Apartment Krippen-an der Grundmühle / Family apartment with 3 bedrooms
Welcome to the holiday apartment "Krippen-an der Grundmühle" – in the Saxon Switzerland National Park, a paradise for hiking and climbing. Enjoy your stay at the foot of the Kohlbornstein mountain in the tranquil village of Krippen.
The holiday apartment is 75 m² and is located on the first floor of a house with four apartments.
With its three bedrooms, living room, kitchen, bathroom, and guest toilet, the apartment is ideal for a small group or larger family of up to six adults. It is also frequently booked by young families with small children.
The bedrooms are 17, 10, and 8 m², and the living/dining room, including the bay window (small conservatory), is 18 m². The bay window, accessible from the living room, is not heated. The guest toilet is located outside the apartment, halfway between the ground floor and the first floor.
The apartment spans two levels, therefore there is a small staircase with five steps within the apartment.
Furthermore, the house contains a rental apartment on the ground floor as well as two smaller holiday apartments.
If you require more space, we would be happy to check if another holiday apartment is available in the house.
Exterior: This holiday apartment includes the double garage at the rear of the property as well as the entire area in front of both garages.
In the double garage, you will find four guest bicycles, a seating area (for six people), a ping-pong table, a grill, a fire pit, and other items that you are welcome to use free of charge.
The village of Krippen lies on the left bank of the Elbe River. From here, you can easily reach numerous hiking destinations in the national park on foot. You can conveniently cross to the other side of the Elbe by ferry, allowing you to leave your car behind. Thanks to the guest card, the Elbe ferries, buses, and the S-Bahn (suburban train) are free of charge. A bus stop is within sight, approximately 50 meters from the house.
The painter Caspar David Friedrich was drawn to the village 200 years ago, creating his famous drawings and paintings.
The following services are included in the overnight price: final cleaning, towels, bed linens, guest bicycles, and all other games/equipment in the double garage.
