About this property
Vacation apartment Forsthaus am Brocken, 60 sqm, 3 bedrooms F5
Welcome to our holiday home in Ilsenburg in the Harz Mountains, right next to the national park. The historic “Forsthaus am Brocken,” dating from the 19th century, was extensively renovated a few years ago into comfortable holiday apartments. The holiday home is located in the Ilse Valley, in the heart of the unspoiled Harz Forest, along the wild mountain stream “Ilse.” The most beautiful trail up the Brocken, as well as other hiking trails leading into the Harz National Park, run right past the house. The 3-bedroom holiday apartment sleeps 6 people. It features a living area with a sofa and flat-screen TV, as well as a solid-wood kitchen with a dining table. There are also two bathrooms with showers and toilets, plus a balcony offering views of the Harz countryside! A wide variety of recreational activities are within walking distance of the holiday homes: a water playground, a Kneipp facility, a climbing forest, a disc golf course, and the Ilsenburg National Park Centre. You can start the most popular hiking trails right from the holiday homes. Arguably the most beautiful hike up the Brocken, the “Heinrich-Heine-Weg,” follows the course of the Ilse River and runs right past our cottages. The historic town of Wernigerode, with its town hall and castle, is just a few minutes’ drive away. Bad Harzburg, with its treetop trail and saltwater spa; Thale, with the Hexentanzplatz and Roßtrappe; and many other excursion options invite you to explore the surrounding area.

Vielen Dank für Ihre schöne Bewertung! Es freut uns sehr, dass Sie mit unserer Unterkunft zufrieden waren und Ihnen besonders die tolle Lage gefallen hat. Schön, dass unsere Beschreibung Ihren Erwartungen entsprochen hat. Wir würden uns freuen, Sie wieder einmal bei uns begrüßen zu dürfen!
Es hat uns super gut gefallen. Wir haben sehr gut geschlafen. Es war alles vorhanden, was man so in einer Ferienwohnung braucht und es war alles tio top sauber. Vielen Dank. Wir kommen gerne wieder.
Die Lage der Ferienwohnung war optimal, vor allem als Ausgangspunkt für Wanderungen. An ihrer Ausstattung fehlte nichts. Antreffen eines sauberen und top vorbereiteten Urlaubsdomizils.
Sehr schöne, ruhig gelegene Ferienwohnung mit viel Platz, drei Schlafzimmern und zwei Bädern. Die Wohnung ist bestens ausgestattet, kostenfreies Parken direkt vor Ort. Reibungslose und freundliche Kommunikation. Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt und kommen gerne wieder.
Schöne Lage, in der Nähe von dem Zentrum von Ilsenburg, und sehr schöne Natur, sehr geeignet für schöne Wandertouren

Vielen Dank für Ihre wundervolle Bewertung! Es freut uns sehr, dass Ihnen unsere Lage und die Natur rund um Ilsenburg gefallen haben und Sie schöne Wandertouren genießen konnten. Wir hoffen, Sie bald wieder bei uns begrüßen zu dürfen!
Wir haben ein tolle Woche in Ilsenburg verbraucht.Sind viel gewandert und haben uns prima erholt.Die Unterkunft war klasse.Eine kleine Anmerkung:Da wir einen Hund dabei hatten, wäre es toll, wenn man oben am Treppenaufgang vielleicht ein kleines Türchenanbringen würde. So kann er hinaus ohne auszubüxen.
Wir waren für einige Tage in Ilsenburg, die Unterkunft ist hervorragend gelegen, der Einstieg in verschiedene Wanderrouten ist quasi direkt nebenan.Die Ferienwohnung selbst bietet alles, was man sich mit einer Familie wünschen kann, die Küche ist gut ausgestattet, es sind zwei vollständige Bäder vorhanden und die Schlafräume sind hinreichend groß. Der Kontagt mit den Vermietern war sehr freundlich und unkompliziert, ebenso der ganze Buchungsvorgang. Wir sind recht sicher nicht das letzte Mal dort gewesen.
