We spent four days in Schneverdingen Lünzen, hiking in the heath in the first part of the day and using the apartment's exceptional amenities in the afternoons. The apartment is beautifully and tastefully decorated, exceptionally well equipped and the beds are incredibly comfortable. It is surrounded by a beautiful garden. It is, however, located directly on the rural road leading to/from Schneverdingen, which is well-traveled during the day. To get to the hiking trails in the Lueneburger Heide Nature Reserve one needs a car or bicycles. The vacation rental is on the ground floor of the house, with the host's mother, Mrs. Rosche living in the apartment above. Mrs. Rosche was our contact person upon arrival, whereas her son handled all the initial communication via the VRBO app. This was not clear from the listing or initial messages exchanged. The hosts expect guests to adhere to a few property rules which are mostly very reasonable. However, we did find it somewhat disconcerting that we were told that if we did not lower the blinds of the living room windows on a sunny day the host would enter the apartment in our absence during our stay to protect certain decorative (and admittedly beautiful) plants situated on the window sill of the vacation rental.
