At last, everyone at one table.
Birthday, siblings’ get-together, old friends: a whole house, a long table and enough time for each other.
A place where you do not have to organise anything.
A milestone birthday, the siblings’ get-together, the old flat share that meets every few years: usually everyone lives somewhere else, and the reunion needs a place where you can simply be together. With us you get a whole house to yourselves, with a big table in the middle.
Heidelberg is 20 minutes away by car. From Burgi in Dilsberg it is a ten-minute walk up to the fortress, with the most beautiful view.
What to expect
A table for everyone
At Feni there is a big, extendable round table, at Burgi a big dining table that can be extended. The kitchen has a dishwasher, and oils and spices are ready.
Beds for couples and singles
Feni has two rooms with a double bed and two rooms with two single beds each. Burgi has three double beds and four single beds, which can be pulled out into double beds in the attic.
Sleeping on the ground floor
At Feni the ground floor is step-free: a bedroom and a large bathroom next to each other. At Burgi the ground floor has a bedroom and a small toilet. In both houses you reach the other rooms by stairs.
Fortress and Neckar Valley
Burgi lies in Dilsberg below the fortress. Feni lies in Mückenloch, and Dilsberg is three minutes away by car. The forest starts right at the door.
Eating out well
In Neckargemünd there are Italian restaurants, the Alte Scheune and the Gasthaus Zum Schiff. For breakfast the Ludwighof in Hoffenheim is worth it, please reserve. Plus the tips for the area.
Decorations and flowers
You are welcome to bring garlands and decorations, they just should not be stuck to the walls. On request there is a bouquet waiting beforehand, from me or from Ella Fleur, plus tablecloths and table decorations in Zita style.
Sauna and stove
Sauna in the evening: the barrel sauna in the garden at Feni, the Finnish sauna with a small rest room at Burgi. Afterwards you sit by the stove, the pellet stove at Feni, the oil stove at Burgi.
