About this property

Beautiful country house with a fireplace and a large garden. Vacation with family, friends, and the dog.

A holiday from everyday life in Hohenlohe with family and friends. Plenty of space to spend time together.

Detached holiday home for up to 8 people with an approximately 2,000 m² fenced-in garden, a fireplace, and e-bike charging stations.

The holiday home is located on the Hohenlohe Plain between the Kocher and Jagst rivers on the outskirts of the small village of Muthof. It was carefully renovated and generously expanded by us, the architects and owners. With approximately 200 square metres of living space, it comfortably accommodates up to 8 people in 4 bedrooms. Your dog is also welcome.

The holiday home
The main entrance is accessible via both a staircase and a ramp. The entire ground floor is threshold-free, and the terraces are also accessible without thresholds. You’ll have the house all to yourselves.

The interior, featuring harmonious colours, natural materials, and clean lines, creates a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere.

The open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area offers views of the surrounding garden through floor-to-ceiling windows. The new, modern kitchen is perfect for cooking and dining together. It is fully equipped with everything needed for 8 people. The large dining table offers plenty of space for social meals, game nights, and cheerful gatherings.

On cooler evenings, the fireplace creates a cosy atmosphere. Musicians will also appreciate the piano and ukulele.

Four cosy bedrooms—with a total of three double beds and two single beds—offer restful sleep and pleasant places to retreat. A comfortable bathroom with a shower is available on both the ground floor and the attic. Each bathroom is accessible from two bedrooms via a short hallway. There is also a separate guest bathroom on the ground floor.

Room Layout
Ground Floor:
Large living, dining, and kitchen area with a fireplace and piano. One bedroom with access to the terrace featuring a double bed, and another bedroom with two single beds. Guest bathroom and bathroom with walk-in shower and toilet. There is also an information corner with travel guides and brochures.
Attic:
Bedroom with a double bed and a rooftop terrace, plus another bedroom with a double bed. Bathroom with a floor-level shower and toilet, accessible via a hallway. Cosy reading nook in the hallway for a quiet retreat.

Two parking spaces are available in front of the garage.

Bicycles and e-bikes can be parked in the covered bike shed on the property. A charging station is available for e-bikes.

In the holiday home, you’ll find an information folder with tips on shopping, hikes, cultural events, and day trips.

Important Notes
For safety reasons, the holiday home is designed to accommodate a maximum of eight people. Please note that it is not suitable as a party venue.
The holiday home is smoke-free. Smoking is not permitted anywhere inside the property.
Electric vehicles cannot be charged at the holiday home, as there is no wallbox available.
One dog is welcome. However, out of consideration for future guests, your dog is not allowed on the sofas, armchairs, or beds. Please clean up after your dog in the garden as you normally would and remove any visible pet hair from the house before your departure.
Access is convenient via a key box. You will receive your personal PIN code three days before your arrival.


The Garden
The garden, enclosed on all sides by a wire fence, offers plenty of space to relax and play. Generous terraces around the west and south sides of the house invite you to enjoy the sun and the view of the greenery. The terraces are accessible directly from the house.

The large garden table seats up to eight people for shared meals outdoors. Four sun loungers offer a place to relax. There is also a cosy Hollywood swing under the hazelnut bushes. Additional garden benches and seating provide more spots to linger.
The garden furniture is available from around Easter through the end of October.

The Village of Muthof
The holiday home is located in the small village of Muthof, which boasts a history spanning more than 700 years. It is part of the town of Forchtenberg, known as the birthplace of Sophie Scholl.

Muthof is situated in the Hohenlohe Plain, surrounded by fields and meadows and bordered by the Klosterwald forest. The village chapel on the neighbouring property is also part of the village. Its bell traditionally rings for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

Hiking, Biking, Swimming, and Excursions
You can set out on hikes through fields, meadows, and forests right from the holiday home. A direct path leads through the monastery forest to the former Cistercian monastery of Schöntal with its magnificent church.

