"Holiday Home Sophie" is located in the Harz region, specifically in the Rieder district of the town of Ballenstedt, directly on a mountain slope. The house offers enough space for a family.
It is in a quiet and quaint location. This is the perfect way to relax from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and enjoy nature. Thanks to its hillside location, you have a fantastic view of the surroundings, including the city of Quedlinburg, a World Heritage Site, which was recently crowned the "most beautiful half-timbered town in Germany". A special highlight of this holiday home is the sauna, which warms you up again after a long hike, bike or ski tour. There is a tool shed for your bikes that can accommodate up to four bikes. You can also charge your e-bike or pedelec in the equipment room.
Excursions in the immediate vicinity include the collegiate church in Gernrode and Roseburg or Ballenstedt Castles. If heading further afield, there are also the Thale Erlebniswelt cable cars, Rappbode dam, Rübeland stalactite caves, Pullman City Harz or the Brocken.
The Harz region also offers extensive year-round hiking. By collecting hiking stamps and hiking pins, even the youngest among you will be motivated. Tasks vary depending on length and difficulty. You can get more information from us on site.
Please note that the house is only heated with wood and the large tiled stove in the fireplace room. Wood and any corresponding materials will be provided.

Expenses related to charging an electric or hybrid car (when possible) are always charged according to use and separately
