About this property

Engenstein Woodland Escape

Forest Edge Escape Nestled on the outskirts of Engenstein, this detached holiday home offers a quiet, sunny retreat with direct access to the southern Thuringian Forest. Wake up to the gentle rustle of trees and enjoy the covered terrace overlooking expansive woodland views. A short path from the parking area leads you into your private haven, where indoor comfort blends seamlessly with outdoor serenity. Active Days Nearby Adventure enthusiasts will find endless options with extensive hiking trails, including the famed Rennsteig, perfect for day-long explorations. Winter brings cross-country skiing, while summer invites cycling and forest walks. Pets are welcome, and nearby forest paths make it easy to enjoy long walks together. Local parks and small trails also offer safe, scenic spots for dogs to play freely. Local Flavors & Culture The region is rich in history and culture, with Erfurt, Weimar, and Eisenach all within a 60–100 km radius, offering museums, historic streets, and charming cafes. Close by, you’ll find family-run restaurants serving traditional Thuringian cuisine and cozy bakeries for morning treats. After a day of exploring, relax in the garden, fire up the charcoal BBQ, or let children enjoy the play equipment while your furry friends lounge nearby.

Dit vakantiehuis is een hele vibe! Super gezellig, als een Pinterest-droom, De tuin is perfect om te chillen en de BBQ-opstelling is anders, Plus, wandelpaden meteen bij de deur? Zoveel Insta-foto's wachten om gemaakt te worden, Geen grap, het is een geweldige plek voor een low-key uitje

Questo posto era un gioiello! Abbiamo avuto una riunione di famiglia qui e si è rivelato perfetto, L'area soggiorno era spaziosa e il barbecue è stato molto utile, Abbiamo fatto molte escursioni sul sentiero Rennsteig nelle vicinanze, Solo un piccolo consiglio, può diventare un po' fresco la sera, quindi porta un maglione!

Veraltet, aber ein schönes, gemütliches Ferienhaus. Die Lage ist perfekt und der Hund aus dem Hause rechts in den Wald. Die Straße vorbei an der Hütte ist immer noch ziemlich beschäftigt. Die Höchstgeschwindigkeit beträgt 70 da, aber mir oft härter gefahren, seien Sie vorsichtig mit Kindern und Haustieren dus.Wij für eine Woche dort sitzen würde, aber am vierten Tag verlassen, weil das Wetter sehr schlecht Sie was.Ga für Ruhe und Natur, ein sehr zu empfehlen!.
