    On the day we arrived, Birgit gave us a really warm welcome. After a brief orientation, we set everything up at a leisurely pace. We traveled there with our trailer. Once everything was set up, Birgit helped us check in. The grounds are truly beautiful and perfect for unwinding—an absolute dream spot. Not only were the Nadus a highlight, but so were the many wild animals in the park. There’s always something new to discover. Birgit hosted a little tasting session for us. There were quite a few items that were really interesting and incredibly delicious. The “Tannenspitz” fruit spread and the spelt-and-nandu pasta, in particular, are absolutely divine. Everything sold in the farm shop is lovingly handmade by Birgit herself. They also offer delicious drinks. The mirabelle plum cocktail, in particular, comes highly recommended. We’ll definitely be coming back again and again from now on. Thank you so much for the wonderful stay

    We especially liked the quiet location and some of the lovingly designed corners, which invite you to relax. At the same time, we got the impression that there’s still room for improvement in some areas. Some parts still seem a bit unfinished and could become much more inviting with a little more care and attention to detail. What stood out to us the most, however, were the many rats that were out and about, especially in the evening. Unfortunately, this significantly detracted from our cozy get-togethers and left us feeling uneasy.

    We spent a weekend staying with Birgit and felt completely at home. Our campsite, with a view of one of the many lakes, helped us relax right away. A great starting point for bike rides. Birgit has lovingly landscaped the garden, and it’s perfect for exploring. There are wonderful things to discover everywhere! Thanks for helping us slow down ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ stars
