About this property

Chic design cottage with sauna, open fires and plenty of peace and quiet near the forest, terrace

This modern holiday home is located on a residential plot 200m from the edge of the forest. You have a beautiful view of the surroundings from the plateau, but in only 5 minutes you are in the idyllic Ruppert valley with its grazing cows, rare plants and the rushing stream. Here you will find relaxation in every season. In summer, a terrace with garden furniture and a grill invites you to linger, from which you can watch the bats at dusk. In winter you can watch the dancing snowflakes in the rocking chair, dream about the crackling fire and relax in the sauna after a nice winter walk. The rock pool is equipped with wall and floor heating.

You can expect "pure nature" right on the doorstep. You can toboggan behind the house, and there are also playgrounds and a soccer field with table tennis. Worthwhile excursion destinations in the immediate vicinity are, for example, the Rennsteig summit hiking trail. Places such as the theater city of Meiningen, Erfurt, Weimar, Ilmenau or Coburg can also be reached quickly thanks to the convenient connection. Hikes through the UNESCO-recognized Vessertal biosphere reserve are very worthwhile. Crystal clear streams ripple through partially untouched nature and invite you to relax and unwind. In winter you can expect more than 70 km of groomed trails and several ski lifts with different runs around the Rennsteig area.

Location and location of the accommodation

The house is on the outskirts of Zella-Mehlis 200m from the hiking trails. From here you have a beautiful view of the park-like property with the Ruppertsbach and the surrounding mountains.
To relax after a strenuous hike, you have your own seat with garden furniture and barbecue, as well as a sauna. Zella-Mehlis is a state-approved resort. The house is only 5 minutes away from the idyllic Ruppert valley, in one of the most beautiful basins, nestled in the highest mountains of the Thuringian Forest south of the Rennsteig.
The two towns of Zella St. Blasii and Mehlis merged in 1919, due to the historical past there is a market and a church in both districts, with the town hall in the middle. The new town center is currently being built here. The local mountain of Zella-Mehlis is called Ruppberg, is 866 m high and is a popular excursion destination with a managed mountain hut that welcomes guests on weekends from May 1st to October 31st.

Kleines Schmuckstück im Thüringer Wald
Das kleine Ferienhaus liegt auf dem Grundstück der netten Gastgeberin aber trotzdem in abgeschiedener Alleinlage. Es gibt sogar eine Sauna. Im Garten kann man prima Sonnenbaden und Frühstücken. Oder abends am Feuer sitzen. Direkt am Gartenzaun beginnen wunderschöne Wanderwege. Im Ort gibt es alles, was man braucht. Ein rundum schöner Urlaub. Danke Mandy 😀

Entspannung in der Natur
Wir brauchen dringend einen Urlaub weg von der Zivilisation. An einem unserer wandertage haben wir nur eine Person gesehen, sonst niemanden getroffen. So wollten wir das. Sauna und Ausblick ins Grüne hat uns in nur fünf Tagen sehr gut heruntergefahren. Vielen Dank, auch für die Überraschungsbrötchen.

Sehr feines kleines Häuschen
Das Haus ist super schön und die Gastgeber sind sehr herzlich, freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Haus hat für zwei Personen eine sehr angenehme Größe, die Einrichtung ist fast luxuriös. Sehr kuschelig und gemütlich um mal auszuspannen. Das Haus steht auf dem sehr gepflegten Grundstück des Gastgeberhauses mit großem Abstand zum Haupthaus in sehr privater Atmosphäre. Die Umgebung ist sehr schön, der Thüringer Wald liegt wörtlich vor der Haustür. Weimar, Eisenach, Oberhof...alles in gut erreichbarer Nähe. Gerne wieder !!

Sehr stilvolle Unterkunft in sehr schöner Lage
Das Objekt ist sehr stilvoll und hochwertig ausgestattet. Ideal für 2-3 Personen. Alles notwendige und mehr (z.B. Sauna, Grillmöglichkeit) ist vorhanden. Das Objekt ist ruhig gelegen, dennoch ist man schnell im Zentrum von Zella-Mehlis und die Anbindung z.B. nach Suhl oder Oberhof ist sehr gut. Check-in und Check-out funktionierte tadellos. Die Gastgeberin ist sehr freundlich, hilfsbereit, gibt Tipps und steht bei Fragen zur Verfügung.

Herausragende Unterkunft
Das kleine Ferienhaus ist perfekt ausgestattet und mit seiner Lage am Ortsrand ein guter Ausgangspunkt für Wanderungen. Und wenn das Wetter nicht so ist, kann man es sich dank der Sauna richtig gemütlich machen. Die freie Treppe war am Anfang für das dreijährige Enkelkind eine ziemliche Herausforderung (oder besser für die Nerven der Großeltern), aber im Lauf der Zeit gewöhnte es sich daran und meisterte alles ohne Problem. Viele Dank an unsere nette Gastgeberin!
