Landlust-Zuhaus, Issue 02-2020

The often strong wind makes almost the only sound in the silence. Around the Gulfhof in the East Frisian Krummhörn ...

Filming for East Frisian thriller

Our Gulfhof was allowed to serve as a filming location for the East Frisian thriller "Ostfriesenfluch".

VACATIONS IN A HISTORICAL MONUMENT

The residential part of the Gulhof Klein Schulenburgerpolder was carefully renovated into vacation homes. Four apartments were created to offer peaceful vacations in East Friesland between Norddeich, Greetsiel and the Krummhörn.

In the rooms that were reconstructed according to analysis of historical colour patterns, one will get an authentic impression of what the Marschhof used to look like in the 1840s. Despite modern amenities, the visitor will be able to discover ancient details, that have been restored and will allow him to experience a feeling of the centuries passed brought back into nowadays convenience.

Due to the intricate design of the structure of the building two adjacent apartments can be combined through interconnecting doors to form a single apartment. A central hallway connects all four apartments ensuring an ideal vacation experience for several families of various generations.

The farm building is no longer useful for agricultural purposes. Neither contemporary agricultural machinery nor a modern livestock can be accommodated expediently in the approx. 800m² barn. The extension of the living end does not only serve the reconstruction of the historical building fabric. By renting out the vacation apartments, the preservation and further restoration of the entire farm building, which was built in 1842, is to be secured in the long term.

The vacation apartments in the listed building naturally do not meet modern requirements in all respects. Information about this is available on request and together with the vacation apartment rental contract.

It was not possible to make any of the apartments handicapped accessible. Please contact us if you have any questions about the possibilities in the apartments.
