Ferienhof Hardthöhe

Ferienhof Hardthöhe is a working farm and holiday estate located in the heart of the UNESCO World Heritage Upper Middle Rhine Valley, near Oberwesel in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany. The property presents itself as a rural retreat for guests who want to escape everyday life and immerse themselves in unspoiled nature. Its official website describes it as a "bewirtschafteter Bauernhof" — a working farm with many animals and idyllic quiet — set within the famous Rhine gorge landscape. The estate combines agriculture, equestrian activities, and hospitality. Accommodation ranges from cosy wooden houses and luxurious chalets with views toward the Oberwesel Schönburg castle to holiday apartments. A central part of the offering is the riding and pony farm, where children and adults can take pony courses, Hippolini courses, and riding lessons for beginners and advanced riders. The farm also runs themed weeks and weekends, such as Family Wellness Weekends, Happy Kids Weeks, and special hunting-chalet weekends. On-site amenities include a farm pool (hofPOOL), a spa area (hardtSPA), a farm shop (hofLADEN), and event facilities for farm weddings (farmWEDDING). The farm shop sells products for self-caterers and homemade goods, including eggs from the farm's own chickens, hardtAPFELSAFT apple juice from its meadow orchards, homemade jam, grape juice, and game products from the estate's own hunting grounds. Guests are welcomed with a vital breakfast (vitalFRÜHSTÜCK). The brand positions itself around the themes "freiRAUM, landLUFT, wohlFÜHLEN, anKOMMEN" — free space, country air, well-being, and arrival. It targets families, riders, wellness seekers, and wedding parties. The business is privately operated and does not appear to be part of a larger corporate group. Its online presence is centred on its own website, which serves as the primary booking and information channel.
