Vacation & Architecture
Just you, nature & the KLEINE BLEIBE
the Kleine Bleibe
“Vacation means switching off.”
The head. The everyday life. And preferably the smartphone, too. But in this hectic world, there are hardly any places left that let us really switch off. Stimuli and impulses lurk everywhere. That's why we created the KLEINE BLEIBE: A place where you can find the peace and quiet you crave.
The KLEINE BLEIBE offers you a vacation in solitude. Far away from stress and digital overstimulation you will find absolute relaxation in our minimalist vacation homes. Here, only you count - and that which is not there: No television. No telephone. And if you want, no reception either.
Architecture
Tradition meets Philosophy
Each of our vacation homes is unique. Their architecture fuses the local environment in which they are located and the philosophy they embody - thought out to the smallest detail and crafted with dedication.
Tradition
Listed half-timbered houses characterize the image of the village center. The solid base and the black wooden facade of the houses pay homage to this traditional construction method. Thus, the KLEINE BLEIBE fits perfectly into the townscape - and yet bears its own signature.
Philosophy
Vacations in a simple and sustainable form - that is the core idea of KLEINE BLEIBE. And the personal and timeless architecture of the houses gives it expression: thoughtful but discreet details, high-quality materials and a purist look radiate what you want to find inside: peace and balance.
Eye to eye with nature
The height and arrangement of the houses are chosen in such a way that when you look out of the window you will always see the beauty of the surrounding landscape and nature.
Construction with environmental protection
Beautiful old trees line the surroundings of the homes. We placed the houses in such a way that the plum and walnut trees were not endangered.
Robust & sustainably manufactured
Concrete components in contact with the ground - we have built the vacation homes robustly and yet in a way that conserves resources. The walls, facade, insulation, ceilings, roof as well as the furniture are made of wood. Inside you will find solid wood floorboards, robustly polished concrete and water-resistant tiles. All paths, terraces and parking spaces have a surface that can be drained.
In dialogue with nature
Window openings allow the rooms to merge with nature. In line with traditional building culture, the houses have a roof overhang.

GOOD TO KNOW
This is what you should know before you come to the KLEINE BLEIBE:
Location
KLEINE BLEIBE is located in the center of Reckenthal - a small village in the Westerwald with only 114 inhabitants. Here you can fully enjoy the peace and quiet and will only meet hikers and local residents. Opposite the KLEINE BLEIBE is the Brunnenstube - ideal for refreshment at the end of an active day. And on the playground next door, even the little guests can really let off steam.
Preparation
Before you move into KLEINE BLEIBE and make yourself comfortable, we recommend that you stock up on everything you need, as there are no shopping facilities in Reckenthal. We recommend you to do your buying in Montabaur at Via Del Gusto (Italian grocery store) or at the organic food store.
Technical equipment
In the KLEINE BLEIBE you will find relaxation. That's why we have deliberately dispensed with everything that generates voltage - and thus also with electrical appliances. Apart from a stove, a refrigerator, a hairdryer and a WLAN router (which you can switch off at any time) you will not find any appliances here. You boil water in a pot and wash dishes by hand in a meditative and communal way.
Sustainability
The careful treatment of our environment is particularly important to us. All textiles and items at KLEINE BLEIBE are therefore made from sustainable and natural resources.
