In these days of economic gloom and volatile exchange rates, it is good to know that holidays in the Bavarian Forest still offer amazing value for money.

 

Our best 5 star apartments in the peak summer season cost about €25 per person per night. Of peak, the price can be just  under €20 per person per night. And the rent includes an unusual number of extras in the price:

(Bathrobes, slippers and swimming/sauna towels are also provided free of charge).

You can use our table tennis, table football, pool table, darts, DVDs and CDs and small gym free of charge. (We make a small charge for use of our mountain bikes and sauna).

 

The best restaurants in the area can provide a substantial main course plus a half litre of beer or quarter litre of wine for under €15. Or you can book a 3 course meal at the best restaurant in the village for €12 per person (drinks are extra and some dishes have a small surcharge).
