Balancehaus

We had a lovely day under the tent with our small group, even though the weather was really bad. The hostess was friendly and relaxed, and everything had been organized so well. We were celebrating our son’s 18th birthday with a brunch buffet and birthday cake. The food was all delicious, with some homemade dishes made from the farm’s own produce. Great value for money. Thanks so much for everything! Niklas and family

The service deserves 10 stars. We spent a wellness week with Grit at the Balance House in Kohren-Sahlis, and it was a real balm for the soul. It’s a small house with personal care and wonderfully tasty, healthy food, a proper break from the stress back home. Every bit of the trip was worth it. I highly recommend it. Thanks so much, Gretchen!

At Balancehaus, it’s perfectly fine to do nothing and just relax. I stayed four nights in mid-November in the lovingly restored half-timbered house and felt completely at ease. Grit, who really is the heart of the place, handled registration and communication with no fuss, then organized everything around what I needed. We talked through what was keeping me from feeling balanced, and she led the coaching sessions. Kinesiology, massage, body wraps, exercise in the forest, autogenic training and the sauna all helped me unwind and focus on what matters in life. Grit is warm, welcoming and passionate about looking after people. She even finds time to make delicious meals on the side: three courses at lunch and dinner, with special requests taken care of too. There were deep conversations, kind words, hugs and possible solutions when I needed them. I’m so grateful for the retreat and would do it again in a heartbeat. It’s a lovely place not far from Leipzig, whether you have a day or a whole week to switch off and find some peace. Grit will work out a program to suit you and make things happen.

If you want peace and quiet, this charming little house is just the spot. There’s something to notice in every corner, and the place has been restored, kept up and expanded with so much care. Kettle and tea are available in the room and common area, and they serve homemade wine straight from the barrel. Grit is a warm, friendly and enthusiastic host. Breakfast is wonderful, with homemade jam, tasty cheese and good coffee, and she’s happy to cater to what you’d like.
