Surrounded by fields, this old farmhouse lies in the vast marshes of East Friesland. The listed building, in typical local architectural style, consists of classical living quarters dating from 1841 and an even older barn (ca. 1780). Since the farm buildings were no longer suitable for agricultural use, the living quarters have been converted into holiday apartments: one small apartment for up to two people and three large apartments for five or six people. Two of each have a connecting door and can be combined as needed.
Many details are reminiscent of earlier times: The rooms are decorated according to the historic colours, old doors have been restored and ceiling and floorboards as well as windows correspond to their originals as closely as possible. The rooms on the ground floor (the former living quarters) have a generous ceiling height of 3.80 meters. The first floor – the former granary – has a lower ceiling height which enhances the cosy athmosphere of the bedchambers. In the former cowshed there is another flat for six people and a common room, which can be rented together with the flats. It is equipped with a kitchen and offers space for celebrating, watching films or feasting at a long table.The farm has a large garden with old trees, a canal and a small teahouse (the perfect place for a cup of East Frisian tea!).
