We stayed there as a family of five for one night on the Harzer Hexenstieg. Dinner and breakfast were very tasty, the rooms were simple but cozy, nice and lovingly furnished. Everything was fresh, fragrant and clean. You can tell that this house is run with a lot of love. We didn't arrive on our hike until after kitchen time in the evening. With a lot of self-confidence, dinner was still prepared for us and we were able to eat it in peace. Clear recommendation.

Very nice, hard-working couple. Rooms simple but functional, unfortunately not that clean. The house is in a fantastic location and is in great shape. Menu simple - price performance average. Breakfast was great! We would come back.
