“Green Eilun” – that’s what we call our island. It means “the green island” and with its endless green meadows, grazing foals and calves on wide marshes there is no other name for Föhr! Located behind Sylt and Amrum, the climate of Föhr is much milder than on the other North Sea islands. When there is storm and rain on Sylt or Amrum, it’s not uncommon to feel and see nothing of “their” weather on Föhr. Föhr has got its own climate, always milder and always a bit more sun than elsewhere.

But when sometimes a messy weather is expected, the “old Captain’s house” can show its luxury while providing peace, namely comfort, warmth and a place with an atmosphere that can not be found everywhere.

The house has about 150 m². On the ground floor is the large open dining area with adjoining, absolutely modern kitchen – an ideal place for Hobby cooks! In the living room there’s a stone fireplace with about 200 old “Delft tiles”, an absolute perfect spot to spend quiet hours. The atrium can be used for sheltered nights in the North Sea air. The bedroom is equipped with a private, wheelchair accessible bathroom. On the upper floor are quiet bedrooms which offer a cosy ambience. There is also a tub decorated with tea lights.
