    Simply enchanting!

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    A magical little journey back in time to a medieval-style cottage nestled in a mysterious wild garden between two ponds, where Baroque garden furniture invites you to relax and enjoy the moment. Inhabited by all manner of animals and insects, it wouldn’t be surprising to come across goblins and fairies there. Inside, you’re greeted by a wonderfully creaking door leading into the kitchen. It’s reminiscent of a small tavern, and even the modern bathroom is so seamlessly integrated into the overall style that it’s anything but a distraction from the experience. The interior design emphasizes historical roots and exudes a cozy, warm, and slightly mysterious atmosphere. I’m looking forward to my next visit there. Thank you very much.

    The first few days, I was just homesick for my cozy house and garden. Holger and his girlfriend’s hospitality and friendliness were also remarkable.
    They invited us out for a drink one evening, and we had a wonderful time sitting by the big pond.
    It was also great that they speak English well!
    And Anemoon even speaks Dutch fluently!
    These are truly people who put their hearts into it and will do everything they can to give you a wonderful vacation experience!
    Holger brought us freshly baked waffles for breakfast, and even on the day of our departure, he gave us a few to take home!
    We won’t forget this little spot anytime soon and will probably come back again!
    It was perfect!

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    We really had a wonderful week at Holger’s. When we arrived, there were fresh flowers all over the house, along with coffee, tea, milk, and even chocolate, and beer and water in the fridge. The house is wonderfully cool, which was perfect for the warm weather! They brought over some lovely lounge chairs and created cozy seating spots all over the garden. The garden is a paradise for our dog, Miley!!! She really had the time of her life! I, too, especially enjoyed the peace and quiet and the greenery all around me. I picked the tastiest blackberries ever and found the nature surrounding the house very beautiful as well. Within 5 minutes, you’re on a beautiful trail where you can really enjoy yourself if you love hiking. It’s a bit challenging if you have knee problems, but there are plenty of other options nearby that are more accessible. For example, in Hilden there’s a large forest where dogs are allowed to run off-leash, and right next to it is a fantastic restaurant (The 12 Apostles) with delicious food. Highly recommended!

    We thought it was a nice place, great for cycling, 15 km from Düsseldorf, and easy to get to by bike. Mettmann is nearby via a bike path, where you’ll find restaurants and a great ice cream shop.

    The cottage was situated a bit below street level. The advantage was that it was cooler, peaceful, and quiet. The decor had a cozy, rustic feel. It was a bit dark inside because of all the greenery in the garden, though there were sunny spots and seating areas. The kitchen was unique but functional, with a large natural stone sink and countertop. There was a minor issue with the shower and the stovetop, which was immediately fixed by a professional. The landlord lives on the property and is very helpful.
