Eifel - holiday with family + friends: big house, terrace, wonderful location

Welcome to the holiday home Faltmann! (We also have a homepage: please google :-)

The individually furnished holiday home Faltmann with the extraordinary charm: grown home decor combined with new, modern accessories.

If you are looking for something special, you are right: Lots of space in and around the house, unspoiled nature and wild animals, including for observing. 400 meters walk to the lower Rursee, hiking and walking trails en mass, a paradise for cyclists and families, children and dogs welcome.

The house is suitable for one or two families with children as well as for small groups: hikers, cyclists and relaxation seekers, friends and extended families will enjoy the stay.

You will find shops (bakery, Edeka) close and can view the entire arrival and departure make by public transport. We arrange a pick up if you have too much luggage to the house to cover the 2 km from Heimbach station on foot. Incidentally, the train journey from Düren to Heimbach with Rurtalbahn is an experience, one of the most beautiful railway lines in Germany.

The house has 4 bedrooms with 2 (to 3) Bedding, a bathroom with tub and a bathroom with walk-in shower (two bathrooms are fully tiled and fitted new). In the living room 2 additional overnight guests can be accommodated, if you have visitors in your holiday season.

The living room is divided into two parts: one half with sofas and chairs to sit together, chatting or watching TV. The other half with a large, extendable table for playing or for family meals and celebrations. In front is a large conservatory, can also be smoked in the case of bad weather. The large terrace next to it has an awning, so that they can be used as additional space in the open in the summer. The views of meadows and the "wild" valley is a nice holiday feeling. The plot is in south direction over the forest, by the lake to get to.

In the reception room invite a cozy armchairs to sit together. The bright yellow, soft bed is the most popular picture book and reading niche in small children.

In the kitchen you will find everything you need people for 8 (up to 10): dishes, glasses, pots and cooking utensils, coffee, Senseo espresso machine, Michschäumer, kettle, toaster, blender and of course stove and oven, dishwasher and microwave , All guests can comfortably sit at the big sturdy wooden table with colorful chairs.

In the wide hallway you can swap on the bench your street shoes to comfy slippers (if you have your forgotten Replacement slippers are available there). There is also room for jackets, coats and umbrellas and dog leashes, rubber boots and bags.

All bedrooms have closets and dressers for your personal belongings and enough hangers for this and that. The bedrooms are individually designed, so that there is a space for everyone - and for children and young at heart adults also a secret hiding place. Our friends here slept so well that by 9 o'clock could be heard in the morning not a peep from them.

We have the bedrooms given name so that you find your way better. If you stairs to. 1 Stock walk up, you open the first door on the right to the room "Luise". Luise is "the white room": bright and friendly, with a 1.80 m wide bed with 2 mattresses. On the shelves you will find entertaining and educational literature. The window looks towards the west, towards the hill to see the Landal. There is a wardrobe and two chests of drawers for your clothes. In cubbyhole behind the wall you can stash suitcases or playing hide. You will also find a baby bed and a sleeping pad for your morning yoga exercises.

Right next to Luise's room "Oscar", the largest of the bedrooms. Oskar also has a 1.80 m wide bed with two mattresses. The large window shows the south in the garden, and if you close the blinds at night not quite, you can in the morning with some luck early a fox or a deer in the meadow. Your laundry is housed in the cabinet with three doors and 2 drawers. On the shelves are books, especially entertaining and classic literature. As the only rooms Oskar also has a desk and next to the bed a TV.

On the left side of the upper hallway, next to the bathroom, bedroom "Timo". Timo has two single beds, making it ideal for two people who prefer to have separate beds, and for children. Under a bed is also a pull-out mattress: As safety net for children, the night falling out of bed. Or as an extra bed if required for one more sleeping accommodation is.

Actually Timo is a children's bedroom with a Elchlampe and children's pictures on the wall, a low level and a sideboard for the toys. On the shelves you can find games and children's books. And of course there is also a cupboard. The window shows the south of the big lawn and the "wild" valley. At dusk and early morning you can also observe foxes and deer - and any time the red male neighbors.

Last Room "Frieda", perhaps the most comfortable bedroom, definitely the smallest. There is a 1.40 m wide bed for 2 children or a couple (our Danish friends said "Frieda is for lovers") and a more broad sleeping under the slope, if the bed becomes too narrow or want a third person to sleep here , The small window goes east on the horse pasture. From this window you can watch the sunrise best.

Incidentally, let reading material and games left at home: in each room you will find books for all ages and games, use up to your heart.

If you want to take a book, just let them know if it is not part of a series of collected works, we are big fans of "books for a journey".

In the cellar you can leave your luggage if you want, cool drinks and store food. Under the stairs is a cool storage room. The spacious laundry room is equipped with washer, dryer and linen. In the basement there is also an additional shower for garden workers and dogs :-)

The environment is fantastic: 400 meters walk through the woods to Untersee, you can easily circumnavigate: Either go to the campsite in rabbits field, over the bridge to lovely old Industrial Museum (formerly the only Art Nouveau power plant in Germany) and circumnavigate the submarine on quiet paths which are suitable for children and dogs.

