the Wiesent river

On our farm in Franconian Switzerland we have 2 - 3 pitches up to approx. 7 meters in length.

Tents on request, so that a meadow pitch is mowed.

Please let us know which vehicle you are coming with when booking.

Length, number of people, approximate time of arrival, so that I can estimate which pitch is suitable for you.

We also have a nice place in the front yard which is not always available.

There is no wooden hut here, but there is a seating area in the green and the toilet is closer.

You can also stand on the dirt road that we only use for haymaking.

At the top of the wooden hut, 3 campers can also stand together very well, but this is not bookable, but must be mentioned when booking, because I only put 3 together on request.

Electricity is available on site, water can be filled up whenever we are at home.

In the wooden hut next to the paved pitch there is a hut with seating and a simple kitchen

There is a composting toilet in the courtyard which can be used at any time.

Small amounts of dirty water from daily washing up can be disposed of in the house by arrangement.

Washing machine and showers are available on request for a fee.

Dry firewood can be purchased for the fire bowl.

There is seating in the courtyard where you can take a break and watch the animals.

Fresh eggs, honey, lamb and sausage can also be purchased!

If the garden has enough produce, you can also buy vegetables from the farm!

Occasionally I can also provide you with fresh, home-baked bread rolls.

The farm store sells organic unpackaged goods (muesli ingredients, pulses, pasta, spreads, ... )

Franconian Switzerland is great for hiking, climbing, mountain biking, canoeing, ...

A few meters behind our farm, which is located on the edge of the village, you can immediately start cycling on the cycle path.

In the next small town Hollfeld, 500 meters on the bike path, you can go for a nice meal, eat ice cream or go to the outdoor pool.

Here you can also stock up for your excursions at the butcher, bakery and supermarket.

A baker and a butcher's van come to the village on Tuesday lunchtimes.

There are many animals on our farm that you can pet and see.

Rabbits, chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys, cats and dogs

Most of the time there is also a small flock of sheep on the farm.

Children's bicycles, baby carriages, baby carriages and Kraxe are available for a small rental fee.

The playground with climbing tower is 50 meters away.

The Wiesent also runs along here and is still "small".

You can go to the jetty by the water and there is also a small rock around the corner.

We use the sheep's wool to make pellets for the garden and there is also loose wool that I will be happy to pack for you.

We are happy to arrange a guided tour of the farm and pasture for interested guests. Our sheep and goats are on interesting meadows and pastures from around mid-April to the end of November, where there is a lot to explore and explain. If possible, we incorporate this into our work routine and you can look over our shoulders, ask questions and explore the surroundings. On the farm from 2 persons, outside from 4 persons. Adult 7,- € Child 4 - 14 years 5,- €

The farm work continues all year round.

Once a year we have to load sheep at the pitch and once a year we have to unload sheep.

This is usually in April / May and in November for a few minutes.

In June / July we also come by with the small tractor for the hay harvest, which is certainly exciting for some.
