quality and long-run development of rural tourism.

We offer b&b-accommodation both in an idyllic red cottage (in
every season) and in small romantic log outbuildings, barns (mainly
during summertime). The cottage is for eight persons, and we
have a total of 16 beds with shared bathroom, sauna and kitchen
facilities.

us, the friendly innkeepers, as well as the animals of our farm;
sheep, hens, ducks, cows… You can also go trekking, fishing,
