Our nature house is situated in a beautifully located forest on a hill with stunning views. It’s ideal for rest, relaxation, and enjoying nature, but also for hiking or mountain biking in the immediate area. For the kids, there’s a trampoline, a zip line, and a garage with a ping-pong table and table soccer; there’s also an e-bike, 1 MTB, and 2 kids’ MTBs. The kitchen is new and opens onto a lovely terrace featuring a wood-fired hot tub (max. 4 people), a BBQ, two hammocks, and a fire pit. There’s a cozy wood stove in the living room for evenings or during the winter. The cottage has a new kitchen, 1 bathroom, and 3 bedrooms with single or double beds. There’s a sauna in the basement. There’s also a room with a desk where you can sit quietly for a day of working from home. Wi-Fi is available, and there’s good 5G coverage. Please note: The TV can only be used as a smart TV. We often use the house ourselves but also rent it out to guests. You’re welcome to use items such as books, games, etc.
Nature and surroundings
The cottage is within walking distance of the village of Sommerau (population 70). There are wonderful (marked) hiking and mountain biking trails starting right from the cottage (long or short routes—check the Komoot app, for example). From the cottage, it’s about a 10-minute drive to Trier, Germany’s oldest city, located in the heart of the famous wine region surrounding the Moselle. Luxembourg and Echternach are about 40 minutes away—perfect for a day trip to the city or for beautiful hikes through the rock formations. In the village of Sommerau (a 5-minute walk away) is an excellent Italian restaurant with a lovely terrace when the weather is nice. A former railroad track now serves as a bike path/hiking trail leading directly to Trier (15 km) or to Hermeskeil (54 km, at an elevation of 500 m). Within 3.5 km, you can bike to the grocery store or the bakery in Waldrach. There’s an outdoor swimming pool 5 km away in Mertesdorf, and places like Holzerather See where you can go for a swim. Two supermarkets are within a 10-minute drive.

A well-appointed and tastefully decorated home where we immediately felt at home. The house is fully equipped with all the amenities. Communication with the owners went very smoothly. Questions were answered quickly, and the one minor issue we had—work being done on the water pipes—was resolved efficiently and promptly. We’d love to come back here again.
Een goed en smaakvol ingericht huis, waar wij ons meteen thuis voelden. Het huis is van alle gemakken voorzien. Het kontakt met de eigenaren verliep prima. Vragen werden snel beantwoord en een enkel probleempje, er werd gewerkt aan de waterleiding, is goed en snel opgelost. Wij komen hier graag nog een keer terug.
This is exactly what you imagine when you think of a nature house. Beautiful surroundings, dead quiet, and pitch black at night. Lots of birds, and every evening a herd of wild boars would come by grunting. In this house, you really feel like you’re right in the middle of the forest. We stayed here for two weeks and truly relaxed. Our dog was free to roam all over the property. The owners have created several small patios on the property, one of which overlooks the valley. It’s absolutely beautiful.
Dit is waar je aan denkt bij een natuurhuis. Prachtige omgeving,doodstil en s'nachts pikdonker. Heel veel vogels en elke avond kwam een kudde wildzwijnen langs knorren. In dit huis waan je je echt midden in het bos. Wij hebben hier 2 weken gelogeerd en zijn echt tot rust gekomen. Onze hond kon zich vrij bewegen over het hele terrein. De eigenaren hebben op het terrein meerdere terrasjes gemaakt,waarvan 1 met uitzicht op het dal. Heel mooi.

We absolutely loved this cozy cottage surrounded by nature. It was beautifully renovated and fully equipped with all the amenities. We found the indoor AND outdoor fireplaces so cozy!
Before we left, we received a document with all the information we needed—which was really helpful!
Upon arrival, we had a problem with the tap water, but that wasn’t really the landlords’ fault. The owners were easy to reach and helped us out very well with this.Wij hebben ontzettend genoten van dit gezellige huisje midden in de natuur. Zeer mooi gerenoveerd. Van alle faciliteiten voorzien. We vonden de haard binnen EN buiten zo gezellig!
Voor vertrek kregen we een documentje met alle informatie die we nodig hadden, heel fijn!
Bij aankomst hadden we een probleem met het leidingwater, maar daar konden de verhuurders eigenlijk niks aan doen. De eigenaars waren vlot bereikbaar en hebben ons hier goed mee geholpen.The cottage is completely surrounded by nature. It’s a very peaceful setting. You can hear the sounds of the animals and the wind. You can start your walk as soon as you step outside the door.
Het huisje is volledig omgeven door natuur. Zeer rustige omgeving. Enkel het geluid van de diertjes en de wind is hoorbaar. Je kan je wandeling starten zodra je de deur buiten stapt.
