Property info

Aquaelberg Place started off as our first small home and grew with our family. Now that the family has grown up and moved on to start their own lives, we decided to share our home and the reason why we moved here over 30 years ago. We offer panoramic mountain views, the sounds of nature and the fresh air that comes with it. Our property has beautifully furnished rooms all en-suite with private balconies or patios. each room has a private entrance. Well established gardens create secluded seating areas and balconies are perched between the trees.
