- The Guesthouse:
Our charming one-bedroom guesthouse has been enjoyed by family and friends for over 16 years. If walls could talk, this quaint house would tell stories of new experiences, great memories, and lasting friendships. Now it's time to share this little treasure with new friends to come. Built-in 1847 our small building was used as a Schnapps-House for the local villagers. Almost 200 years later it was transformed into the cutest little guesthouse in Germany. The first floor is equipped with a living/dining area, a kitchenette and a simple bathroom with shower. The living area contains a sofa bed (Standard Europen double (140cmx200cm)and can sleep up to two people. The kitchenette also offers all the necessities for enjoying a quick snack in between activities, including a microwave, fridge, sink, toaster, coffee maker, kettle as well as dishes, glasses and cutlery. A table and chairs are provided to enjoy your morning cup of coffee or a true German 'Brotzeit'. There is also.a table and chairs outside for your use during warmer months. Your meals can be enjoyed at one of the 4 local restaurants (reachable within 50 steps - literally!). The second floor provides sleeping arrangements for two further guests including a large comfortable bed (210cm x 190cm((length))) and plenty of storage in a typical German 'Schrank'.
The doorway into the guesthouse is on the low side. Very tall people and some of us just average height need to remember to duck a bit.
- Our Little Village:
Prichsenstadt is located in the north of Bavaria in the region 'Unterfranken' (Lower Franconia). The city is equipped with many historical sites. The beautiful town gate settled in between two towers welcomes you when entering Prichsenstadt's main road. Driving through reminds everyone of a classic Disney fairytale. Also situated on the main road is an old-fashioned clock tower. The bells chime every fifteen minutes as if you were at a medieval fair. Two churches can be reached with a few steps and the clergy welcomes guests. The 4 local restaurants are all found on the same main road as the guesthouse. We definitely recommend walking over to enjoy a Schnitzel and one of the many local wines available - or satisfy your thirst with a cold beer. Many of these restaurants also offer exclusive wine tastings. The vineyards, too, are just a short walk away. The town consists of two bakeries, two banks with 24 hour ATMs, and two butchers The city takes pride in its historical background.
Prichsenstadt is also known for its great festivities. The 25th and 26th of April 2020 mark the annual Oldtimer Festival. This weekend the main road is lined up with antique classic cars and can be enjoyed by guests while enjoying a Bratwurst. Parking on-site is not available during these dates. But the Winefest is our true highlight! Between the 12th and 15th of June 2020, many visitors from all over Germany gather for this Festival. Parking for the guesthouse is relocated to the parallel street about 150m away. There is no on-site parking at the guesthouse during these events. For the wine fest, parking is not onsite from June 11th to the 17th.
Celebrate Lower Franconia's great taste in wine. A live band assures the party stays alive and we spend our day outside on the main street enjoying the music, the food and most of all the wine. The Winefest can get a bit loud, but we hope if you're visiting us during that weekend you'll be out with us enjoying the party.
