8 / 10Excellent·Aug 2024
We had a good time in the house. Everything you need is present.
The house is characteristic and the bedrooms and bathrooms are clean.
We spent several mornings and evenings under the tree for breakfast or dinner (barbecue). Be sure to bring insect spray (if you stay in august). We also had a electric racket to keep insects off, which worked perfect.
The area is nice to explore. You can go for a walk, visit the Chech Republic (Marienbad is beautiful!!) or just go to a nearby lake. Just follow the tips of the owner in the house information.

We had a lovley stay at the Bauenrhaus. Also in wintertime you can do many things around. Specially the Kachelofen gives a warm atmosphere and invites you to chill out.
10 / 10Outstanding·Aug 2018
Our family of 5 (2 x parents, and 3 x teens aged 18, 17 and 12) enjoyed staying in this lovely original farmhouse very much. Space is important to us, and here there was more than enough bedrooms for each of the children to have a room each, plus one spare. Downstairs the big communal kitchen diner was perfect for family meals and games. The whole house was very clean and tidy, and lovely and cool, and everything you might need both worked and was provided in the kitchen which was ideal for us as we self-catered every day. The rear garden was a great retreat, and we used the bikes for a fun day out on the numerous safe cycle paths around. The owners provide a very comprehensive and useful guide of what to do in the area, and we used this constantly throughout our stay as everything suggested lived up to expectations! There is no wifi at the property, which within a day or so was a blessing in disguise as we had way more family time as a result! Communication with the owner prior to the trip was excellent, a good personal service, and even some flexibility around our arrival times etc which was most welcomed.
I would very much recommend this property as great value for money, especially for larger families.
