Description
The cabin full of stars, which we affectionately call the “Star Cabin,” is located right next to the Heidschnucken pasture. Here you can sleep soundly, cook a simple meal, and make yourselves comfortable…😊. The cabin stands in the meadow behind our farm, offering an unobstructed view of the countryside. There are also parking spots for our camper guests scattered across the large meadow. The Star Cabin is more of a “glamping” accommodation than a vacation home and does not have a bathroom. A shower, toilets, and a large sink for washing dishes are located in the restroom building 55 meters away, which is also used by our camping guests. Our 400-year-old farm is located on the outskirts of Wachendorf, at the foot of the northern Eifel. Here you’ll find plenty of space on the large, grassy meadow, a campfire in the evening, a clay sauna, products from our Heidschnucken sheep, barbecue packages, and chilled drinks. We look forward to seeing you! Amenities The cabin is equipped with a spacious double bed and two sofa units (sleeping surface: 67x150 cm and 67x195 cm), which can be used as additional beds. Bedding and towels are included. The cabin features a kitchenette with a 2-burner hotplate, a standard refrigerator, and a dining table, as well as basic kitchenware including pots and pans, a kettle, a knife, cooking spoons, a selection of teas, a coffee pot (French press), dishes, glasses, and cutlery for 4 people. Fresh water and a sink are available in the restroom building, 55 m away. There is a 20-liter canister of drinking water in the cabin. (If anything is missing, please let us know; we live on the farm and can usually help.) Outdoors & Fire Pit On the large, freshly mowed lawn, all our guests get together and socialize. You can lie in the sun there, relax, play, and use the fire pit and grill. A table, chairs, and a lovely umbrella are available exclusively for you right next to the Star Cabin. There is a communal fire pit 15 m from the cabin. A wheelbarrow full of firewood is available for €15. Sanitary building The restroom building is 55 m away and is also used by our camping guests. There is a very nice & spacious open-air shower, naturally with cold & hot water and comfortable privacy screens, a large sink, and separate restrooms with sinks for women and men. In addition, an indoor shower with a unisex toilet is available in the courtyard building. The clay sauna We built our sauna ourselves; it is heated with a wood-burning stove. You can wonderfully enjoy the pleasant warmth radiating from the thick clay walls while looking out into the garden. We offer the sauna for exclusive use at a flat rate of €70. This includes: wood for the fire, lighting and heating the sauna, as well as instruction on how to use it. Food and Drink The large refrigerator in the shed is stocked with cold beverages—from regional beer to Fritz-Schorle—available for self-service at reasonable prices. We also offer products from our white-horned Heidschnucken sheep and other items for grilling. In cooperation with a small local bakery, we provide a delivery service for fresh rolls. About Us We are sound instrument builders, designers, and multi-craftsmen. For nearly 30 years, we have lived and worked here on the farmstead in the Eifel, a historic, listed half-timbered square farmstead whose oldest building is approximately 400 years old. The Workshop & Store The farmstead is home to our workshop for musically tuned chimes. Here you can get a glimpse into the production of our handmade chimes and musical instruments. In the workshop store, you can play, try things out, and discover beautiful items. Our handmade chimes are available here at an exclusive workshop discount; you’ll also find gongs and singing bowls, musical instruments from around the world, all sorts of items for playing and decorating, and our large, cozy “Sterne” collection. The White Horned Heidschnucken Our herd is outdoors all year round. By raising them, we make an important contribution to the preservation of traditional livestock. You can purchase sausages, meat, hides, and other products directly from us on-site. Upon request, we’d be happy to send you a list of everything currently available.
