Take a seat and relax in this peaceful, stylish accommodation, ‘Harz-Urlaub-Altenau’ – your dog is very welcome. We took over the apartment in January 2026. We have largely left the lovely attic flat as it was, in a modern Scandinavian style. We’ve changed a few details, but retained the overall character. The renovation work in the bedroom, kitchen, bathroom, hallway and the balcony area is now complete – you’ll feel right at home! The flat is designed for 2 people. An additional sleeping space for a child on a fold-out mattress can be booked for a fee. The visitor’s tax of 3 Eur per adult per night (1.65 Eur per child per night) must be paid in advance. The cleaning fee is included in the booking rate. Dogs are very welcome, but unfortunately cats and other animals are not. We charge a one-off additional cleaning fee of 20 Eur per stay for your dog, plus a further 10 Eur for a second one. No more than 2 dogs are permitted. The flat is on two levels, connected by a staircase. The lower level comprises the living/dining area and balcony, whilst the upper level features the kitchen, bathroom and bedroom. The living area features a sofa, a 50-inch TV, a CD stereo, a separate dining table with chairs and plenty of space. In front of the balcony, there is an extra seating area from which you can comfortably enjoy a glass of wine whilst looking out towards Mühlenberg and Wolfswarte, even in bad weather. The modernised small bathroom, featuring a shower, toilet and window, has everything you need. The new kitchen is fully equipped with a ceramic hob, oven, coffee machine and pod machine, dishwasher, fridge-freezer, microwave and much more. The bedroom features a 160x200cm double bed, 2 bedside tables with radio alarm clocks and lamps, as well as a large wardrobe, safe and vacuum cleaner. The flat comes with 1 free parking space + 1 garage for cars up to 1.95m in height, which can be used for a fee of 5 Eur per night by prior arrangement.

I am a child of the 1970s, grew up in the Harz Mountains and completed my mechanical engineering studies at Clausthal University of Technology. I love nature and the Harz Mountains. Today, I live within easy reach of the Harz Mountains in Braunschweig and rent out our holiday apartment together with my wife Susann.

Our flat is located in a quiet side street on Glockenberg (not in the holiday park). It is about a 5-minute walk to the village, where there is a REWE supermarket, restaurants, hairdresser, baker and much more. It is only a 10-minute drive to Harz National Park. Within 10 minutes' walking distance, you can reach the local hiking trails of the Harz National Park, which start behind the Kristalltherme spa, for example. The Kristalltherme spa itself offers great relaxation in various saunas, the special brine pool and spa area, as well as excellent food and drinks in the adjoining restaurant. The Okerteich forest swimming pool is also ideal for outdoor swimming. The 16th-century St. Nikolai Church in the old town centre is well worth seeing, both inside and out. The Altenau Herb Experience Park, Germany's largest herb park, produces its own delicious spice blends and invites visitors to visit the spice gallery with its shop and café. The outdoor area of the park is open to all visitors from April to October. And if you want to visit other places in the Harz Mountains, then take a look at Clausthal-Zellerfeld, Braunlage, St. Andreasberg, Torfhaus, Goslar, Lautental and many others.
