In the season the restaurants of the sailing club Großenheidorn and the yacht club Steinhuder Meer are within walking distance (approx. 500m). In Großenheidorn there is a Greek and a German restaurant about 4km away. In Steinhude there are several restaurants and pubs about 6km away. The house is located in the nature reserve, in the immediate vicinity of the circular hiking trail Steinhuder Meer. In about 500m distance, next to the sailing club Großenheidorn, there is a small bathing island, called Mole by the locals, in front of which the water is very shallow, and therefore you can go swimming well with children. 800m away from the house there is a bus stop, from here you can get to Steinhude, Wunstorf, Großenheidorn, Kleinheidorn. From Wunstorf you can take the train to Hanover in 20 minutes and take advantage of the wide range of cultural activities on offer there. A lookout tower for nature and animal observation is located about 3 km from the house in the moor and can be reached on foot via the Runwanderweg.
