Owner profile
On holiday in Austria with my husband
About the owner
I am German and my husband is English. I lived in England for over 30 years where we brought up our family. Our children and grandchildren live in England.
We had always planned to move to the magnificent Eifel Region of Germany between the Rhine and Moselle where, within a day, we could also drive to such places Vienna, Venice, Rome, Berlin, Amsterdam, Prague, Paris and others.
When we first saw our property in Gerolstein in October 2008 we knew that we could restore it, not only to create our home, but also 2 spacious luxury apartments of which we are now particularly proud.
As an ex nurse and teacher I bring a high level of professionalism, cleanliness and understanding of guests. As a fluent German and English speaker I am able to help guests when requested.
Year purchased: 2009
Why the owner chose an apartment in this location
We love the area. Without exaggeration the Eifel is a beautiful part of the world. It has a remoteness like Wales, the lake District or even Scotland but with a multitude of castles, lakes and natural activity centres and the next village or town never more than 5 miles away.
The beauty of the volcanic lakes, the closeness of the Rhine & Mosel Rivers, and its central location with close rail, road links makes Gerolstein special.
A day out by train, (station 400m) in beautiful mountainous scenery, to the cities of Cologne or Trier for a group return ticket for 4 adults costs c£20 (also valid for city buses). Get on and off the train as you wish. Close to Nürburgring and spa.
So much to do, so many places to see. Still to be discovered by the Brits.
Written by my English husband Alan.
