Apartment//Holiday home Remise Pos­sen­hofen

The ultimate summer resort. The small village of Pos­sen­hofen lies directly on Lake Starnberg. A rural idyll with a hea­venly swimming beach, aptly named “Paradise”, and a majestic history. After all, Empress Sisi spent her childhood here. The Remise Pos­sen­hofen, which was built in 1890 as the horse stable and coach house of the Villa Fischer for the duke’s per­sonal phy­sician, also dates from this time. A few years ago, the building was com­pletely reno­vated in accordance with heritage pre­ser­vation regu­la­tions and was con­verted into three modern and indi­vi­dually fur­nished holiday apart­ments for two people each.
The See­zimmer [Lake Suite], painted deep blue, on the ground floor is the largest apartment in the house. In addition to the white-tiled kitchen with a view of the land­scape and the south-facing sun terrace, it offers its guests a com­for­table bedroom, a deep bathroom with exquisite wall­paper with fish motifs and a separate dressing room. The Berg­zimmer and the Wald­zimmer [Mountain and Forest suites] on the upper floor are acces­sible via an external staircase. Thanks to their shared ves­tibule, both apart­ments can also be rented as one unit and share the pretty gra­velled cour­tyard for sitting outside on sunny spring days and balmy summer evenings.
Painted in warm grey, the Berg­zimmer opens up to a light-filled loft with an open roof space, where ever­y­thing and everyone comes tog­ether. From the kitchen to the large dining table to the hosts’ vinyl coll­ection and favourite books.
Then there is the sage-green Wald­zimmer, where tran­quillity reigns. It also has an open roof truss, a small kitchen block that doubles as a dining table and work­place, a genuine Tölz farm cup­board and a type­writer from the 60s, with plenty of paper and fresh ribbon to capture the flow of thoughts.

What to do

In summer, the " Paradise " swimming beach awaits you directly below the Remise for stand-up paddling, windsurfing, boating, sailing; cycling around the lake (the Remise has bicycles); walking, hiking or jogging through the Possenhofen Forest or the Maising Gorge; a visit to Possenhofen Castle, where Empress Sisi spent her youth, or the Sisi Museum at Possenhofen railway station; an excursion to the Buchheim Museum of the Imagination or to Munich (the S-Bahn station is only 200 m away and the journey takes approx. 30 minutes); in winter skiing in Garmisch and Mittenwald.

Owner

Katrein and Gregor Wöltje live as a colourful patchwork family with seven children and two cats in the Villa Fischer in Possenhofen on Lake Starnberg. In 2015, they transformed the historic coach house next to their home into a sustainable holiday home with three apartments. Although they love the Bavarian mountains on their doorstep, they like to travel the world, get inspired and discover new places to stay, like the Agger Farmhouse in Denmark.
