Our romantic country house with its 4 spacious rooms and the new bathroom is located directly below the castle Pappenheim.

The living room Our romantic country house is located directly below the castle Pappenheim, with a beautiful view over the city and the Altmühltal. The house is ideal to use the many and varied leisure activities of the Altmühltal. The house was extensively renovated from 2016 to 2018 without losing its original character. The kitchen has a small but fully equipped kitchen and a wood-fired kitchen stove. The cozy corner seat offers space for the entire family and is ideal for eating, playing and crafting. On the couch next door you can read and relax wonderfully. From the kitchen you have access to the completely redesigned bathroom with rain shower. The downstairs bedroom has a 1.80m wide ironbed and woodburning stove. Upstairs there are two living / bedrooms: The "nursery" with high ceiling, two single beds and sofa bed and the "castle room" with a beautiful view of the castle and a large single bed. Both rooms have a desk and other high quality amenities. The castle room also has its own wood-burning stove. The timeless built-in furniture throughout the house is massive and was fitted by the previous owner, a regionally known master carpenter, in the 50s / 60s. During the renovation of the house, we have taken great care that these built-in furniture remain intact. The well-filled library in the Treppenheus is at your disposal for your holiday reading. You will also find in the house a large selection of social and card games, with which you can make good use of the time together with your family.
Access for guests We, the house owners, live in Munich and use the house in Pappenheim as a weekend house and retreat. Guests are always welcome and can use the house in full.
Other important information The house is in good condition, but it is old. In its origins it reaches into the end of the 18th / beginning of the 19th. Century back. Some soil, some wall is crooked and in the floorboards, which we have uncovered during the renovation, was already so many woodworm guests. Nevertheless, we personally like the character of the house as it is very good. We hope that you too will appeal to this authenticity.
We went to a great deal of trouble renovating the house and invested a lot to make it as it is now. We appreciate it if you appreciate this and treat the house accordingly. The house will surely repay you with a nice stay and lasting memories. We are also happy about families with small children, but we would like to point out that the equipment (wood stoves, open staircase, garden wall, etc.) requires the appropriate attention of the supervisors and we can not assume any liability for unseen supervision. Please also note that we have a pet (cat) that lives temporarily in the house. Maybe that's why the house is not suitable for allergy sufferers.

Location near to city centre is very nice. Lot of hiking and bike trails near. There is small but nice yard at the house. We enjoyed our visit and I hope to visit again.

Quaint and quiet country house in a perfect location close to the castle.
We found the house to be the perfect base to visit a number of historical locations. We were within driving distance to even do a long day trip as far as Austria and the Neuschwanstein Castle. The washing machine was a great addition! Harburg castle, Rothenburg ob Tauber, and Nuremberg were all close. The house is also just a short walk from town with a wonderful bakery, meat shop, and beautiful quaint stores. Thank you Thomas and Ursula!
We had a very enjoyable and relaxing stay in this characterful house with modern comforts, artwork and vintage charm. Pappenheim is steeped in history and very pleasant to walk around, the foot spa is a unique feature-freezing cold but effective! The castle is also worth a visit for its history and views. There are interesting villages and towns within easy driving distance, further afield you can reach the alps in a couple of hours. The churches are particularly beautiful inside which was a real surprise. After any trip we were always happy to return “home” and enjoy the ambience of the house and sitting in the garden every evening.
Sehr liebevoll eingerichtetes originelles Ferienhaus! Balkon überdacht und Terrasse mit Sonnenschutz. Herrlicher Blick über Pappenheim in die umliegenden Berge. Fußweg in den Ort 5 Minuten. Öfen und Holz für kühle Tage vorhanden. Was will das Herzchen mehr? Unbedingt zu empfehlen für Individualisten! Und eine super nette Gastgeberin! Und eine umfangreiche Bibliothek, die für mehrere Jahre reichen würde! Ein Schrank voller Spiele. Unbedingt zu empfehlen! Danke danke.
Das Haus war sehr gemütlich, sauber und liegt sehr nett vor der Burg. Ein netter Garten am Hang bietet Nette Sitzplätze. Man ist schnell im Ort mit netter Gastronomie. Wir wanderten auf dem Altmühl-Panoramaweg und wohnten im Ferienhaus. So konnten wir täglich frei entscheiden, welche Etappe oder lieber Kultur.
Uns hat es sehr gut gefallen. Das Haus ist schon etwas besonderes, individuelles. Das macht aber den Charme des Hauses aus. Wir haben uns viel in der gemütlichen Wohnküche aufgehalten. Auch die Schlafzimmer im Obergeschoss sind wundervoll eingerichtet. Anfänglich war uns etwas kalt, aber schnell hatten wir den Bogen mit den einzelnen Öfen und der Wandheizung raus. Mit der Vermieterin hielten wir guten Kontakt, auf Fragen reagierte sie sehr schnell und hilfsbereit. Wir können das Haus nur empfehlen!
Liebevoll eingerichtetes Ferienhaus mit schönem Garten. Sogar Liegen, Sonnenschirm und Grill waren vorhanden.
Wir haben die Zeit sehr genossen und uns gut erholt.
Wir hatten zu zweit viel Platz im Haus. Es war alles vorhanden was man braucht. Das Haus ist liebevoll eingerichtet und mit vielen Bildern dekoriert. Wir haben jeden Morgen auf dem kleinen Balkon gefrühstückt.
Der Ort ist klein, aber man bekommt alles was man so braucht.
Die Landschaft ist wunderschön und man hat ziemlich direkt vor der Haustür Wanderwege.
Alles in Allem waren wir sehr zufrieden.
Erholsamer Urlaub in einer urgemütlichen Wohnung ,die keine Wünsche offen ließ.Alles gut zu Fuß zu erreichen und eine große Auswahl an Infomaterial für die Freizeitgestaltung vorhanden .Haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen .
Sauberes, gut ausgestattetes Ferienhaus in schöner Lage direkt unterhalb der Burg Pappenheim. Wir (Ehepaar) haben unseren Aufenthalt dort (9 Nächte) sehr genossen. Self-Check-In war problemlos. Die Vermieterin versorgte uns vor der Anreise mit allen wichtigen Information und einigen guten Tipps für unseren Aufenthalt.
Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt.
Alles wie in der Beschreibung. Zur Überraschung ein zweites WC vorhanden.
Lage super zentral, aber ruhige Lage. Optimal, wenn man gut zu Fuß ist. Das Haus hat einen besonderen Charme durch den knarrenden Dielenboden und die moderne Einrichtung in Verbindung mit alten 'Schätzen'. Kein gewöhnliches Haus.
Ein schönes Häuschen als Mittelpunkt für erholsame Tage
Ein sehr liebevoll renoviertes Haus in Topplage. Zum Wandern braucht man nur aus der Tür gehen und ist angekommen. Zum Baden ins Freibad braucht man nur aus der Tür gehen und ist angekommen. Zum Geschichte erleben braucht man nur aus der Tür gehen und ist angekommen. Zum Erholen braucht man nur zur Tür hineingehen und ist angekommen.