The holiday home is also ideally located for bike tours, situated between the Kocher and Jagst bike paths. The Kocher River is about 3 km away, and the Jagst River is about 6 km away; both river valleys are accessible via paved paths. The Kocher-Jagst Bike Trail winds through varied landscapes and connects numerous places of interest in the region.

The swimming lake in Schleierhof, the Großer Tiroler See, is about a 20-minute walk away via a forest path and is still considered an insider’s tip. On warm days, the Jagst River near Schöntal Abbey is also perfect for swimming.

If you’d like to try something unique, Jagsthausen offers intuitive archery. During the summer season, you can also attend the famous open-air theatre performances there. Jagsthausen is also home to the castle of Götz von Berlichingen.

Rothenburg ob der Tauber or the somewhat quieter but equally worth-seeing Dinkelsbühl are great options for a day trip. Bad Mergentheim, with its wildlife park, is also a worthwhile destination.

Also worth seeing are Langenburg Castle with the German Car Museum and the medieval old town of Schwäbisch Hall with its Saturday market. The Hohenlohe Open-Air Museum in Wackershofen (near Schwäbisch Hall) vividly illustrates how people in the region used to live and work.

Sehr schönes, liebevoll und vollständig eingerichtetes Ferienhaus, das keine Wünsche offen lässt. Nettes Begrüßungspaket, umfangreiche Ausflugstipps und eine tolle Spielesammlung, die unseren Geschmack getroffen hat. Weitläufiger Garten mit vielen schattigen Sitzmöglichkeiten, frisches Obst vom Baum. Netter und zuvorkommender Kontakt. Die Gegend bietet viele Freizeitmöglichkeiten. Sehr zu empfehlen!

Super huis. De ruimten zijn heerlijk ruim en gezellig. De keuken heeft werkelijk alles wat je zou willen hebben. Dat geldt ook voor de rest van de voorzieningen (tot gestemde muziekinstrumenten aan toe). De eigenaren zijn heel vriendelijk en willen je altijd helpen. De tuin is ruim met veel zitmogelijkheid. Kortom wij hebben genoten en komen graag terug.

**Ein Ferienhaus zum Ankommen, Wohlfühlen und Wiederkommen**Wir haben das Ferienhaus für ein Familienwochenende genutzt und uns vom ersten Moment an wohlgefühlt. Besonders schön war die persönliche Begrüßung bei der Ankunft mit einer kurzen, unkomplizierten Einweisung. Dieser Kontakt hat das Haus gleich etwas vertrauter und persönlicher wirken lassen.Die Ausstattung bewegt sich für uns auf echtem Premium-Niveau: hochwertig, zweckmäßig und sehr durchdacht. Es fehlte an nichts – von den kleinen Dingen des Alltags bis zu praktischen Extras wie dem Gasgrill. Selbst an den Hund wurde mit einer eigenen Kuschelecke gedacht, was wir als sehr liebevolles Detail empfunden haben.Ein großes Highlight ist der riesige Garten. Durch die stehen gelassenen Blühinseln wirkt er wunderbar idyllisch. Unsere Enkel haben ihn ausgiebig zum Toben genutzt. Der Ort liegt angenehm abseits vom Trubel. Der Hahn vom Nachbarn und die Kapellenglocke um 6:45 Uhr gehören hier einfach zum Landleben dazu und haben uns nicht gestört – im Gegenteil, es passte perfekt zum Gesamtbild.Für größere Wanderungen war unser Aufenthalt leider zu kurz. Aber die Umgebung macht Lust auf mehr: Der Tiroler See ist nur einen Katzensprung entfernt, und schon der kurze Spaziergang zum alten Wasserturm im Ort wird mit einem schönen Blick über die Landschaft belohnt.Für uns ein rundum gelungenes Familienwochenende in einem außergewöhnlich gut ausgestatteten Ferienhaus mit viel Ruhe, Natur und Herz.
