Nicole B. from Kamen
Great house, we had a nice vacation.
We were there for the first time and I have to say it was amazing. The holiday home is beautiful, very well furnished, and nothing was missing. The town can be easily reached on foot. There are also many opportunities nearby for hiking or just walking the dog. We were there for 12 days and had a very nice time. The highlight was the pool and the sauna. The foosball tournaments were also a lot of fun. We would love to rent the house again.

Great short vacation
We were on a short family vacation for a few days, and it was a nice stay, of course with the highlight being the large pool. The house was super spacious, clean, plenty of room for everyone (stay for 9 people with a small dog), and everything was available for our children (a cabinet with games, foosball table, and much more). The pool and the sauna were a dream and were used a lot; you don’t get that every day. The house was equipped with everything you need, and there were free parking spaces for about 4 cars. The only downsides were minor signs of wear such as 1-2 windows that didn't open properly, a sink that was not usable, or for me personally, insufficient light sources. But these are not significant issues. Wernigerode is easily reachable on foot, and the surrounding sights or hikes are quickly accessible by car.
So don't hesitate to go - it's worth it. We would definitely recommend this accommodation and say thank you for a few lovely days of relaxation.
