From the initial idea and planning all the way to hundreds of OSB panels, light switches, electrical sockets, custom-built (sink) vanities and window sills, recycled and repainted chairs, painted artwork, hand-picked (dried) flowers, hand-tied wreaths, and carved curtain rods—we’ve put in many hours of work and, above all, poured our heart and soul into this project, so we’re thrilled to welcome guests to our cosy and modern space.<br>Guest Access<br>Our guest barn is located across from our own apartment, which is why we share the stairwell. As hosts, we keep a low profile but are always available if you have any questions or need help.<br>Additional important information<br>For riders who’d like to visit us with their horses, we also offer stalls on our farm. Please contact us before booking if you’d like to bring your horse.<br><br>Please note:<br><br>The Schlaf-Scheune is surrounded by idyllic nature. However, there’s always something going on at a riding stable. It’s inevitable that our farm dog Chico will bark, hooves will clatter, horses will neigh, and riding students will be bustling about. So if you’re interested in getting a taste of real farm life, you’ve come to the right place.

Wir hatten einen tollen Aufenthalt in der Schlafscheune, die wunderschön gestaltet mit liebevoller Innenausstattung. Der Hof ist etwas abgelegen, aber mit etwas Motorisierung kann man viele tolle Ziele in der Umgebung erreichen. So haben wir die Teufelshöhle und den Mittelaltermarkt in Steinau besucht und dem Reitturnier auf dem Hof beigewohnt. Supernette Vermieter krönen das Ganze. Volle Empfehlung, wir kommen wieder!
