Floods of light fall on plenty of natural wood finishes in the rooms, which benefit from boldly patterned textiles and mid-century modern furnishings…
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Perched in the hillside village of Horben, hiking paths through the Black Forest biosphere reserve start right at the doorstep.
The rooms
Beds crafted with natural materials face full-height glass that opens onto private terraces framing the Rhine valley and wooded slopes.
The pool and spa
Bring a swimsuit.
A heated 25-meter outdoor pool rests on a landscaped sun plateau, alongside medical fitness studios and quiet relaxation lounges.
The saunas
Tiered timber saunas look straight out into the woods, alongside dark slate floors and mosaic walk-in shower zones.
