Booked there for our daughter's birthday last year. According to the flyer, this should be under the theme 'Bibi&Tina'. There was nothing on the topic at allThe birthday child was not the focus of the event, the child's conclusion after the celebration was "that was the worst birthday". The supervisors were very unfriendly, everything had no atmosphere. We paid an extra €20 for a piñata - but it wasn't even available. Instead there was a chest with mini gummy bears in it. Huge profit.Even a year later, I'm still annoyed that I didn't give immediate feedback. Very bad. I'm a teacher myself, so I wouldn't wish such a cold birthday party on anyone.

We just took a short vacation there over the weekend and are absolutely thrilled!!! The Leo house left nothing to be desired. The whole yard is very clean and well maintained. The children were allowed to go everywhere, including the stables and our dog was allowed to run around with farm dogs. It was sooooooooo nice for all of us!!! We will remember this fondly for a long time ♡

We had an unforgettable family reunion at the Sodehof, from Friday to Sunday. With a total of 22 adults and 14 children, we had more than enough space in the beautiful, well-equipped holiday apartments. The event room with a fully equipped kitchen was a particular highlight and perfect for our large group. The entire farm is child-friendly, and both the little ones and the adults loved it. The warm atmosphere and the perfect facilities made our stay a real experience. We'd love to come back! Many thanks to the Sodehof Eins team!

We spent a few days on the farm.The location of the farm is great, lots of nature and undeveloped land far and wide.The yard is nice and big with modern apartments and houses.The rooms are nicely furnished, but as a family of 5 we probably got the smallest room.There are cows, dogs and great horses and ponies.As already mentioned here, we found Ms. Friedrich to be very reserved. There was no greeting or farewell for us either.Tamara, on the other hand, is the good soul of the farm for us. We had great conversations with her and felt more comfortable thanks to her.Conclusion: A large, beautiful yard. Great horses, unfortunately no big activities for children with the animalsGreat location

Just right for a relaxing holiday with children, the farm is very remote and therefore very quiet, you can safely let the children play outside on their own, but you can still see them from the balcony.The apartment was very nicely furnished and spacious, only the dining table might need to be replaced, but it's completely normal for something to get old after a lot of use.We took advantage of the pony offer for one day and it was just right for my children (3y/6y).We would be happy to come again.

We spent great and very relaxing days at Soodehof Eins with our toddler (3 years).The booking seemed a little disorganized and you have to organize activities yourself or speak to the employees on site. Once you've done this, everything works very well and even in the short term. There is no personal reception, but there is a telephone number and you get a detailed description of where to find everything.The employees are very friendly and the selection of offers is also good. For people inexperienced with horses, like us, a few more instructions would have been needed for pony riding and care. When we asked, we also received good instructions here. Our daughter was very happy with pony time, feeding calves, making waffles and having a campfire with marshmallows.The playground is nicely laid out, but the trampoline could be replaced as the springs have no cover and the safety net is broken.But we really liked that the entire area was accessible and you got a detailed insight into the dairy farm. The dairy farmer Günther explained everything to us very well and as a guest you get the feeling that the people there enjoy working and live for their work.The highlight for us was that we sat down around the campfire with the other guests and employees for an evening and had a good exchange.We would book the Soodehof Eins again.

We had imagined something more like a farm.The apartment was very nice, the breakfast we booked was way too much. You don't need 2 liters of milk or 500 g of butter for two days, for 2 adults and a child. I hope that the leftovers are still used and not thrown away.Unfortunately there was no contact person on site. And there are no activities on the farm over the weekend.Ms. Schöneweiß was very nice on the phone.When we wanted to book activities by phone, Ms. Friedrich was not so friendly.For us it was a unique thing.But the landscape is very beautiful there.

On April 20th, 2024 I celebrated my birthday at “SOODEHOF Eins”. It is a fantastic location that leaves nothing to be desired. The party room is really modern and has an open kitchen. There is also a room intended for children. It's also great that many guests were able to sleep on site. The apartments are very nice. So all in all: Juliane and her team are simply fantastic! All the guests were also thrilled with the location. It's a shame that the weather didn't cooperate, otherwise the children would have had even more fun. A big thank you and keep it up!

