The historic half-timbered house from 1693 offers you the perfect combination of state-of-the-art furnishings and the charm of past times. Experience your stay in a very special ambience.

The space
Spend an unforgettable time in the historic cottage and be enchanted by the atmosphere of past times!

Experience the special flair of the house, characterized by its original architecture and historical details.

The equipment leaves nothing to be desired: enjoy the amenities of a fully equipped kitchen, a (cooking)fireplace, comfortable and huge "farm beds" made of solid, 300-year-old wooden beams and modern bathrooms.

Although the "Haus Christine" has lived through for a few centuries and is one of the oldest houses in Schalkau, you do not have to sacrifice any comfort.

In the middle of a 200 sqm half-timbered house and two apartments, it is particularly pleasant to live – whether alone, as a family or in a group of up to 10 people.

The courtyard was completed in June 2023.

The modern furnishings with sound and heat insulated windows, large bathrooms with glass elements, the cozy warmth of a wooden stove on the ground floor, a historic flair and free, fast Wi-Fi are just a few features of the vacation apartments.

The apartments are equipped with double and single beds, sofa beds, modern and large bathrooms with shower and toilet.

A large TV streaming options as well as fast internet provide entertainment for all ages.

The common room on the ground floor of the guesthouse offers enough seating for a shared meal or a cozy game evening. In addition

The great thing: to Coburger Land you only drive 15-20 minutes, as well as to Sonneberg (15 min) or Rennsteig (30-40 min).

On the ground floor there is a third bathroom as well as a single room (from 10 people). In addition, a large kitchen and a common room for eating or gathering together, including modern speaker system from "Teufel" and large smart TV (Youtube Premium pre-installed, Netflix and Prime possible with your own account. TV does not have a satellite/cable connection).

Guest access
You have access to two floors: first floor and middle floor, each with two apartments with private bathrooms, as well as a single room on the ground floor with private bathroom (from 10 people). A large kitchen with kitchenette (firewood operated), dishwasher and oven/stove is also available.

Hi! I am a computer scientist and work for a telecommunications company in North Rhine-Westphalia. I'm a straightforward, open-minded guy who loves to travel. I try to make my guests as comfortable as possible in the historic half-timbered house. I get a lot of support from my mom who will probably be your co-host. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me - I am always available!