Or walk on the left continue through the jungle path to Heimbach, which features the castle, many small shops, cafes and restaurants and of course the Eifeltor in the tourist center.

Directly from the house you can look at the donkey meadow (with real donkeys!) passing on a moderately steep walk to Schwammenauel climb the dam. Here you have a great view of the Rursee. Take a trip with the white fleet across the lake to Woffelsbach and Rurberg that's worth it!

Other attractions are the monastery Maria Forest, the beautiful city in the valley Monschau, Vogelsang and of course, the imperial city of Aachen. In House Faltmann see maps, tips and calendar with other ideas for a great holiday.

We received our first holiday guests in the summer of 2016!

The house was lovely with beautiful surroundings and had everything we could possibly need
Sabine was really nice and very flexible with us. She gave us advice on walking routes in the eifel park and what was worth seeing in the area. The house was very confortable and with a lovely terrace and seemed to have been renotaved not long a go. We were all surprised when we arrived because we had everything we could possibly need for a great stay. The only sad thing was not staying there longer.

Beautiful house with a big garden. Perfect for families with children.
We stayed there for a few days at the begining of November. The house is big enough to accomodate 6 adults + 5 children + 1 baby. The kitchen is fully equipt, the rooms are quite big and nicely decorated; there is a bbq on the terrase and the garden is just beautiful. We even saw deers in the back of the garden. The owner is very friendly. I definitely recommend!

Great house for larger groups and families - with amazing garden!
We spend a month in this wonderful holiday house in the Eiffel. Very suitable for large families and groups. Everything was available to make the house comfortable and pleasant to stay in, even for a longer time. Large bedrooms, including a room more suitable for children. Because there were 2 bathrooms, nobody had to wait long in the morning. There was a lack of ventilation in the bathrooms, which caused it to get a bit wet after 8 people. There was even a fitness room available in the basement for the more sportive types. The garden was also incredibly large and great for (young) children to play in as you can easily keep an eye on them. In the morning and in the afternoon we even saw some deer right on the edge of the garden! Great place to bbq in the summer, although there wasn't any garden light making it a bit too dark later in the evening. On the rainy days the wintergarten was a good placeholder, although it could get incredible hot in there on warmer days. On walking distant, in Hasenfeld itself, there was a nice restaurant with incredibly fresh trout and a very beautiful garden in the back. In the kitchen there could have been a bit more baking trays (for the oven) to accomodate cooking for larger groups. All in all we had a great summer month in this house!

Ruim huis in een mooie omgeving
We -twee gezinnen met oudere kinderen- hebben een heerlijke week gehad. Het huis is ruim en compleet ingericht. De eigenaars hebben aan alles gedacht en zijn zeer behulpzaam en vriendelijk. Vier ruime slaapkamers met badkamer boven en beneden een grote woonkamer met eettafel. Wij aten in de keuken of de serre, zodat de eettafel in de woonkamer de spelletjestafel was. Vanuit het huisje kan je leuke wandel- en fietstochten maken; het is wel erg heuvelachtig maar af en toe een stukje bergop lopen is prima. Aanrader!

Großzügiges, sehr sauberes Haus
Der Kontakt mit Frau Faltmann war sehr unkompliziert. Sie hat sich sehr viel Mühe gegeben unseren Aufenthalt so angenehm wie möglich zu gestalten und hat uns bereits im Vorfeld bei der Planung unseres Aufenthalts unterstützt. Das Haus ist super geeignet für große Gruppen und sehr kinderfreundlich.

Ein tolles Haus in idyllischer Lage
Das Haus ist super eingerichtet, viele tolle Extras, wie Taschentücher,Kindertoilettensitz und extra für uns montiertes Treppengitter. Wir erlebten die Vermieterin sehr engagiert und an unserem Wohl interessiert. Und wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt, sowohl im Haus, als auch in der kinderfreundlichen Nachbarschaft.

Familienfreundliches, gemütliches Wohlfühlhaus mit großem, ruhig gelegenem Grundstück
Ein sehr sauberes, gepflegtes Haus, dem man die liebevolle Hand der Inhaber anmerkt. Von uns viel genutzt, der große Wintergarten. Das Haus ist komplett eingerichtet und man findet dort wirklich alles vor, was man braucht. Zweckmäßig auch der große ordentliche Wäschekeller mit Waschmaschine und Trockner. Der große Garten ist bestens geeignet zum Entspannen oder aber auch für "sportliches Engagement" wie Federball spielen o.ä. Buchung und Kommunikation waren sehr freundlich und unkompliziert. Die Umgebung ist sehr schön und lädt zum Wandern ein. Sehr empfehlenswert der Hochseilgarten in Hürtgenwald, die Sommerrodelbahn in Monschau, sowie der Ort Monschau selbst. Auch die Seenrundfahrt auf dem Rursee, mit Besuch der öffentlichen und sehr schönen Badestelle in Rurberg sind zu empfehlen.
