About this property

Vacation Home at the Old Watermill

Escape the daily grind and immerse yourself in an adventure in the Upper Lusatian Highlands. Our holiday home, “An der Wassermühle,” is your base for unforgettable experiences. Whether you’re roasting marshmallows over a crackling campfire in the summer, relaxing in the garden, or exploring the surrounding nature—you’ll find everything you’re looking for here. The region also has plenty of surprises in store in winter.

Our holiday home offers everything you need for a relaxing holiday. The spacious terrace is perfect for barbecuing, and in the garden, you can unwind in the hammock. The fully equipped kitchen, featuring a dishwasher, coffee maker, and oven, leaves nothing to be desired. The cosy living room with a flat-screen TV is the ideal place to relax or spend a fun game night with the family. There are 2 bedrooms, each with a single bed, and 1 bedroom with a large double bed. The two bathrooms, each with a shower and bathtub, also offer the highest level of comfort.
Of course, free Wi-Fi is also available throughout our property.

The “Kuchenhäusel” bakery is a traditional café located about a 5-minute walk away. Here you’ll not only find your breakfast pastries, but you can also relax in the beer garden after a long bike ride. The “Alte Wassermühle” restaurant is just a few steps away from your holiday home. Additional shopping options are about a 5-minute drive away.
You can conveniently rent bicycles from us through a third-party provider—just let us know upon arrival. By bike or on foot, you can travel along the Spree River all the way to Bautzen or beyond and explore the picturesque surroundings. In Bautzen, you’ll find numerous restaurants serving regional specialities and international dishes.
The Upper Lusatian mountain landscape also invites you to go on long hikes. We’d be happy to give you tips on the most beautiful routes.
Just a 15-minute drive away, a very special adventure awaits: The Kleinwelka Dinosaur Park, Germany’s oldest dinosaur park, invites you on a fascinating journey back in time. Right next door, you can get lost in Bautzen’s giant maze and put your sense of direction to the test. An experience for young and old alike.
If you prefer a more relaxing experience, the 5-star day spa at the “Bei Schumann” hotel offers a wide selection of saunas, pools, and relaxation rooms. In just 10 minutes, you can treat yourself to some well-deserved pampering here.
Upper Lusatia also has plenty to offer in winter. The Upper Lusatian Highlands are perfect for skiing and tobogganing. Enjoy the snow-covered winter landscape.
Dresden is also worth a visit; in about 45 minutes by car, you can marvel at the impressive architecture, including the Frauenkirche.

Eine Perle in Sachsen, jeden Euro wert!

Eines vorweg: Wir reisen sehr viel und mieten gern Häuser. Verwöhnt und anspruchsvoll sind wir - zugegeben - auch.Das Haus ist mit Abstand das Beste, welches wir je buchten. Die Einrichtung ist absolut edel und hochwertig. Das Grundstück bietet eine üppige Rasenfläche, eine Feuerstelle, einen riesigen Pavillon mit Platz für mindestens 10 Gäste und einen Kugelgrill. Feuerholz und Grillkohle gibt es gratis! Dieses Ferienhaus ist eine echte Perle. Fachwerk, viel Holz, drei Etagen, zwei Bäder - hochwertig, ein Wohnzimmer mit kleiner Bibliothek, drei SZ und dazu hochwertiges Interieur. Die Küche ist unglaublich luxuriös und lässt absolut nichts vermissen. Hier hat sich der Vermieter selbst übertroffen und all das hinein gepackt, was er vermutlich selbst mag. Wir nehmen jedenfalls tolle Anregungen für unser eigenes Heim mit! Erwähnen möchten wir noch die zwei Parkplätze am Haus und dass unser Sohn (4 Jahre) ohne Gefahren im Garten spielen konnte. Danke lieber Robert, wir kommen sehr gern wieder. Unser Jahreswechsel in Obergurig war absolut perfekt! P.S. Das Restaurant "Alte Wassermühle" (ganze 30 Meter gegenüber) ist für Kochmuffel nur zu empfehlen!.auch.

Immer wieder!

sehr schön modernisiertes für diese Gegend typisches Umgebindehaus mit schönem, für Gästebedürfnisse perfekt geplantem Garten, den wir allerdings aufgrund des Dauerregens nicht genutzt haben. Das Haus selber ist sehr stilvoll und gemütlich eingerichtet, Küche voll ausgestattet. Werden sicher wieder kommen!
