Holiday in the southern Burgenland

My detailed travelpost

» The Accomodation:   » Landhofmühle in Minihof-Liebau

We stayed at the wonderful and idyllic Landhofmühle of Familie Fartek. The old farm was renovated and the garden is very welcoming. Every room is furnished rustically and smells of wood.

The breakfast, which is prepared by Claudia and Franz each morning was wonderful! Tons of yummy dishes with products from the garden or the farm nearby. With every bite you could taste the freshness of these regional products. All the delicacies are served in little glasses and plates, warm to cold, sweet and sour, vegetarian, vegan, glutenfree – there’s something for everyone. The atmosphere in the garden is unmatched. Claudia and Franz will always look out for the guests.

I was really blown away by the beautiful garden! Tons of flowers and herbs grow here – you can see a lot of bees, butterflies and dragonflies. It was fantastic to enjoy the peace. I could just stay here for hours to find some inspiration for my future garden. And what you can’t miss – the sweet kitten. The cat just wandered around all day and enjoyed the weather as well.

» Sonnengartl:  What and who is this?

The Sonnengartl association exists since 14 years. It’s a merger of 10 wonderful and unique “Urlaub am Bauernhof”-hosts and businesses such as a riding school, a restaurant and an oil mill. These companies surround the Minihof-Liebau and you can get there by bike. You can find all the companies we visited below – and you can find more information HERE.

» Culinary and Sport:   Our Weekendprogramme

On our trip we took some time off for a bike tour. Enjoying nature wie an E-Bike! It was the first time for us. Riding a E-Bike was really handy! You can explore the ares without sweating too much!

Franz – the landlord accompanied us through the day and showed us everything – he was a wonderful guide and a really good photographer! The area is reall beautiful and very idyllic with all the vines, forests and the hills. This tour is wonderful for families with children as well. The yards cover different ranges and you can learn about traditional and family life.

Next to homemade herblemonade, grape – and applejuice, you can also have liquors, regional wine and delicious sausage specialties, different cheeses and rustic bread. You’d get fresh veggies and salads from the garden as well. Our hosts served us very well and we tried everything. If you get so much good and homemade food, you’d have to try everything!

On friday evening we had dinner at Schmankerlwirt Sampl. I had a pumpkin cream soup as a starter and a chanterelle goulash with bread dumplings as a main course – the mushrooms were the best I’ve had for a long time. Manuel ordered an onion roast joint with potatoes and he was also thrilled. I can really recommend this restaurant to you. If you ever come here, you have to visit.
