The cake tasted excellent. The prices are fair. Unfortunately there are very limited opening times and the café was full around 2:30 p.m. The service was a bit overwhelmed with the many guests.

It's so nice that my daughter wants to stay here forever. It is a perfect place for families with children. Everything is neat from the parking lot, throughout the gardens, as well as the inner courtyard. There is a lot of love in the details. The main house has a great ambience, it is a perfect combination of old and new. While you are still having breakfast in the cafe, the children can make friends in the courtyard and play with numerous tricycles etc.The ponies are trusting and proper handling is taught right from the start. There is its own coffee roastery and very delicious cakes.

We spent our summer vacation here and are thrilled.The entire yard is very neat and well maintained. You can find loving details everywhere. There is an inner courtyard where there are special vehicles for children. Delicious bread baking takes place there once a week. In the large garden there is plenty of play equipment and also loungers for parents. There are even more pedal vehicles for the children at the stable.The apartment was completely sufficient for 2 adults and 2 small children. There was everything you need. The apartment itself was very clean and newly renovated.The animals were all very fond of children. Whether it's the ponies on a horseback ride or the rabbits, they like to be fed dandelions by the children.Three generations live on the Birkenhof, all of whom are very helpful, friendly and very personable. There is always someone on site with an open ear.We had a lovely holiday with very tasty food and would love to come back next year.
