We are a family of 6 with 4 girls between the ages of 3 and 9 years old. We spent 2 weeks on the farm. I have never had such a relaxing holiday. The farm is an absolute dream for children. At the Bächle you can catch frogs, splash around, damm them up (and crawl through the pipe under the street to the goats in the neighbor's enclosure ;-) - pure adventure). In the evening the calves can be fed and the eggs can be stolen from the chickens. We couldn't miss this evening event even once. There is also a trampoline, a vehicle park and a straw bouncy barn, among other things. In addition, we were lucky that we had lots of nice, pleasant fellow guests on the farm and the girls always had additional play partners (and we adults were also able to have a good chat). Some of our girls didn't even have time to eat ("Mommy, can we go out again right away?!"). They were able to go out and play without any worries while we were still tidying up the kitchen, for example. There was enough space in the apartment for the 6 of us and we felt very comfortable there. We didn't miss anything. The girls thought it would be great to spoon their pudding out of a cup because, for example, there weren't 6 bowls. However, this is “complaining” at a high level. It actually didn't bother us, everything important was there and we didn't book a hotel or anything like that... Ms. Eichenseher was always approachable and seemed to be constantly working. Great respect for what she achieves, sets up and organizes. My impression is that she is simply honest about what she thinks, and even though that may be too direct for some - we really appreciated that way. Just a quick note about the surroundings: we all really liked the Weiden thermal baths and the rock labyrinth was also a highlight.Conclusion: Highly recommended for families with children!

We are currently on the way back from our week-long vacation at Mrs. Eichenseher's holiday farm. We took away a lot of impressions and I would like to write them down in as much detail as possible. First of all: we moved into the Obstgarten holiday apartment with 3 children (2 babies and an 8 year old) and 2 adults. There was enough space and Ms. Eichenseher thought in advance that it would be a good fit for our configuration and that we could all sleep properly. The apartment was absolutely child-safe except for small details and we didn't miss anything in terms of furnishings. The whole thing was furnished exactly as described, was clean and had all sorts of tips and information on the pin board in the apartment. Over the course of the week we were able to immerse ourselves in the world of full-scale agricultural operations and see how things work under absolutely realistic conditions. If you're not prepared to unpack rubber boots and mud pants, you have no place on the farm. There was a lot going on with cows, chickens, horses and donkeys, cats and rabbits, ducks and all sorts of play options and it was better to pack a portion of extra clothes. Ms. Eichenseher also offers a washing machine and a dryer if things become scarce. In addition to bread rolls, you could also buy honey, jam, freshly milked milk and drinks on the farm. We didn't miss anything. The garden and courtyard were lovingly furnished with lots of flowers, idyllic, rural. Some of it is probably a bit older but that doesn't take away from the fun. Is just the way.The only thing that was actually a bit annoying were the flies. They are part of the yard but in the apartment they are very annoying and since the days were very oppressively warm you had to choose between annoying heat or annoying flies. You could perhaps create even more freedom for ventilation with one or two fly screen doors on the balcony door.But now something personal that really moved me during the week and made the vacation something really special for me personally. If you take the trouble to immerse yourself in the hostess' situation, observe her hard work and take away the expectations of service that are unfortunately often too commonplace and get to know this woman personally, you will discover much more than just a holiday apartment. We learned so much more through conversations and short small talks and got tips and tricks. We got homemade apple strudel, when I got sick one day she offered to bring me something from the pharmacy, and at the campfire she brought home-made dough for stick bread. There's a really great, upright power woman with a lot of humanity behind her, who you can get to know if you come with humanity and not arrogance. Unfortunately, this is forgotten far too often. Dear Ms. Eichenseher, I would like to take this opportunity to personally thank you again for the great care and the wonderful vacation. Stay healthy!

We had a lovely time here and enjoyed it too. Ms. Eichenseher was friendly and happy to give tips on what to do in the area. You could have bread rolls and other things delivered if you wanted. The holiday apartment was furnished in a farmhouse style and the kitchen was fully equipped. If you are looking for luxury or top modern furnishings, you should book an expensive hotel. This wouldn't be authentic and wouldn't be possible on a farm. And that's exactly how we wanted it and you should be aware of that.Every day we visited the donkey and pony and also checked on the chickens. In the evening you could look after the calves in the stable. The cuddly kittens also melted our hearts.Our son (9) spent hours every day with the other children outside by the stream, on the trampoline or in the play barn. There was also a fleet of vehicles for small and large children.We had a good mix of peace and experiences here.We wish Ms. Eichenseher all the best and thank you for the relaxing time!

Because we liked it so much last year, we spent our vacation again this year on Mrs. Eichenseher's farm and had a very nice time again! The small stream, the beautiful playground, the animals, the play barn - all of this offered the children so many opportunities to have a great time, so that we parents also had time to relax. We felt very comfortable again in the comfortably furnished holiday apartment.There are many great excursion options in the area, so we were able to spend another two weeks here with completely new tours.Ms. Eichseher was once again a very warm and friendly host. Once she even brought us homemade strawberry cake and we also really enjoyed her homemade jams and fresh eggs.We went home relaxed and excited and say thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

