Description
Our farm is located in a secluded spot 400 m from the edge of the village, in a lake- and forest-rich, gently hilly landscape.
We offer you two exceptional (non-smoking) holiday apartments in a former pig and horse stable for up to 4 and 6 (adult) persons, which have been furnished in a particularly unusual and harmoniously colored style.
Here are the description and pictures of the pigsty. You will also find the horse stable here with us.
Enjoy your breakfast or the sunset on the outdoor terrace with a wonderful view of the countryside, with a fire pit and barbecue area.
The apartments are quietly located away from the rest of the farm activities, on the edge of the orchard.
On our farm live pigs, sheep, a donkey, horses, and ponies. Geese, chickens, and rabbits roam the farm and meadows. A dog and numerous cuddly cats are also present. Depending on the pasture, the animals may be right outside your kitchen or bedroom window, or watch you while you have breakfast or barbecue on the outdoor terrace. Even if the livestock are not directly next to the apartments, they are always within sight.
Of course, there is the opportunity to feed and pet the "small" animals, including the free-roaming rabbits. But you can also help feed the "big" ones, or, if you are brave, feed a cow by hand. Feeding pigs and petting these bristly creatures is also possible at any time. The sheep are always happy for any change from the green grass in the form of bread or carrots.
For children, the apartment offers a crib, high chair, and children's dishes, a step stool for the sink, a toilet seat attachment, and socket covers are available. There is also a changing table for babies. In the garden, there is a swing, a stilt house, and a giant trampoline. Children’s bicycles, scooters, and handcarts are available.
For adults, there is a sauna in the orchard.
The apartment has no television. Experience the animals and nature and enjoy everything live with all your senses.

Overall assessment
November 2025
Thorsten F. from Berlin
Many animals, top apartment
We were on site with two small children. The apartment is very well equipped (even a changing table). The kitchen is set up for good food even on vacation, right down to the garlic press. Nice dishes, glasses, all in sufficient quantity, and super sharp knives, some better than at home. No expenses were spared here. We had unlimited contact with the animals with the children. Exception: chickens, ducks, geese due to the current avian flu. But the many pet cats, rabbits, as well as the pigs, sheep, donkeys, and horses have more than made up for it. The location is absolutely quiet. We can only recommend the farm and will come back in the summer.

Simple beautiful....
We have been to the Georgenhöhe farm several times. It is always wonderful. Rainer and Yvonne are very nice hosts. We feel very comfortable there, there is always something new to discover. I can't describe it that well, you just have to experience it.

great accommodation
We had a super great holiday week in Schweinetall with our children. Everything was just perfect: the accommodation, the ambiance, the hosts, the animals, and the surroundings. It's a dream for children to have such close contact with the animals. The pigs were fed, the geese were led to the barn, the cats and rabbits were petted, and horseback riding was enjoyed. We spent an absolutely relaxing and refreshing holiday week in Schweinetall and would love to come back.

Time to relax
This was the third time we had the pleasure of spending our October holidays in the pigsty. We and above all our children (8 and 10 years old) enjoyed it very much. The holiday flat is not only convincing because of the super equipment, but especially because of the cosiness.
We were able to really relax during these 5 days and leave the stress of the big city behind us. Special highlights this time were the rainy hike around the Wurlsee and the walk with horse and dog.

Childhood dream
Wonderful place that seems to come straight out of an Astrid Lindgren story, where one wants to personally get to know and can meet every farm animal and immediately provides relaxation from everyday life!
