In Schleswig-Holstein, near the Schaalsee lake, Frederike and her husband have transformed a former thatched-roof school country home into a sustainable vacation home. The country house includes four apartments as well as rooms for seminars and team building and is made exclusively of natural building materials such as clay, wood and stone.
As one of two apartments on the upper floor, this one welcomes you with warm natural tones, modern Scandinavian-style furnishings, and original preserved wooden beams and doors. Here under the roof, clean lines and soft color accents provide atmospheric tranquility.
Whether you arrive as a couple, with friends or as a family with children - two lovingly designed bedrooms with double beds and a shower room offer enough space for up to four people. In the high-quality, open kitchen you can cook together with a view of the outdoors and spend extensive dinner or game evenings in the adjoining living and dining area.
The spacious garden and private terrace invite you to barbecue, relax and daydream, while the numerous swimming spots in the surrounding area and the sheer endless nature around the Lauenburg Lake District and the Schaalsee Biosphere Reserve offer numerous excursion opportunities. Here you will experience how nature and design can be optimally harmonized.
