New green pearl at Lake Constance: Naturresort Gerbehof

Meadows, forests, orchards and right amidst them the new green pearl on Lake Constance. The Naturresort Gerbehof captivates with a unique location and concept that puts closeness to nature in the center.

As an organic country hotel with attached guesthouse and vacation apartments, it is a relaxing retreat surrounded by nature for couples and families as well as business travelers. The own 30-hectare certified organic farm and the fruit orchard with apples and pears supply the guests with regional delicacies. Anything not grown by the hotel itself is purchased from organic farms in the immediate vicinity.

Only certified natural and organic cosmetics are used at the Nature Spa with spacious outdoor facilities. Moreover, bioenergetic meditations according to the method of Viktor Philippi that activate the immune system, metabolism and nervous system are offered.

"Organic" as an attitude to life and a holistic concept - This is also apparent throughout the interior, which is mostly made of timber sourced from the hotel's own forest and carpentered on site. Other materials like marble, silver quartzite and stones were selected for their longevity or the regional importance. The hotel's own wood, mainly so-called beetle wood, also comes into use for energy generation in the woodchip plant. Power is either supplied by the local public utilities (hydroelectric power) or produced by the photovoltaic system on the roofs of the hotel and indoor riding arena. 

Beginners and advanced riders can take lessons in western riding at the horse ranch belonging to the Gerbehof. Furthermore, Gerbehof provides horse-supported coaching for individuals, clubs or teams, exploring one' s personality and strength with the help of horses. Vacation with the own horse is also possible.
