Barr House | Le Nid, an Alsatian house on the wine route between Strasbourg and Colmar

4 Bedroom House in Barr

On our property you will find two gîtes: Le Nid, which sleeps 6-8 people, with 4 bedrooms (2 by 2 interconnecting), 2 bathrooms, a terrace, and a sauna (125m²); and Le Jardin, which sleeps 8-10 people, with 4 bedrooms, a terrace, and 2 bathrooms (180m²). Each gîte must be booked separately.
They are located in two independent, typical Alsatian half-timbered houses and overlook a backyard and a large enclosed garden of 12 acres.
Located in the heart of Alsace, 20 minutes from Strasbourg and 30 minutes from Colmar.
At the crossroads of the Alsace wine routes, the Romanesque Route, and the Sauerkraut Route, you can access it via exit 13 of the A35, by train from Barr station, by bike on the Alsace cycle paths, and on foot via the GR5.
The accommodations are located in the center of the village, where all shops and restaurants are within walking distance.
The gîte, "Le nid de cigognes" (the stork's nest between the street and the garden), has been renovated in the spirit of our grandparents' interiors with modern comforts. It covers 140m²: 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, all centered around the fully equipped kitchen and the large living room. Bedrooms 1 and 2, as well as 3 and 4, are adjoining. NEW: a sauna and a relaxation room with TV and free Wi-Fi.
The gîte, in the Jardin des Hespérides, has been open since July 2015. It combines modern comfort with old-world charm in 180m², with 4 bedrooms, including a master suite, 2 bathrooms, and a large 30m² terrace accessible from the kitchen and dining room.
After the porch, the courtyard, cool in summer, opens onto a vast space: the garden.
The garden welcomes you in fine weather for a picnic on the grass, a lunch in the garden furniture, and a barbecue in the shade of the century-old trees.
The chicken run brings life to this peaceful and timeless place.
Two hours from Paris by TGV, Alsace is a region bordering Germany and Switzerland. The Rhine Plain stretches from north to south for over 200 km.
Bordered to the east by the Rhine and to the west by the Vosges Mountains. These varied landscapes offer opportunities for walks such as boat trips on the backwaters of the old Rhine, bike rides, and wonderfully documented hiking trails maintained by volunteers from the Vosges Club association.
You can crisscross Alsace from north to south, following the seasons along various routes: the Crest Route, the Alsace Wine Route, the Romanesque Route, the Sauerkraut Route, the Tobacco, Oil, and Hops Route, as well as circuits that extend beyond the region, such as the cycle routes, EuroVelo 5, 6, and 15, and long-distance hiking trails, such as the GR5 linking the tip of Denmark to Corsica.
Throughout your travels, you will discover the rich rural heritage, wonderfully preserved and maintained by the Alsatians, proud of their region and its character.
The Ungersheim Ecomuseum, south of Colmar, showcases traditions, folklore, and crafts of yesteryear, as well as aspects of its industrial heritage. The Vosges foothills boast more than 400 fortified castles, including Haut-Koenigsbourg, which was rebuilt in a massive project in 1908. Another Alsatian landmark is the Mont Sainte-Odile massif, at the foot of which nestles the small town of Barr. The monastery of Sainte-Odile is still a place of retreat and welcomes pilgrims. Mont Sainte-Odile and Barr are located on the pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela.
Strasbourg is the main city, the capital of Christmas. It has preserved neighborhoods that bear witness to the architecture of the Middle Ages to the present day. This is where you can discover the tanners' district, known as "Little France," with its half-timbered houses and narrow streets, providing a setting for the Cathedral, a true masterpiece of Gothic art, and the more recent neighborhoods where several European institutions are headquartered, such as the European Parliament and the European Court of Human Rights.
Mulhouse, a city with a vibrant industrial heritage, offers museums such as the Automobile Museum, a unique collection of vintage cars, the Railway Museum, the Fabric and Wallpaper Museum, and Electropolis.
In between, Colmar is not to be outdone with its picturesque "Little Venice" neighborhoods and the birthplace of Auguste Bartholdi.
Let's not forget Alsatian gastronomy with sauerkraut, but also baeckeoffe, tartes flambées, fried carp, matelottes, and more, always accompanied by a dry Riesling or a fruitier Klevener, Pinot Gris, or Gewürtztraminer wine.

Summary: We loved the house and especially the amazing garden. The kids could pick fruit as they liked. The village Barr is nice and historical. The owners are so very kind and nice to communicate with.

Summary: My husband and I spent 3 months at Gite le nid de cigognes. The expectations of our stay in Alsace were exceeded due to our hosts Nicole and Jean-Luc Dreyer and their family, their Alsatian origins, their lovely property and its location in Alsace. The large property is in the middle of an old village on the wine route, hosting historic buildings and gardens; truly unique. The entry is dated 1574. When the property doors are open, visitors stop for pictures. The gite is clean and the galley kitchen is equipped for cooking with major applicanes, roasting pans, pots, tableware, and cooking accessories. We prepared most of our meals in the gite and enjoyed eating outside on our porch. The gite was spacious with 3 floors. The 3 showers provided hot water and appropriate water pressure. The gite’s architecture dates from the 1600’s, for a true Alsatian experience. The renovation done by the Dreyers has modernized electric, plumbing and appliances, which all work well. The bedding was comfortable and sheets made of quality linen cloth. There is a lower room with TV where we connected our Apple TV. The Wifi which is intermittent. The main living area is simple with floor and ceiling lighting, good natural light, has a couch and dining table for 8. There is parking in the secure environ of the complex. The property is large with beautiful gardens, sitting areas and animals. The Dreyers are active in maintaining this historic property and have new projects ongoing to enhance it. Barr is a wonderful place to explore Alsace. The village hosts a Saturday weekly market, with fresh produce, cheese, meats, fish, and bakers. Since Barr is along the wine route, there are many vignerons in the village and others are within walking, biking or driving distance. We went to two wine festivals in neighboring villages, just a walk away. We only had to walk out the door to quickly access hiking trails. Jean-Luc is a certified hiking guide and we were fortunate to join him and Nicole in a couple of wonderful hikes. A small grocery is in Barr and another larger grocer in the next village. The Dreyers live on the property and made us feel welcome and comfortable. They were generous in sharing from their garden, homemade products and a tarte flambe dinner cooked in their wood fired oven. Nicole’s elegant graciousness and Jean-Luc’s enthusiastic love of life made our Alsatian experience special. I would love to return here.

Summary: Our family adored this beautiful house! The owners were lovely and so helpful. The house was well equipped with everything we needed. Our children loved feeding the goats and chickens and the garden was so beautiful that we spent a day painting it. We treasure our time in Barr and we will definitely choose this rental again when we return.
Matt H. Jul 25, 2016 12:03:30 PM
Summary: The property is a step back in time, loaded with antiques and history itself. Nice courtyard to relax in. The owners live in next building and are easy to contact. Owners are fluent in at least English, German, and French.
