Apartment in a charming historic villa in the old town

This charmingly furnished apartment is located on the 2nd floor of a historic villa dating back to 1895, near the city center and close to all public transportation options, which are all within easy walking distance.
From the balcony, you can enjoy a unique view of the villa’s mature trees and the adjacent Krückaupark. Despite its proximity to the city center, you’ll feel close to nature here, far removed from the hustle and bustle of the city.
You can reach Hamburg by train in 20–30 minutes, and by car it takes only about 30 minutes.
Day trips to the North Sea and the Baltic Sea are also easily arranged from here.

Beautiful house, we had a great time

The house was very clean, nice and well decorated. Everything we needed was there and more such as games and a balcony. Hamburg is a very nice city and we had a lot of fun there. The owner was very kind to let us use his privat charger for our electric car. Overall we had a great time.

Lovely place

Very nice appartment in a beatifull house. A well equipped place to stay. Spacy rooms and comfortable beds. Our hosts made us feel very welcome For tall people, mind your heads to avoid an unfortunate encounter with the bathroom door. But once you know, you'll find a nice bathroom at the other side.

Fabulous historic villa

It is a really fabulous historic building that has been restored to it's former glory. The apartment is on the upper floor and covers the whole floor. So it is latge and comfortable with a small backyard looking balcony. We really enjoyed our stay. A backery is just around the corner and downtown Elmshorn just a few minute walk away. The Hosts are very friendly and welcoming and accommodating. Could not have asked for better hosts. We loved it!

Wir waren für drei Nächte in dieser wunderschönen Ferienwohnung in Elmshorn untergebracht, während wir Hamburg besucht haben, und haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen.Die Wohnung ist sehr geräumig, sauber und hervorragend ausgestattet. Besonders praktisch war die schnelle Erreichbarkeit des Bahnhofs, sodass wir problemlos und bequem nach Hamburg fahren konnten.Das Haus selbst ist traumhaft schön und hat eine sehr angenehme Atmosphäre. Auch die Gastgeber waren ausgesprochen nett, herzlich und jederzeit hilfsbereit, sodass wir uns von Anfang an willkommen gefühlt haben.Wir können diese Unterkunft uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen und würden jederzeit wiederkommen. Vielen Dank für den schönen Aufenthalt!

Eine sehr gemütliche Wohnung in einem liebevoll renovierten Haus mit Charme. In jedem Raum steckt sichtbar viel Herzblut drin. Der Ausblick vom Essplatz und Balkon ist ein Traum. Sämtliche Supermärkte sind in der Nähe. Der Bahnhof ist gut zu Fuß zu erreichen und man kommt ohne Probleme nach Hamburg. Aber auch ein Tagesausflug zum Meer ist gut möglich.Wir hatten tolle Tage, haben uns aber jeden Abend wieder auf das Ankommen in der schönen Wohnung gefreut. Wohnung und Vermieter sind 1a
