Nature &
Garden
We would like to give you as many of these as possible. Moments of relaxation and enjoyment. Of joy. Of pausing for a moment. Of well-being. Small sources of strength. Of course, the surrounding, wildly romantic forest landscape provides the perfect backdrop. But our garden also plays its part. Our garden is particularly close to our hearts. Because it frames our house and makes it the oasis we want it to be for you. Not just a bland lawn. A sea of flowers and grasses with many cosy retreats on different levels.
In between, unobtrusively embedded, you will also find the element of water with a swimming pond, outdoor pool and goldfish pond. Listen to the relaxing ripple and savour every moment.
