  • Our family holiday was truly Amazing! The location makes an excellent base for exploring the Black Forest and there is so much to do and see it is impossible to do in one trip. The flat was very nice, modern, clean and well-maintained. It is a great place to relax and unwind after an exciting day of exploring, sightseeing and dining. We enjoyed relaxing on the balcony and soaking in the beautiful view with a glass of wine or one of the many great local beers that are available. The kitchen is well equipped if you want to stay in and cook. There are chairs and a table included for relaxing on the balcony. The kids really enjoyed the indoor swimming pool. The apartment had a lot of little extra touches that gave it a nice home feel. There are a few shops and restaurants in walking distance. The bakery makes some excellent pastries (chocolate croissants, apple strudels and fresh bread) and there is an excellent local pizzeria on the main street that we highly recommend. There is a local market within easy walking distance. There are also some nice restaurants to enjoy in Triberg. We highly suggest that you take advantage of the free KONUS cards that are included with your stay. They allow you free travel on the trains within the Black Forest area and you can get a copy of the train schedules from the local tourist office. All of the locals were very friendly and helpful and the flat has many helpful maps and tourist guides to help you plan your day trips. You can catch the train in Triberg which is only a few minutes from the flat. The apartment is great for teens as the upstairs loft gives them some privacy and you some peace and quiet. You can enjoy a day at Europa Park which is only an hour away. The only negative was the washing machine. We had problems with it and it was very expensive to do a load of laundry. Everything else was truly wonderful! We will come back again and we have already recommended this flat to all of our family and friends. To Eddy and Hilde - Thanks again for everything! Jack and Bea

  • We had a wonderful time at your property in Schonwald. The apartment is very spacious, well-equipped, and comfortable. The neighborhood is quiet and restful. We particularly enjoyed the views from the balcony and the hiking. I highly reccomend your property to other families.

  • Spacious and modern 3 bedroom 2 bath flat set on top of a hill in a quaint German village. Perfect location for family skiing - we even took our one year old out to the local ski slope with us just a five minute drive away. More challenging skiing in Feldberg is also a short drive away. Views of the town in the valley from the kitchen and living area balconies are breathtaking. Just outside the back door lies green forest with loads of hiking trails along with a recreation area including tennis courts. Great restaurants and shops within walking distance. Eddy and Hilde set this flat up nicely with EVERYTHING - including baby cot, toys, books, movies, etc. Our family looks forward to visiting this newly remodeled location again for another exciting yet relaxing ski holiday.

  • Just to say we (myself, 2 daughters and one boyfriend - hers!) had a great time during our week at Schonwald (6-13 Sep 08). The apartment was lovely as was the weather. The Konus card was brilliant as it allowed me to spend some time on my own hiking while "the kids" went off on their own via the excelllent public transport. And we made full use of the tennis club which was particularly appreciated. Thanks again. The Eaton family plus one.

  • "We had a fantastic time staying at Eddy and Hilde's flat. As well as being very comfortable and well-equipped it had fabulous views and was in easy walking distance of shops, restaurants and local amenities. It was really helpful to find local info and maps for days out, and plenty of DVDs, games, toys and books to keep us occupied on rainy days when we weren't enjoying the indoor swimming pool. We received a really warm welcome and farewell from the caretaker and altogether had a great time in Schonwald. Having fallen in love with the area, we're sure we'll be back soon. Thanks Eddy and Hilde for sharing your home with us. "

  • We stayed in the apartment during the first week of August 2008, and really enjoyed our time in Schonwald.Our two teenage girls immediately made themselves at home in the upstairs "den", and really loved the freedom it gave them. They would watch certain movies from the extensive library with the "oldies", but also kept others for more private viewing on their own TV / DVD system up there. They also made plenty of use of the indoor pool and sauna in the building. The apartment is very well equipped, and even the most fussy family would find it difficult to suggest further additions to the equipment supplied. Above all else, the apartment is beautifully maintained and clean. The village of Schonwald is pure "Chocolate Box" country, and when coupled with the array of sporting facilities is a great "find" for any visitors. If you want a real "get away from it all" type of holiday, you really should give Eddy and Hilde's place strong consideration.

  • We stayed for 10 very restful days during April. The apartment is very much what everyone says - home from home, tastefully furnished and extremely comfortable. The location and view is stunning. It is also in a lovely small village which has a remarkable number of excellent restaurants close by. It is an apartment and location that we are very much considering using again.

  • We had an absolutely fantastic holiday (29 Dec 2007 - 5 Jan 2008). The apartment was ideally located, very clean, with an extremely well equipped kitchen, plenty of towels and bedding and also good laundry facils. The balconies provided amazing views of the scenic landscape (snowed covered trees and views during our stay). We had lots of snow during the week which was excellent, so we bought a sledge to pull our little 2yr old son on through the village and down the slopes, whilst we hired some skis and boots and ventured onto the nursery slopes opposite the sports shop - very reasonable prices per day for hire. We thoroughly enjoyed it - maybe next time we may venture onto the ski lifts! We also enjoyed the swimming pool - ideally located in the basement and a real bonus to take a dip whenever. Worth noting that with our UK summer tyres we really did need the snow chains on our VW Golf car to get up the road to the apartment and up the road to the ski slope. Everywhere else in the village was fine, and the surrounding villages seemd to have less snow (lower ground). Also worth noting that's it's wise to bring a few essentials if you intend to arrive late Saturday afernoon/evening without stopping beforehand to stock up as the local supermarkets are shut. So a bottle of water, cereal and milk for the morning worth a thought. We loved the Triberg waterfall, Freiberg, Hinterzarten (very picturesque) as well as the nearby village of Schonach, and purchased a cuckoo clock from the world's largest cuckoo clock (and shop) for our son's bedroom. An excellent property perfect for little ones to run around as well all on one level as well as plenty of DVDs for them to watch and for evenings in. We didn't use the upstairs room at all (note: the stairs are very steep for very little ones), but we certainly had plenty of room for the three of us on the lower floor - but this extra room with it's own ensuite would be great for older children (8 yrs plus) or another couple. Thank you Eddy and Hilde for all your information and advice and for the guidance and tourist notes in the apartment and on the bulletin boards. BRILLIANT! We'll be back!

  • Although we've returned home to the daily grind now, we're all wishing we were still up in Schoenwald!! We had a wonderful week in the Black Forest, due in no small part to this great flat. The owners and caretakers ensured that we had everything we needed during our stay. It's a very clean building and tasteful flat located in a great, low-key town. It's hard to imagine how the flat could have been better. We went for long walks and enjoyed magnificent views (especially amazing sunrises) from the balcony and kitchen. We also got that lucky combination of lots of snow on the ground and plenty of sunshine. We would definitely recommend this place for anyone headed to the Black Forest or just looking to relax in a nice, unpretentious setting.

  • We stayed at the apartment 3-10 November. We found everything we could possibly need. For nights we wanted to stay in, we found games, DVDs and music. After days we spent away, we found the large living room a perfect place to relax and plan the next day's activities. This is a great place to stay and we would go back again and again!
