Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
Our home lies on a hill, surrounded by trees, and bird song. After 3 minutes walking we are in the black forest and within 10 minutes in the centre of Emmendingen a small but lively market town. Our guests especially enjoy the private grounds, a private 12m pool and wood fire sauna. After the sauna we tend to relax in the conservatory, looking out over the forest.

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home
Apart from the joys of the black forest offering Nature and sport, we are a short drive from Europa park, the lively picturesque student town Freiburg. France and Switzerland are a 1 hour drive away. The many attractions in Basel and Strassbourg are perfect for a daytrip. There are several concert houses as well as museums for all tastes. There are several Thermal baths close by, including Freiburg, and the famous baths at Baden Baden and Badenweiler as well as several open air pools. The area is well known for good food, with many local markets suppling top restaurants with top quality fresh local products. .

Our home exchange - here are our Preferences and House Rules
We prefer a peaceful location, near water with possible water activities. Yan and Robin are both fairly active and need to be able to move around. Walking, bike riding, sports centre are all good. We are tied to school holidays so only offered dates or weekends can be taken. Please note we have 2 cats, they are easy to care for and love to be stroked, you may even want to take them home with you.