It was a nice and relaxing short vacation. We and the children really enjoyed the idyllic farm. The landscape is well located here and you can go on many beautiful excursions. There are many animals on the farm and the owners and staff are very friendly. We'd love to come back.

We spent some wonderful days at Soodehof Eins and will definitely come back.The farm is beautifully situated between fields and forest, and the view from the bright and modern apartments alone is pure relaxation.The farm and the entire facility are very clean and tidy. With their always warm nature, the Friedrich family ensures that you don't miss anything and that all your wishes are catered for.There is a delicious breakfast with local and regional products (e.g. milk from our own dairy farm), many activities for young and old and, above all, lots of animals, great horses and riding lessons.The children were able to get to know country life, help out and experience a lot. From early in the morning they were in the horse stable and with the cows (including the birth of calves), on the playground and soccer field. Not only the children but we also really enjoyed the time with the horses and ponies and all the other animals.Thank you very much for a great, relaxed and loving break, the next stay is already booked 💕

My family vacation at the Sodehof was an all-round successful experience that I can warmly recommend to everyone. This idyllic farm offers the perfect mix of activities for children and relaxation for adults. Our children loved the opportunity to ride horses, pet calves and let off steam in the spacious playground. But we adults also got our money's worth: the sauna session was a highlight for relaxation and offered us a welcome break.What made our stay special was the warm and loving atmosphere that the host family and everyone on the farm spread. You immediately feel welcome and part of the farm community. It is this unique combination of family warmth, a variety of leisure activities and the opportunity to experience country life up close that makes the Sodehof a special place for a family holiday.Whether for little adventurers who love animals and want to explore nature, or for adults who are looking for relaxation and want to enjoy country life at the same time - the Sodehof offers something for everyone. A big thank you to the hosts for this unforgettable break.

SoodehofEins-where childhood memories awaken and children's dreams come true.We spent a week's vacation here and thought it was beautiful. Our holiday apartment “Soodetal” was really great. The sleeping loft... an absolute highlight of this holiday apartment. Juliane and Günther Friedrich are absolute people from the heart who run Soodehof Eins with so much love and empathy. We took a farm tour with farmer Günther which was sensationally informative. Touching was expressly permitted here. Which of course was taken advantage of with the calves. We booked the pony children's time once for our daughter (4). Here the little ones were first allowed to groom the horses, then they took turns riding and leading the horses. Juliane is a really great, very empathetic riding instructor. She is great with the individual children and also moms😉😁.At the end, the children were allowed to feed the horses and then they went to the cowshed and to the calves, which was a huge hit with the mice. The conclusion then took place on the playground. A very successful afternoon.We can't write everything down in words, just go there yourself, it's really worth it. We will definitely come back.

Dear Juliane and her entire team made it possible for us to make our wedding our most beautiful day 🥰We were supported in planning, designing, setting up and organizing, serving, baking, decorating and everything else that goes with it.The best thing about it was the family atmosphere, which also made it possible to celebrate together 😊We would like to say a huge thank you to you and thank you from the bottom of our hearts that we were able to develop so freely in everything and that it was a mega celebration 💪🙃

We booked the house, an apartment and a room for a weekend for a family reunion and were very satisfied! All accommodations were clean and comfortably furnished. There was even a great selection of games. The communication in advance was wonderful and our individual wishes were taken into account and implemented perfectly. The childcare with the ponies was also very good and the children were thrilled. We had also booked riding lessons, and it might be interesting that they weren't necessarily individual lessons, but rather the children took turns on the ponies. The meal we booked (2x breakfast and 1x barbecue) was very well prepared and very tasty! There are several opportunities on the farm for larger groups to meet up to eat together. There is a lounge with great games that can be used. The playground is beautifully designed and offers enough space and activity for many children. We had a great, interesting tour of the farm and we took a tractor ride to the nearby nature reserve. Here too, the hosts were super nice and gave us information about the area and prepared a great picnic. Just information in advance that you have to call once upon arrival to find out exactly where the accommodation is (the key is there) would have been good, but that's how you figure it out if you don't find anyone at first. Overall, we felt very comfortable and would love to come back!
