Ponies
Our ponies are glad of visitors. Pony rides can be arranged, and with the family package they are free on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
On the farm
Things to Do Nearby
There is plenty to discover on our farm: ponies and goats, a large playground, a football pitch, a games corner with table tennis and billiards, and two paths around the grounds – past the conservation hedge, the pond, the miscanthus field and the horse paddock. Pony rides can be arranged.
Goats
The goats in the barn are a favourite with children – and always curious.
Cattle
Our cattle graze in the meadow beside the farm.
Playground
A big playground with a climbing frame and swings, right by the house.
Football pitch
Our own football pitch – balls are available at reception.
Sauna & hot tub
To warm up after a day outdoors – bookable on request.
Two walking paths
Our site plan
A short path of about 700 metres and a long one of around 5 kilometres lead across the grounds and through the fields – past the conservation hedge, the pond, the miscanthus field, the horse paddock and the riding arena.
Key
The long path is marked in red, the short one in yellow. The red cross marks where you are – in the middle of the car park.
For riders
Riding arena open to visiting riders
Our riding arena is not just for the horses on the farm: visiting riders are welcome to use it too.
An hour costs €10 per rider. All we need is a word in advance – so that two groups do not turn up at once and the arena is free when you arrive. A phone call is enough.
On the site plan above, the riding arena is number 11.
Book the riding arena: +49 (0) 3731 / 247812
Arriving by motorhome or with a trailer? We have a campsite on the farm.
