Our newly renovated guest apartment in Oberwesel offers an unforgettable stay right in the heart of UNESCO'S World Heritage Upper Middle Rhine Valley. Enjoy the many hiking and bicycle paths it has to offer, through forests, meadows, wine yards and historical sites. Oberwesel was a free imperial city that fell under Christian lordship, until its French secularization. It was important in medieval times due to its wine growing, fishing, handcrafts and trade. You must see this historical marvel!

The apartment is situated right in the centre of Oberwesel's old town. The river Rhine, town hall, post office, bakery, off-license, beauty shop, main train station and river boat landing are only 5 minutes walk from the house. There are also two large grocery stores at easy reach (15 min. by foot/5 min. by car). Its location serves as a perfect starting point for hikers and cyclist, as it is situated just under one of the valley walls. The town itself offers a few culinary highlights such as Goldener Pfropfenzieher, Günderodehaus, Ferienhof Hardthöhe (watch out for their seasonal events) and, last but not least, fine dining delights at the Schönburg Castle Hotel. Schönburg Castle does not only offer delicious food, but also an incredible view of the Rhine river wining down the valley and a fun, rocky hike up. The town also hosts a wide variety of restaurants and cafés, restaurant Alanya (Turkish restaurant for sitting in or taking away), Café Bonsch (traditional German tea-room-like for afternoon 'Kaffee und Kuchen' or breakfasts) and one of the gems of Oberwesel, Zum Lamm (casual restaurant, serving super traditional German food and their self produced wine, amongst other drinks, of course). Moving away from Oberwesel, there are also loads of wine makers and farms close-by.
