Description
From the outside still inconspicuous, the historic half-timbered house surprises inside with its cozy country house style. The former "Hirtenhäusla" has three lovingly furnished bedrooms, each with 2 beds. In the living room with a large corner couch, you can relax wonderfully. Thanks to the sofa's sleeping function, two additional guests have the possibility to stay overnight. For cooking together in the rustically designed kitchen, a 5-burner gas stove, an electric oven, and all important cooking utensils are available. The dining area is integrated into the open kitchen and, with its wood-burning stove, also serves as a lounge. The spacious bathroom with toilet has a walk-in shower. The three bedrooms on the upper floor have a room height of 2.0 m, which is somewhat lower than is usual today. In the small garden, there is a cozy terrace with a dining area right next to the house. The idyllic village of Freiröttenbach is a district of Schnaittach and is located at the gateway to Franconian Switzerland. It is an ideal starting point for excursions to Nuremberg or the Franconian surroundings.

Dreamlike "Shepherd's House"
We were allowed to spend our short vacation at the Meier family's dreamy shepherd's house.
Already upon entering the house for the first time, one could immediately see the love that the Meier family has put into it. The history of the shepherd's house is also very interesting, and one should definitely hear or read it.
You can easily chat with the landlords, who are truly kind-hearted people.
The apartment is fully equipped, and nothing is missing. I can only recommend the little house to anyone who wants to simply find peace.
As already mentioned... Dreamily beautiful!!!!

Anytime again
We had a wonderful vacation in the holiday home of the Meier family. We didn't miss anything and we would love to come back anytime. The little house is well thought out, spotlessly clean, and incredibly lovingly furnished.

Thank you for a wonderful short vacation.
Lovingly furnished, lots of small details to fall in love with, half-timbered and inviting coziness - all of this can be discovered in the Meier family's vacation house.
The first contact with the landlords was very warm and accommodating. The house offers a nice mixture of natural building materials, a modern style of furnishing, and small nostalgic or Bavarian decorative elements for feeling good and relaxing.
There is also a spacious terrace with privacy provided by trees and hedges, inviting holidaymakers to linger and take a break from everyday life.
Regensburg and Nuremberg are not far from the vacation accommodation and are highly recommended.
Thank you very much for the hospitality and warm welcome.
Best regards,
Solveig and Micha

«Holiday home Meier family» achieves a holiday rating of 5 (rating scale: 1 to 5) at 14 submitted reviews.
Schon bei dem ersten betreten des Häusle hat man die Liebe, welche Familie Meier in das Haus gesteckt hat, sofort gesehen. Auch die Geschichte des Hirtenhäusle ist sehr interessant und man sollte sie auf jeden Fall hören bzw. lesen.
Mit den Vermieter kann man gerne mal plaudern und sind wirklich Herzen von Menschen.
Die Wohnung ist voll ausgestattet und es fehlt an nichts. Ich kann das Häusle nur jeden empfehlen, wer mal einfach zur Ruhe kommen möchte.
Wie schon erwähnt….. Traumhaft schön!!!!
Ausflüge in den Tierpark nach Nürnberg oder in den Playmobil-Park sind mit dem Auto unproblematisch zu erreichen.
Das Häuschen ist durchdacht, blitzsauber und unheimlich liebevoll eingerichtet.
Bereits der erste Kontakt mit den Vermietern war sehr herzlich und zuvorkommend. Das Haus bietet eine schöne Mischung aus Naturbaumaterialien, einem modernen Einrichtungsstil und kleinen nostalgischen bzw. bayrischen Dekoelementen zum Wohlfühlen und Entspannen.
Auch eine großzügige Terrasse mit Sichtschutz durch Bäume und eine Hecke laden den Urlauber zum Verweilen und Durchatmen vom Alltag ein.
Regensburg und Nürnberg befinden sich nicht weit weg von der Ferienunterkunft und sind sehr empfehlenswert.
Vielen Dank für die Gastfreundschaft und den herzlichen Empfang.
Viele Grüße
Solveig und Micha
Dazu kommt die freundliche und hilfsbereite Aufnahme durch die Gastgeber. All das hat uns sehr gut gefallen.
Wir waren von Donnerstag bis Sonntag bei Familie Meier in ihrem Hirtenhaus.
Das Ferienhaus ist wirklich tip top! Es gibt wirklich nichts zu bemängeln.
Die Küche ist sehr gut ausgestattet, die einzelnen Schlafzimmer sind super gemütlich eingerichtet (und bieten auch genug Platz!), das Bad hat eine traumhafte Dusche und als wär das nicht schon genug, hat uns Frau Meier noch mit Holz für den Kamin versorgt.
Wir haben die Zeit wirklich sehr genossen und würden uns freuen, wenn wir nach diesem "stressigen" Wochenende noch einmal zum geselligen Wandern wieder kommen dürfen!
Liebe Grüße aus Bad Nauheim
