Our "Altes Forstamt Sinntal" is picturesquely situated on a hill above the Sinn valley and the village of Altengronau.
In the middle of the almost 2 hectare property and the gardens, which are known throughout Hesse, you can enjoy the view far into the Franconian hilltop Rhön and the Spessart.
Numerous secluded spots offer many opportunities to "unwind". At night, when the sky is clear, you can see a fantastically clear firmament, just like in the Rhön Star Park.
Our cottage "Pferdestall" (horse stable), approx. 60sqm, offers a cozy experience of nature even in less beautiful weather thanks to its many windows and cozy underfloor heating. The bedroom and the separate sleeping loft offer comfortable space for 4 people.
