About this property

Waldidyll. In one of the largest forest areas in Germany, near Berlin and Potsdam.

The eco-friendly wooden house (leather upholstered furniture) on 800 sqm (officially 4 ****) has 3 bedrooms and 1 living room with integrated, fully equipped kitchen on 50 sqm floor space plus a usable for leisure, relaxation, television and sleeping gallery (about 20 square meters).

The "Domicile Katharina" is ecologically heated with a soapstone stove and has a switchable electric underfloor heating (the only item with an extra cost / 0.30 Euro / kWh). It is convenient to use all year round. In the warmer season, the terrace offers. There are a solid wood sofa and a brick barbecue. 1 to 6 people will feel comfortable. The landlord couple lives in the adjoining property, welcomes guests from other countries and speaks different languages.

The greatest asset of the area are closed woodland with fresh air, solitude and many seasonal mushrooms. Nearby are Brandenburg bathing lakes, an outdoor swimming pool in 3 and a thermal baths 25 km away. Completely underestimated by tourists, lies south of the ridge of Fläming. Berlin and Potsdam (by train in 45/60 minutes) attract with their unique sights. The Wörlitz-Dessau Garden Kingdom, the Lutherstadt Wittenberg, the venerable Brandenburg and the Cistercian monastery Lehnin are to be conquered in day trips. This with quick accessibility via the A 2, A 9 and A 10, by train from the neighboring Borkheide or from the airport Berlin-Schönefeld. In Borkwalde there are 1 bistro and 2 restaurants with home cooking.

The "Domicile Katharina" is fenced. It provides linen (weekly) and towels as needed. The final cleaning is not charged. We pay attention to environmentally friendly handling, so u. a. on waste prevention and waste separation. Slippers are ready.

kleines Schmuckstück
Super schönes kleines Häuschen mitten in der Natur. Perfekt um den Alltagsstress zu entfliehen. Wir haben eine Unterkunft für nur eine Nacht gesucht - dies war hier überhaupt kein Problem. Man hat alles was man braucht. Wir werden auf jeden Fall wieder kommen.

Wonderful stay in the woods!
We had a wonderful stay in the log cabin style house, which included a beautiful setting in the woods, outdoor seating, and a well equipped kitchen. The beds were very comfortable and our stay was very relaxing. The train station is 2 km away, which made it very easy for us to visit Berlin. We were greeted very warmly when we arrived and the owners are right next door if anything is needed. This location is highly recommended and we would love to return if we visit the area again.

Keurig vakantiehuis
Netjes verzorgd, lekker in de natuur, goed buitenzwembad vlakbij en in een half uurtje onbezorgd in centrum Berlijn met de trein. Enige punt van mogelijke verbetering: horren en gordijnen op de bovenverdieping. Al met al een heerlijke week gehad.

Absolut empfehlenswert!
Wir haben 12 wunderschöne Tage in diesem schönen Haus verbringen dürfen. Die Vermieter waren sehr nett und bemüht uns einen schönen Aufenthalt zu ermöglichen. Wir waren mit 5 Personen zu Gast, 2 Erwachsene mit drei Kindern zwischen 5-9 Jahren. Das Grundstück liegt absolut ruhig im Wald. Keine befestigten Straßen. Wir haben wunderschöne Spaziergänge dort machen können. Die Kinder konnten auf dem Grundstück frei spielen. Ich möchte diverse Dinge noch zusätzlich hervorheben, die aus dem Inserat gar nicht ersichtlich sind. Es ist eine Waschmaschine im Haus vorhanden (Goldwert für uns!). Ein Fön ist vorhanden, Handtücher wurden in diversen Größen und ausreichender Menge bereitgestellt und nach einer Woche gewechselt. Bettwäsche wurde ebenfalls bereitgestellt. Es ist nicht nur Internet Vorhanden sondern auch WLAN. Das alles war kostenfrei! Wir haben die Nähe zu Potsdam und Berlin fast täglich ausgenutzt. So konnte man nach einem schönen Sonnenfrühstück auf der Terrasse im Wald in die Stadt fahren und den Rummel erleben. Für uns der Perfekte Mix. Ein rundherum gelungener Urlaub. Vielen Dank dafür

The perfect place to stay for exploring both Berlin and its surroundings
We (2 adults and 3 kids) will strongly recommend this cabin to anyone in need of a clean and safe stay for exploring both Berlin, Potsdam and Berlin's surroundings. The cabin is situated only 5-6 min. drive to a station on the S-bahn that in 45 minutes takes you straigjht into the very center of Berlin. The cabin itself is clean, spacious and with all conceivable appliances. Some minutes drive from the cabin we found a small lake where we went swimming every night of our stay. It is also very easy to get to Potsdam, by train or by car. Highly recommended!!
