Description of the home we are offering for exchange
Our ecological house is an idyllic situated old farmhouse combined with a modern extension. It offers a lot space, cosy seating areas and you can watch the fire in the central stove. Surrounded by woods, meadows and cornfields you can breath the nature. You will surely enjoy our garden, which we have planted with a lot of love. You will find different types of flowers, trees, fruits and vegetables - which can be consumed during your stay. Relax in our parklike garden near to the small pond or under the oak and enjoy the twittering of the birds and the silence. Have fun with your kids playing soccer or badminton on the lawn and let the evening comfortable end with a barbecue on the terrace after beeing in the sauna or in the steam bath. You ca also make your own pizza or grill indoor in our oven.
