Whispers of the Emme Gable House

In addition, the kitchenette is connected to the wet room via an equally steep internal staircase. The shower and toilet can also be easily reached via a covered external staircase. Ämmehof The gabled house was built in 1949 as an annex to the adjacent residential building at the Emmenhof. The Ämmehof has been able to retain the charm and character of that time and today presents itself as an inviting place of peace and cosiness. The Ämmehof invites you to linger in the garden, by the fire bowl, in the partial shade on the Emme or in the evening sun. And the children are frolicking on the giant swing (about 5 m high). The guests at the Ämmehof enjoy the Grander water and the low-radiation environment. Walk Enjoy the soothing splashing and rustling of the Emme, which is directly adjacent to the Ämmehof. And let your soul dangle during a walk along the Emme or during a trekking with our donkeys. The by no means stubborn gray animals lead you into a meditative walk, which is especially transmitted to children.
