A great short stay

The location is beautiful, check in and out we’re very easy. The hosts excellent and informative. There are so many cycle routes in the local area we could have stayed for weeks to explore them all. The property is spacious and very well equipped. The view from the deck is lovely. Overall a very pleasant stay.

Hallo, alles top sauber. Der Vermieter ist Super freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Haus ist liebevoll eingerichtet und sehr gemütlich. Wir haben uns sehr gut erholt und gut geschlafen. Der Blick vom großen Balkon war bezaubernd. Leider kann man nicht in den Garten, wegen der Hühner und Katzen. Aber sonst alles hervorragend. Wir kommen wieder. LG Gundel

Obersteinbach ist eine Reise wert

Wir sind von den Eigentümern sehr freundlich empfangen worden. Wir waren überrascht und begeistert von diesem gemütlichen Haus. Hervorheben muss man die komplett eingerichtete Küche ! Bisher hatten wir das in dem Umfang nicht erfahren. Zu spät haben wir entdeckt dass dieser Ort Obersteinbach eine eigene Quelle mit sehr gutem Wasser für die Versorgung der Häuser hat. Wir hätten den Sodastream genutzt statt Wasser zu kaufen. Das nur wenige Meter entfernte Restaurant Anthon mussten wir trotz unseres nicht so langen Aufenthalts zwei Mal besuchen. Danke für Tips und Gespräche an Frau Jung. On reviendra certainement!

Mooie plek om tot rust te komen

Zeer mooie woning in 'loftstyle'. Prachtig uitzicht vanop het ruime terras. Alles was aanwezig in de woning. De eigenaars die in het huis ernaast wonen zijn zeer gastvrij en supervriendelijk. Deze woning is een goede uitvalsbasis om van daaruit mooie wandelingen te doen. Goed om te weten : er komt dagelijks (behalve op vrijdag en zondag) een bakker langs. Op vrijdagavond een beenhouwer. Zeker een woning om nog eens terug te keren. Onze labrador was ook zeer tevreden :-)

Süße Unterkunft mit Charme in traumhafter Umgebung

Wir waren als Familie zu fünft in diesem urigen kleinen Häuschen und haben die Zeit sehr genossen! Die Vermieter wohnen direkt im Häuschen nebenan und sind sehr freundlich, aufmerksam und entspannt, man fühlt sich sehr wohl bei ihnen. Auf der Terrasse kann man wunderschön sitzen und in den großen Garten sowie das dahinterliegenden Wiesental schauen. Auch im Garten durften wir uns aufhalten und unter einem großen schattenspendenden Nussbaum Kaffee trinken. Ein Traum! :) Unsere Hündin war ebenfalls erwünscht, da viele Katzen in der Gegend wohnen, ist die Terrasse mit einem Gitter ausgestattet, sodass der Hund nicht auf Katzenjagd gehen kann. Im Garten hatten wir sie dann an der Leine und alles war entspannt. Es gibt kein separates Schlafzimmer, da wir jedoch kein Problem damit hatten im gleichen Raum zu schlafen, war das kein Problem für uns. Wer sich einmal eine Auszeit vom Alltag nehmen möchte und einfach mal runterkommen mag, ist in Obersteinbach bei Margot genau richtig - es ist so ruhig dort, man hört nachts sogar die Pferde schnarchen. ;) Immer wieder gerne!

Wundervoll

Herrliches Häuschen in traumhafter Lage. Der Einrichtungsstil ist liebevoll eigenwillig und entspricht absolut unserem Geschmack. Alles sehr sauber und msn findet in der Wohnung alles, was man für den täglichen Bedarf braucht. Der Ausblick ist traumhaft, das Dörfchen angenehm ruhig. Das Vermieterehepaar ist sehr nett und zuvorkommend. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und kommen gerne wieder.
