About this property

Wonderfully located in the Bergisches Land, not far from Cologne and Dusseldorf, situated on the edge of the forest with a big and sunny garden, 3 terraces and a separate sauna house. Hiking and mountain bike tours with both easy and more difficult ascents can be started directly from the house: you could go around the Dhunntalsperre, through the Eifgental Valley, along the Jakobsweg or across Maria in der Aue to Altenberg. In just 5 walking minutes you reach the forest swimming baths or the Pfannkuchenhaus Coenenmühle. In the afternoons you can relax in the sauna, use the sun terraces, or have a barbecue in a relaxed atmosphere...

Ruhige Unterkunft für eine entspannte Zeit

Hervorragend geeignet für kleinere Gruppen mit einem Hang zum Kartenspiel oder Saunainteressenten. Außenaktivitäten sicher möglich, aber aufgrund der obigen Beschäftigung nicht wahrgenommen.

Angenehmer Aufenthalt

Freundlicher Empfang vom Gastgeber. Etwas kleine Räume aber daher sehr gemütlich mit fünf verblieben. Das Haus liegt in einem kleinen Dorf. Wandern in Wald kan mann direkt vor dem Haus. Schöner Sauna in einem Gebäude direkt nebenan.

About the host

Hosted by Berg & Tal, Martin Gniewoß

The Bergisches Land has always been my destination for cycling tours and hikes. Since I have been renting ski lodges and holiday homes in the Alps for over 20 years, it was a special pleasure being able to design a holiday home for holiday guests just nearby...

Why they chose this property

I searched a very long time for a house in the Bergisches Land, since it had to be close to nature and no more than 30 min away from Cologne at the same time. In the summer of 2013 I finally found this wonderful house in Ketzberg! To me it was very much a matter of the heart: to realise all my ideas of a holiday home and to create a place in which you can recover and relax and feel absolutely comfortable. Hence, in the next two and a half years I spent - with the vigorous help of friends - every free minute in order to completely restore the house, to build a separate sauna house, and to create an autonomous creek, for example.

What makes this property unique

The house’s location is secluded, on the edge of the forest. Because it is set on a hill side, it offers beautiful views in the natural garden up to the forest's edge. The property is sunny like a forest clearing from March to the end of October. The light-flooded conservatory invites you to read surrounded by nature. “Up there”, there’s often snow in winter, while it is only raining in Cologne or Dusseldorf – I have been able to enjoy several sledge rides with my children. The big former garage seemed perfect to convert it into a sauna house with its terrace facing the garden...The forest baths are just a 5-minute walk away. They open for the summer holidays and offer a wonderful opportunity for refreshing - besides its 2 big pools, there is a children's pool, a playground, and a new wakeboard facility. I really like to be “up there” myself and have spent many hiking weekends with friends in the house, enjoying the sauna afterwards and some delicious barbecued food on the terrace...
