About this property

Characteristic 18th-century apartment, hiking groups, families

Historic 18th-century cottage in the quiet, countryside, medieval town center “Staedli” of Waldenburg. Stay in the midst of living history, with a rare 600-year-old medieval stone wall embedded in the rear of the house. Waldenburg dates back to the early 15th century and is crowned by castle ruins on a hill offering sweeping views of the Jura Mountains. Ideal for hikers, nature lovers, photographers, and artists. In the summer of 2026, the town will become the “Ville des Arts” with around 40 sculptures, transforming every walk into an open-air gallery.

The space:
Step inside a characteristic 18th-century cottage in the medieval “Staedli” of Waldenburg, where a rare 600-year-old city wall whispers stories from the past.
Your private half of the house offers two spacious double bedrooms, a large bathroom with washer and dryer, an additional toilet on the ground floor, and a well-equipped kitchen for relaxed, comfortable living. The owner lives quietly in the other upper half of the house. Up to two dogs are welcome. Surrounded by the hills of the Jura, castle ruins, and timeless charm.

Guest access:
The owner welcomes guests personally and hands over the keys to the vacation area of the holiday home.

Other important information:
There is a small shop at the train station, a 7-minute walk from the holiday home, which is open 7 days a week from early morning until 8 p.m. Larger supermarkets are a 2-minute drive or 20-minute walk from the house. There is an old pub with character and 2 other restaurants, a church, a walk-in self-service tourist information center, a cultural space for art and exhibitions, and a café selling local products, which is open on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays – all just a few minutes' walk from the house. Quiet hours are from 10 p.m. to 7 a.m. Monday through Saturday and all day on Sundays and public holidays.

Tourist tax:
The tourist tax is collected by the host at the accommodation and amounts to CHF 3.80 in Swiss francs per person per night. Residents of the canton of Baselland are exempt from this tax.

Nuit étape sur la route des vacances.Nous avons découvert un petit village artistique fort sympathique avec ce qui'il faut ( bar, resto).En plus la location était conforme a la description, propre et bien agencé..Une étape agréable qui pour la Suisse a un très bon rapport qualité prix.
