The Former Zwieslerwaldhaus Customs House: Bickels Vacation Apartments

Our apartment, Pepe (named after our father, grandfather, and great-grandfather), is one of our most spacious vacation rentals at approximately 80 square meters and is located on the upper floor of the Old Customs House. The apartment, which has been awarded four stars by the German Tourism Association, features two bedrooms (one with a modern box-spring bed and one with twin beds that can be converted into a large sleeping area for three people), a large living room with an open fireplace, and a cozy sofa that can be converted into a double bed. The large living/dining kitchen is fully equipped with a dishwasher, microwave, oven, refrigerator with freezer compartment, coffee maker, and Tassimo. In the bathroom, which features a shower and a separate makeup mirror, you’ll find soft hand and bath towels. The apartment is separated from the “Silberberg” vacation rental by a double door. If you need more space, this apartment can be booked in addition, providing room for up to 7 people in total.<br>The picturesque village of Zwieselerwaldhaus lies at the foot of the Falkenstein. One of the most beautiful houses here is the Alte Zollhaus, built in 1926 from natural stone, brick, and wood.
