Sit back and enjoy peaceful scenery while your children play in the playground, cavort in the woods or count tadpoles in the pond.
There are lots of wonderful activities for you to enjoy in the area, such as visiting a wildlife park, swimming, wall climbing, canoeing and treasure hunting.
The hilly landscape of Nahe-land is perfectly suitable for challenging bicycle rides on paved and unpaved roads. As a rambler you can indulge in Premium Wanderwegen, while geocaching or you can even plan your own route departing from your holiday retreat.
We would love to welcome your loyal four-legged friends. We aim to offer you and your dog an enjoyable and stress-free holiday. That’s why every ground floor retreat has a fenced garden. You can also make delightful day excursions using one of the walking trails in the vicinity.
Get to know the surrounding area of Eckerweiler, visit Burg Lichtenberg or join the Achatweg in Freisen or the Bärenbachpfad in Baumholder on the back of your own horse. These are only a few of the many possibilities to enjoy the vast landscape on horseback.
After a varied ride outdoors your fine steed can graze peacefully on one of our meadows, which are all provided with paddocks and shelter stables.

At Wald und Wiese, we are committed to sustainability to preserve our beautiful natural surroundings. We minimize our ecological footprint by using solar panels and solar boilers for electricity and hot water. When additional energy is needed, it is provided by a 100% green energy supplier, and we heat the cottages with DIN Plus-certified wood pellets.
Our accommodations are equipped with water-saving taps and showers, and we use eco-friendly cleaning products. Our garden is also planted as much as possible with native species to support local biodiversity.
As a guest, you can contribute during your stay in the following ways:
• Opt for sustainable transport: Plan your excursions using public transport.
• Watch the nature conservation video: Discover how you can protect nature during a visit to Hunsrück-Hochwald National Park.
• Sort waste: Use the available waste bins for proper recycling.
In August 2013 we stayed as guests at Ruud and Sandra’s magnificent Schloss Möhren where we fell in love with its delightful countryside and peaceful surroundings. That’s when we decided to move to Germany. For practical reasons we wanted to stay slightly closer to Belgium, but one thing was certain – we would definitely move to Germany.
Back home, we decided to look for a property that would match our expectations. Purely by accident, we came across a 1925 farm in Eckersweiler, a charming village in Rhineland Palatinate bordering on Saarland, with fewer than 200 inhabitants. It didn’t take us long before we signed the contract and bought the farm in December 2013. In September 2014 we moved to our new place in Germany, together with our loyal quadrupeds:
our two dogs Yousi and Danté, our horses L’Amour and Louna and three Shetland ponies Lizzy, Lucas and Polleke.
