Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Medieval castle ruins and half-timbered houses sit outside the door, with forested trails winding through the Teinach valley below.

Spread across two connected buildings, rooms range from traditional country styles to modern suites with whirlpool tubs framing Black Forest panoramas.
The pools
Bring a swimsuit.
A year-round heated outdoor pool overlooks the pine-covered hills, alongside a flagstone-lined indoor swimming pool.
The saunas
The timber Hochsitzsauna is elevated on nine-meter stilts over the valley, joined by panoramic and herbal saunas.
The spa and gym
Quiet relaxation lounges with hanging chairs and waterbeds complement a timber-accented fitness studio offering daily vitality classes.

How it began
Run by the Berlin family since 1969, the retreat expanded from a village inn into an ambitious thermal and culinary destination.
