In the tranquil Loogh, nestled among the Eifel volcanoes and near the Eifelsteig, is the Herding holiday apartment, part of a holiday home. The apartment was recently partially renovated and furnished with much love.
Through a separate apartment entrance, you enter a hallway that leads to a modern country-style kitchen. The kitchen is fully equipped (dishwasher, microwave, stove, refrigerator, coffee maker, dishes, etc.). Next, you come into the cozy living room, where a comfortable sofa and two armchairs invite you to linger by the fireplace. In the adjoining conservatory is the dining room with a large table that can easily accommodate 6 people.
The modern bathroom is accessible from the hallway. It features a large, level-access shower with seating. Opposite the bathroom, there are two small bedrooms, which were renovated and upgraded in 2025. They offer space for a 2x2m bed (Bedroom 1) and a 2x1.4m bed (Bedroom 2). Additionally, there are stowage facilites in Bedroom 2. The bedrooms are only separated by a door, and Bedroom 1 serves as a passage to Bedroom 2. Therefore, we recommend our holiday apartment more for families or groups who know each other very well.
In the large outdoor area, there is a terrace with seating, a large wild romantic garden, and two natural ponds. One of these ponds can also be used as a swimming pond. Both ponds are freely accessible and not fenced - this should be taken into consideration when booking with small children.
The holiday apartment is located in a small village, and the garden is often visited by cats from the neighboring farms (please be mindful of allergy risks).
We invite you to find peace in this idyllic setting.
