Schwanennest in Alleinlage am See

Germany-35216 Biedenkopf
Nestled between the forest and the lake, surrounded by lush green meadows, you will find the 'Schwanennest' (Swan’s Nest). It is situated in a completely SECLUDED LOCATION, ensuring you have the entire place all to yourself. The cabin features a bedroom with a cozy double bed, a seating area, and a wood-burning stove. There is also plenty of space in the garden to pitch a tent for the kids. The fully equipped outdoor kitchen, featuring a two-burner stove, is located on the veranda with a dining area—which can be fully enclosed to keep out wind and rain! We provide fresh drinking water in canisters. Outside, you will also find a covered washing area with a camping shower and a waterless composting toilet. Food and drinks can be kept cool in the natural well-fridge. Trash cans are provided for your waste disposal. The garden is equipped with a traditional beach chair, a large stone table with benches, a campfire pit, and a grill. Furthermore, the property is completely fenced, making it ideal for a vacation with your dog. Two large trees provide ample shade. The Lahn Hiking Trail passes right by, and the lake is perfect for canoeing, paddling, and SUP (swimming is not permitted). A charming restaurant with an outdoor terrace and charging stations for e-bikes and cars is located on the lakeshore. A flat circular path leads around the lake, making it an ideal starting point for hikes and bike tours. The Schwanennest is also available for bookings in winter.

Everything is just perfect here! 🤩 Enjoying the sunset from the bed, so many lovely and practical details in the 'Schwanennest', a super great host, mega leisure opportunities, and a huge dog paradise with toys, stuffed animals, blankets... all on-site. 🥰 Thank you, dear Andrea, it was simply magical; we all felt completely welcome and comfortable right away and will definitely be back! 🦋🌷🫶🏽
The accommodation was very beautiful, lovingly furnished, and had everything we needed. We received a warm welcome and were given a detailed tour of everything, so no questions were left unanswered. We were more than satisfied and felt very much at home. Thanks to the fully fenced property in a quiet location, it was also perfect for our stay with our dogs, who enjoyed it just as much. Thank you :)!
Everything was top-notch. Very beautiful and quiet surroundings, the cabin and equipment were exactly as shown in the pictures, and the hosts are also very nice and friendly. Definitely recommended.
My dog Ola and I stayed at the Schwanennest in February and felt very much at home there. I can only agree with the other reviewers: the Schwanennest is a fantastic place, designed with both love and practicality! I highly recommend it even in winter during frost or rainy weather (I experienced both). Thanks to the stove, it was never too cold, and thanks to the drying rack, wet shoes and socks were always ready for use again the next day. The outdoor kitchen is amazing! A few tips for backpackers and those using public transport: the Schwanennest is very easy to reach (Breidenstein Schlossstraße stop), and from Wallau station, you can easily get to Marburg (for a city trip). You can also take a nice hike to Biedenkopf and take the train to Marburg from there... Groceries etc. can be found in Breidenbach, which is about a 30-minute walk away. Good things to pack: Crocs or similar shoes, a headlamp for reading or handicrafts, and a power bank (charging a phone outside at the charging station in the cold can be tricky). It was wonderful and we must come back when the blackthorn and hawthorn are in bloom!
My two dogs and I spent a short getaway at the Schwanennest. Absolutely fantastic location. So much love and attention went into every detail! Here you can truly unwind, enjoy nature, and the fenced garden is a dream for dog owners!
Everything as described. Andrea is a super nice host. It was very neat and clean. Would gladly stay again!
