Fabulous Cottage

We stayed for four days and it was wonderful. The Cottage was perfect for 2 couples, on site contacts were very friendly and helpful. This was a perfect place to stay for day trips to Heidelberg, Bad-Wimpfen, and Baden-Baden. We enjoyed the seasonal white asparagus and local restaurants. We highly recommended this property!

Beautiful Vacation Home

Perfect! We couldn't ask for a better vacation home to stay in while touring around with our family. Karen made everything very welcoming. The caretakers, Andreas and Tina, were always available if we needed something. The vacation home is very large and has everything you would need to make your stay comfortable. The area was very peaceful and quiet and we took advantage of touring the local towns within this region (Eberbach and Hirschhorn) and Heidelberg is only a short distance away, as well. We truly enjoyed our stay here and will definitely stay here again in the future.

Wir haben zwei Wochen in dieser gemütlichen und ruhigen Ferienwohnung am Ende einer Sackgasse verbracht und haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Die Wohnung ist sauber, voll ausgestattet, sehr groß und sehr gemütlich. Das Boxspringbett sorgt für erholsamen Schlaf. Für Kinder gibt es ein Klettergerüst mit Rutsche und viele Spiele und Puzzle. Die Überdachte Terrasse ist mit einer Markise und vielen Sitz- und Liegemöglichkeiten ausgestattet. Das WLAN ist stabil und schnell und 2 Fernseher sorgen für wenig Streit bei der Auswahl der Abendunterhaltung. Die Küche ist mit Ceranherd und Backofen, Mikrowelle, Kaffeemaschine und Geschirrspüler ausgestattet. 2 Kühlschränke, Tiefkühler, Waschmaschine und Trockner sorgen für Komfort. Einkaufsmöglichkeiten gibt es in Igelsbach nicht. Dafür muss man nach Eberbach oder Hirschhorn fahren.

Ruim appartement in een bosrijk gebied.

Een royaal appartement voorzien van volledige keuken, badkamer, twee royale slaapkamers en ruime woonkamer. Voor het huisje een fijne zitruimte, overdekt en met de ochtendzon. Vriendelijke eigenaresse en behulpzame conciërge. Handdoeken en servies ruim voldoende aanwezig. Afgezien van de spinnenwebben her en der was het appartement schoon en netjes.

Super Wohnung in sehr schöner Umgebung

Schöne, sehr geräumige Wohnung im Erdgeschoss, mit schöner Terrasse und Garten. Alles was man braucht, ist vorhanden. Die Zimmer sind schöner und die Schlafzimmer größer, als es auf den Bildern aussieht! Wir haben zwei schöne lange Spaziergänge vom Haus aus gemacht. Eberbach ist eine schöne kleine Stadt und Kaufland und REWE sind dort gut zum Einkaufen. In Igelsbach gibt es einen Spielplatz, aber keine andere Einrichtungen. Daher aber super ruhig, abgesehen von einem gelegentlichen Traktor, der vorbeifährt und Besuch vom Nachbarn. Der Kontakt mit dem Besitzer und den Managern war äußerst angenehm. Der Neckar und Ihre Gegend sind atemberaubend, auch schon vom Auto aus. Wir können diese Wohnung nur wärmstens empfehlen!

Fantastisk ophold

Det er svært at forestille sig et mere behageligt sted, hvor vi tilbragte flere hyggelige dage. Alting var perfekt: beliggenheden, huset, husets indhold, afstenden fra stedet til de nærmeste byer, naturen, gæstfriheden og så videre. Tusind tak for det. Stærk anbefaling til små grupper eller familier.

Fijn huis in prachtig gebied

Het appartement, dat zich op de begane grond bevindt, is zeer ruim en comfortabel, met alle voorzieningen voor een aangenaam verblijf. Ook als het buiten heel warm is, is de woning lekker koel. De ventilator waar we om hadden gevraagd bleken we niet te hoeven gebruiken. Op het ruime terras is het heerlijk toeven, in een weldadige rust. De Neckar, Heidelberg, de verschillende stadjes en de mooie bossen zijn allemaal makkelijk bereikbaar. Een echte aanrader!

Entspannung Pur!

Die herzliche Begrüßung von Karen und Roland war nur der Anfang eines besonderen Urlaubs. Die Lage des wunderbaren Hauses trifft zu, es ist wirklich sehr ruhig gelegen, und abseits der größeren Orte. Dennoch ist man schnell mit dem Auto am Neckar und kann mit dem Fahrrad wunderbare Touren machen oder wandern. Die Wanderwege sind bestens ausgeschildert, die Margarethenschlucht ist ein echtes Highlight! Wer im Sommer dort ist und an klassischer Musik interessiert ist, darf die besonderen Konzerte in der Hirschhorner Klosterkirche nicht verpassen, dort treten junge Musiker*innen auf , immer mittwochs um 20:44 Uhr, von Juni bis September. In der Wohnung fehlt es an nichts, die Betten sind wirklich super, und der Fernblick von der Terrasse (mit Markise!) lädt zum verweilen ein. Schon zum Frühstück scheint die Sonne auf die Terrasse und wenn es wie diesen Sommer doch mal etwas kühler und regnerischer ist, gibt es noch eine Elektrische Heizung im Wohnzimmer. Ein wunderbare Wohnung - und mit der freundlichen Begleitung von Karen und Roland etwas Besonderes.

About the host

Hosted by Karen Rollandi

Host profile image
As an American with German heritage, I fell in love with this beautifully designed and built house. The Ferienwohnung blends German style with American style to offer great comfort.

Why they chose this property

The location selected by the original owner to build my house is intriguing. It is private and serene, but grand in scale. It has been a great joy to blend German traditions and American style as installations in the home have been updated. The gardens are large and offer great soil and climate for many plant and flower varieties. Visitors my hike in the forest, go biking on many trails, enjoy the marvellous outdoor swimming facilities in Eberbach, or swim, fish and boat on the Neckar River.

What makes this property unique

Located in the Neckar River Valley, the water in Igelsbach is superb. Fruits, vegetables and flowers are easily grown and shared. Nearby historic Hirschhorn is a central point for music and culture. Lovely shops and restaurants abound. The churches are art and a spirit that opens the heart. Eberbach has a well kept art museum, and Roman ruins are found in Bad Hornberg.