Together with friends and our 7-year-old son, we booked a short vacation from April 28th, 2023 to May 1st, 2023 with Ms. Eichenseher.Unfortunately, when we entered the large holiday apartment, we felt anything but on holiday or welcome: the holiday apartment seemed uncleaned, there were toothbrush residues and hair stuck in the sink, there was drinking packet foil and garlic peels on the kitchen table, there was hair and dirt in many corners; Bags were lined up/stacked on the large terrace to stop water, the dining table and chairs were wobbly and could no longer support an adult; The trash can in the bathroom was broken and the lid was broken. Many things were neither maintained nor clean, and some were even defective.When we were asked about our problem, we were not offered any help but were advised to leave; we should dare to write a bad review, otherwise a lawyer will be hired.We left disappointed that same evening; Luckily we only had a 2 hour drive home.In addition, after the first review was published at the beginning of October 2023, Ms. Eichenseher forced us several times by email, threatening to call a lawyer and initiate dunning proceedings, to pay a compensation invoice and to delete our objectively written review.Unfortunately, this was deleted due to the attached images, as photos appear to be a violation of Google's guidelines.We are now trying again with a review of the holiday farm as we experienced it at this time in order to point it out to future guests.

We decided on the Eichenseher holiday farm because of the many positive reviews and booked 6 days there during the autumn holidays. All in all it was a nice and relaxing vacation. BUT I deliberately gave myself a lot of time for the review because I left there very frustrated and certainly wouldn't have been able to judge objectively for a while.I separate the assessment into children and adults.From the children's perspective: The children had a lot of fun. Everything was taken care of, the garden with climbing frames and trampoline was right next to the mud stream and the pony paddock, the pet cat ran around. On the farm there was a whole fleet of toy vehicles for all ages, a sandpit, a playhouse and a bunny hutch. For me, one of the reasons for booking - the play barn with a slide into the straw! The kids loved them! Also the calf feeding session in the evening and the campfire evening with stick bread that Mrs. Eichenseher had prepared.From an adult perspective: The apartment was furnished in a rustic style as described and was fully functional despite a few visible years of use. There was nothing missing in the kitchen or anywhere else. Due to the negative reviews regarding cleanliness, I explicitly took a closer look at the beginning and couldn't confirm them. Of course there is no hotel standard here, but we didn't expect that either. The play equipment all requires inspection. Everything is very worn out and can therefore only be used to a limited extent. The landlady's warmth is relative. Personally, the tone towards the children was too rough for me and the answers to children's questions or comments about animal husbandry were too harsh. She remained polite to us adults, but the service offered with bread rolls and farm products was bumpy and somehow accusatory/petulant. It's hard to describe, but we didn't actually feel welcome, more like we were a burden. Considering the fact that we paid quite a bit for the stay and the service offered, I find that a strange feeling. For me, the absolute negative crown was that of my 3 older children, only 1 received a lollipop as a thank you for the daily stable work when saying goodbye and the other 2 were coldly dismissed with tears of incomprehension - without any explanation! Of course, at this point I can't demand that each of my children gets presents, but I can and do ask for the upbringing of my children myself and the innkeeper clearly wanted to reward or punish something that we didn't even want to do knew what it was. It's a shame actually. I hope Ms. Eichenseher just had a bad week and that unfortunately we were the ones who suffered.

We spent a wonderful two weeks at the holiday farm and were all very sad when we left. We will definitely come back!The farm is beautifully located on the edge of the Fichtelgebirge and offers numerous, wonderful excursions into the surrounding area. There is also a great bike rental shop in the town itself, where we were able to rent e-bikes with trailers, which means that a car is not necessarily needed, especially since the farm can also be easily reached by train and there is a large supermarket in the town itself .The farm itself is a small idyll for adults and children with the many animals, all of which can be fed by the children, with the small stream that flows past the farm and where you can bathe your feet, with the trampoline, the many swings , the play barn, the evening calf feeding, pony riding, the stick bread fire and much more.You can also buy the farm's own jam, eggs and milk and bread rolls are delivered daily, so you don't even need to go to the supermarket for a delicious breakfast.The holiday apartments are beautiful, cozy, well-equipped and have a really good price-performance ratio. Many of the apartments have a good view of the yard, so the children can play outside on their own while you rest or prepare dinner. :)Less than 2km away there is a beautiful swimming lake with a fenced off non-swimmer area. What more could you want?We were also very lucky that we got along really well with two other families who were holidaying there, so the children often roamed around the yard together, visited each other in the holiday apartments on rainy days and we adults enjoyed eating cake together drank coffee.Just last night our daughter said that she thinks a lot about the good times she had on the farm and we can only agree with her!

We had a great week at the Mühlenhof. Unfortunately the weather was very wet, but we still made the best of it. Every morning we treaded water in the small stream, every evening we all fed the calves together, this was a great experience. Our children also liked the other animals. There is a lot to discover and a lot of play equipment so even our 12 year old got her money's worth. The farmer's wife's homemade jam is really delicious and fresh eggs and rolls every day are just great. There was even fresh milk. We can really recommend the farm.

We spent our holidays on the Eichenseher family's lovingly run farm and had really great days. There are many attractions, especially for the kids, that make the day eventful and colorful. For us parents this resulted in an hour or two of rest :) the youngest quickly developed her routine and so we ran our rounds several times a day. Starting with the many swings, we then marveled at the cows, cuddled the cats, clucked with the chickens, ran barefoot through the stream and took a break on the trampoline. The surroundings are a dream and we enjoyed the evening walks along a quiet dirt path. The bread roll service, the fresh eggs and the wonderfully educational conversations with our lovely Mrs. Eichenseher made the vacation perfect! What do we take home with us? A good feeling and many new perspectives on healthy farming with valuable food. We'll be happy to come back <3 thanks for everything!
