    Description

    Welcome to Berlinchen, the gateway to a relaxing holiday!
    Our farm is located on the Mecklenburg Lake District or, as they also say, the land of 1000 lakes.
    We offer you child-friendly accommodation in a family atmosphere in the country.
    If desired, with daily meals.
    Our farm is far away from the main road. The protected atmosphere offers families and their kids the opportunity to move freely and there is enough space for adults to rest and relax.
    On our farm there is a guest house, a restaurant, a horse stable with around 15 horses and 1 donkey, a riding arena, a riding hermitage, a sheep enclosure, a rabbit hutch and much more.

    ----------------
    What kind support are we looking for?
    Besides helping us out in the Service Area (serving guests and helping in the kitchen) or even taken care of "Jonte" (our little sun), we are planning to perform some renovation in our guest house. Are you skilled to paid, craftwork etc,?

    What should you bring a long?
    You should be open-minded, honest and like to pull up your sleeves. Basic German knowledge would be highly appreciated, as the folks on the countryside don't speak a lot of English - it doesn't need to be perfect :).
    That said, also we are open-minded.
    We prefer workaways, which like to stay with us for a longer period (min. 4 weeks and if you can more).

    What do we offer?
    We offer you accommodation (private room/ share bathroom and in the summer one of our bungalows) and community meals if you wish.
    We offer according to German regulations minimum wage "mini-job" + accommodation/ meal and in the community (working hours 30/ week).
    ---------------------------

    Have we coughed your interest? Then just get in touch with us. We look forward to getting to know you!

    What else ...

    You are in Berlinchen, the gateway for your holidays in the Mecklenburg Lake District, or as we say, the land of 1000 lakes. From here you can enjoy excursions to the many lakes in the area to cool off, to paddle or just relax by the water. Even more refreshing is to grab a paddle boat right at our lake next to the hotel or go fishing.

    The environment of our country house hotel offers you enough space for horse riding and romantic carriage rides taking in the beautiful scenery of the Brandenburg and Mecklenburg regions.

    Those who are looking for an adventure during the summer can go in a glider right from Berlinchen. An extensive walk or bike ride can be taken straight from the farm, with refreshments at one of the beautiful lakes around our house. The boat trips to the Müritz are also a very relaxing and interesting option.

    With over 1,100 km the Tour Brandenburg is probably the longest bicycle tour in Germany, crossing the Prignitz in the East. On the trail from Heiligengrabe to Wittstock the tour leads through Berlinchen. In addition to this impressive tour, there are other routes available and tours to choose from. We are happy to assist you in planning your vacation at the Mecklenburg Lake District.
