True silence
No road noise, no through traffic. Only the rippling of the waterways, the call of the birds – and the silence you can barely find in Germany anymore. Five minutes from the car park, a world away from everyday life.
Listed buildings
All three houses are protected heritage buildings. The oldest dates back to 1750 – renovated with a love of historical detail and the height of modern comfort.
Right on the water
Private harbour, terraces directly on the waterway, jetty. You wake up and hear the water – every morning.
Everything included
Final cleaning, bed linen, towels, electricity, heating, Wi-Fi, sauna, car park – no hidden extras, no utility bill shock.
Sustainably operated
Electricity from photovoltaics, heat from geothermal energy (99 m depth). We protect the biosphere reserve we live in.
Personal support
No hotel chain, no call centre. We are your point of contact – before and during your holiday, direct and personal.
Activities around the house
Punt trips on the waterways, canoeing on almost 1,000 km of waterways, cycling on the Gurkenradweg, fishing, hiking through the biosphere reserve or simply enjoying the silence. In winter, when the waterways freeze over, the ice skates come out.
Culinary delights in the Spreewald
Spreewald cucumbers, linseed oil with jacket potatoes, fresh carp from the waterway – the regional cuisine is unmistakable. We recommend our favourite restaurants and pubs in the area.
Flora & Fauna
The UNESCO Spreewald Biosphere Reserve is home to over 18,000 animal and plant species. Green woodpecker, jay and kingfisher are frequent visitors to our property. If you're lucky, you'll spot the rare white-tailed eagle.
Travel & location
Lehde is located approx. 100 km south-east of Berlin (approx. 1 hrs by car), 90 km from Dresden and 45 km from Cottbus. By train, travel to Lübbenau/Spreewald, from there you can get to Lehde by punt or on foot.
What is included in the price?
The rental price is an all-inclusive price with no surprises: final cleaning, all operating costs (electricity, heating, water), bed linen, towels, tea towels, sauna use, baby equipment (travel cot and high chair) as well as a car park directly on the property are included. No additional costs are incurred.
What is the minimum booking length?
In peak season (Easter/April to All Saints' Day as well as Christmas to Epiphany) the minimum stay is 5 nights. In off-peak season it is 3 nights. Please check the booking calendar for available dates.
Can all three houses be booked at the same time?
Yes. If you are travelling with a larger group, you can book all three houses at the same time – then you will have the entire island property to yourselves. Ideal for family celebrations or parties with friends. Feel free to contact us directly.
Are pets allowed?
Unfortunately not. Out of consideration for all guests and the well-kept condition of the houses, we do not allow pets.
How do I get to Lehde – are there car parks?
Each holiday home has its own car park at the entrance to Lehde. From there, you can carry your luggage on foot in approx. 5–10 minutes or by punt directly to the houses. Lehde is a village without car traffic – you bring your luggage on foot (5 min.) or by punt.
When is the Bienenhaus available?
The Bienenhaus is only available in the summer half-year: from April to All Saints' Day as well as over Christmas to Epiphany. In the shoulder season it cannot be heated and is therefore not bookable. Haus anno 1750 and Die Scheune are available all year round.
Is there Wi-Fi in the houses?
Yes, all three houses have free Wi-Fi. Anyone who still wants to switch off – the Spreewald invites you to do so.
Is the Spreewald also worth visiting in winter?
Absolutely. In winter, the Spreewald transforms into a silent winter landscape. When the waterways freeze over, ice skates are unpacked. Haus anno 1750 and Die Scheune are heated all year round and, with sauna and fireplace, are ideal for the cold season.
