  Beschreibung

  We are a family-like group of five living in a beautiful, big place. In addition we have up to three people living in and around the house with us. There are two "tiny houses" and one cabin on our ground. The place is located peacefully 300 yards off the village right at the edge of the woods, surrounded by 5500m2 of property ground. We (try to) grow vegetables, do keep hens and cats while always having some minor or major to build, renovate or create in the house and outside. There are two children: Jette, seven, and Enno, four, the younger one is what you call disabled and has some lovely nurses caring for him.
  
  We like to make our home feel like being on holiday. But in our rare "free time" we love to experience and explore nature, play with the kids, excercise, are creative or renovate/build something in and around the house. The woods are vast and you can walk for hours. We love to have people around and friends on visit. So here's always something going on. However, as we both work during school-weeks there might be some mornings where it is very quiet and peaceful around here.

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  Marieke is actually a wilderness educator at heart but she earns money being an English and biology teacher. She has also worked as a baker and pastry cook for some time. Marieke can also do nearly everything with a sewing machine, especeally nice peasents or unique clothes for children. Anders knows a lot of our local plants and mushrooms, but he could also teach you how to play the piano. We are both self-trained in several DIY and arty fields like sewing or painting, we have equipment for pottery, enamel, a library and of course a big and well-equipped workshop.
  Anders is working also for big newspaper, writing articles about theater, concerts and art. He earns money being an teacher for history, philosophy and german literature.

  Unterkunft

  In the main house we have a generous guest room with a double bed, a big sofa and a desk. Next to it there is a simple but private bathroom and also a sauna. The room is on the ground floor, while all other shared rooms are above, so it’s very private if you want it to be. The large kitchen for everyone is up the stairs on the same floor as the living room and the library. There is a small garden cabin with a lovely alcove to sleep in and a veranda in the garden. At least one of the tiny houses is free for your stay at the moment.
  We receive our groceries mainly from a local organic farm delivery and like to cook freshly, if time allows. We don't buy or eat meat! We take turns in preparing meals and clearing the kitchen afterwards and love to have a big table full of hungry people.

We have bikes, pedelecs and cars for closer and further exploration and for your use as well. Kassel offers some cultural attraction as does Melsungen a smaller town nearby offering ice cream parlors and a weekly market. Groceries are available some kilometers away.
