Cozy apartment with a balcony

"Alte Schmiede" Vacation Farm, Pure country charm for all nature lovers, families, and cycling and hiking enthusiasts. You’ll find our vacation farm quietly situated on the outskirts of the small village of Birkach, overlooking meadows and forests in the heart of the Haßberge Nature Park in the German Burgenwinkel region, between the cultural cities of Bamberg, Coburg, and Schweinfurt. Discover mystical castles and ruins, hidden little swimming lakes, and tranquil half-timbered towns along winding hiking trails and varied bike paths. Or relax in the area’s thermal baths. Whether you’re traveling as a family or as a couple, we have the perfect vacation rental for you. Our “outdoors”—a bit wild and untamed—will delight you! Whether you’re stargazing by the campfire, letting off steam on our soccer field or the giant trampoline, or playing foosball in the garden shed, we’ve got plenty of space for you! And all of this almost right in the middle of nature! We also have an electric car charging station in the yard, storage space for e-bikes, and always a few “insider tips” for our favorite hikes and bike rides right on our doorstep. Our apartment offers compact yet spacious living. With a fully equipped kitchenette—visually separated from the rest of the room by a breakfast bar—you’ll find everything you need for a relaxing vacation. Let yourself be enchanted by the view of the heron in the morning or the sunset over the meadows in the evening from the balcony! A 50% deposit may be charged after booking.
