Summary

A special kind of time-out awaits you. Situated between the forest and the Perfstausee lake, the Schwanennest is in a completely secluded location. Only horses and sheep are your neighbors. Here you can get off-line and off-grid and concentrate on the important things in life again. A cozy, hygge-furnished little hut is your home. You can use all areas of the fenced-in garden. You have a wonderful panoramic view from your terrace. If you don't just want to relax, you can choose the program that suits you from our retreat modules. You have the hut all to yourself and your coaches are also there just for you during the retreat modules. You will be personally supervised by the OFFSITE Resilience team, we are certified trainers and psychological counselors. The program is designed for prevention, counselling and life support.

!!! Important !!! You decide the length of your stay, minimum stay is two nights. If you don't want to be alone, bring a loved one or your pet with you free of charge. You can also book the Swan's Nest without a program.

From there, you can be at the lake or in the forest in just a few minutes; the Lahnwanderweg hiking trail leads past the Schwanennest. You can hire kayaks or SUP boards at the lake. The Seeblick restaurant with its large outdoor terrace offers food and drinks right by the lake. There are two birdwatching stands in the nature reserve by the lake.

The Schwanennest can also be booked in winter, we are happy to offer you a winter discount.

Please also take a look at our BOOKING CALENDAR on our OFFSITE Resilienz homepage under the heading "Happy Homes". So you can see directly if there is still something available!

If you would like to give the retreat as a gift, you will receive a lovingly designed voucher from us.

Take a look at our other offers "Weekend Forest Retreats" and "Time out in the Fairytale Cabin" on Retreat Vacations! For the "Weekend Forest Retreats" there is still an early bird discount of 10% until 31.12.2025.

We look forward to seeing you! Patrick and Andrea
