  Description

  Ideal as a stop-over for some days and to explore this nice region.
  
  
  Hi ! Having used Workaway ourselves, we would now like to offer other travelers the opportunity to stay with us - looking forward to meeting new people from different areas and nations. Our family consists of four people: Ulf and Uli work full-time (partly working from home), Pascal and Isabelle are studying and have already moved out but are on visits here and than. Our cat is very shy at first, but once she gets to know you, she won't get enough of your cuddles.
  
  We are located in the country side of the Taunus reagion, north-east of Frankfurt /M.
  Our small city is offering all you need for living: a small train station (Taunusbahn), supermarkets and small shops such as drug store, cloths, bakery, cafe, gelateria, reachable from our home by a short walk or by bike.
  The next bigger town is Bad Homburg (20 km) which can be reached within 30-40 minutes by bus or train.
  Frankfurt/Main city (40 km) can be reached within 40 minutes by car/ apprx 1hr+ by train -depending on the connection).
  
  We have plenty of space for you to enjoy your time. When we go on outings, you are welcome to come along.
  We love cycling, walking, hiking, swimming and spending time with nice people.
  In summer you can cool off in the small lake nearby or our tube in the garden. In winter you can enjoy a hot bath outside. (Don't worry, we have a shower inside the house, too ;-))
  Anyhow, there's lots to discover in the surrounding area.
  
  We can host 1-2 persons and recommend a stay of approx. 4-5 days. 🌿🏡🌸
