Nature house in Güttersbach

If you take a closer look at this distinctive blue country house, built around 1830, you’ll discover a piece of Odenwald history. The clay-walled cottage, with its shingle roof, sandstone staircase, and original half-timbered structure, has been deliberately preserved in its original condition—featuring traditional building materials, old wooden windows, solid oak beams, and an authentic floor plan. Carefully modernized with sustainability and ecology in mind, the cottage combines the charm of bygone days with stylish, contemporary furnishings. No two rooms are alike—and every guest can choose their favorite spot according to their personal taste. The house accommodates up to 6 people—ideal for couples, families, or groups of friends. The adjacent barn is a wonderful place to relax—whether in the shade on hot days or while grilling with the OFYR, a combination of grill and fire pit.
