About this house rental

Enjoy the full beauty of the Mosel river from direct views out of all front windows and balcony. Our Jewel of the Mosel townhouse is spread across 5 floors, giving commanding views from all levels. It is an ideal base for families and groups with the wide selection of sleeping arrangements which it offers. Everyone can come together in the very large kitchen/dining room or 'do their own thing' on other floors of the house. Be aware there are lots of stairs though - making the house exciting for children to explore!

Relax and sit watching the barges, river cruise ships and pleasure boats passing your windows and balcony on the Mosel. Step outside and board one of these for a trip to nearby Cochem or Traben Trabach. Sit outside under grape vines on the promenade or wander the streets of the town - all criss crossed by vines. Stroll up into the vineyards behind the house for magnificent views, or for the more energetic take well marked Nordic walking routes. There are even dog walks marked out by paw prints, and we are very pet friendly!

Enjoy sampling the famous wines from the local vineyards - you are sure to take home some bottles of the famous Zeller Schwarze Katz!

The house is well equipped and furnished so even on a rainy day you would be happy indoors (if you had not chosen to explore the exciting museums of Roman Trier!)

The property comprises of 250 sq metres of living space!

The house was wonderful and the views and areas were amazing!

The property was perfect for our stay. We stayed only 2 nights, but Zell is a pretty little town and was perfect to explore parts of the region. We were relatively short drives to Bacharach, Rudesheim, Bernkastel-Kues - beautiful towns in the Rhine/Mosel Valleys. There are steps in the unit to negotiate, but the kitchen was perfect, as was a deck that overlooked the Mosel. Bedrooms and bathrooms were nicely appointed and large. Bring toiletries. Overall, would highly recommend!

We are a big family and had trouble finding houses that could accommodate us but this house was a treasure. We all had space to stretch after a long five hour drive and there were plenty of restaurants nearby. The views were amazing and the location perfect. We would definitely stay again.

Great location. Easy walking distance to everything - restaurants, wine tasting, daily boat tours! Plenty of room for guests.

We stayed in the upstairs apartment which has 4 bedrooms. Plenty of space for the 5 of us but spacious enough for 8. It is right in the centre of Zell so the bakery is across the street and there are lots of cafes nearby. We loved to sit on the balcony and watch people walking by. The kitchen is fully equipped. A great location to explore the Moselle. We enjoyed the walks around Zell. The property is accessed with a key box. I emailed the owner a few days before we were due to arrive but only received the code on the day we arrived. This procedure could be explained on the website.

The location is perfect, beautiful view over Mosel. Comfortable beds and great water pressure in all bathrooms, even in fifth floor. Kitchen well stocked with pots and pans. House is quite outdated and was dirty.

Property is as advertised, plenty of space for our party. Kitchens both well equipped, all appliances functioned perfectly. Views of the river perfect. If you're looking for a home base for exploring this corner of Germany, this is a good option. Thanks for a nice stay!

We found the property easily. The manager was on hand to answer any questions. It was a fantastic location - balconies and frontage overlooking the magnificent Mosel! Plenty of great eateries around the corner! The facilities where very good too! If it was possible to squeeze another shower room on the second floor it would be perfect. Would definitely recommend this property and will definitely return soon!

Communication with property owner was great. The property had beautiful views of the river. The biggest complaint is that the accommodations smelled really bad.

We were there in very high temperatures (high 90's), which required us to shut it up fairly early, it faces west. Herr Joorman brought us a new fan for the upper bedrooms, as they were very hot. Sitting out on the balconies in the morning and after the sun went down was wonderful, and the lower floors stayed fairly cool, if opened up all night. You are within easy walking distance of anything in town (great bakery across the street), and it's a good base for exploring the Mosel valley. Our hosts were friendly, helpful, and responsive. Be aware that there are five flights of stairs for the whole unit, and you will use them more than you think, great exercise!

This house is truly a hidden jewel, as most Germans we spoke to had never heard of the village of Zell. As the home was literally right next to the town fountain, we were steps from bakeries, pizzerias, an award-winning metzgerei (butcher shop), ice cream shop and even a playground. Many summer hikers passed us on various routes through the countryside, and two cruise docks were visible from our window. The layout with multiple-sized ooms on multiple floors was perfect for our group of 4 families. The teenagers had their own floor, small children were down the hall from their parents, and the layout with two kitchens allowed for casual snacking and TV watching while the main meals were being prepared. The owner was very easy to communicate with (spoke English), and the property manager (English/German) even offered to arrange a wine tasting cruise for us on his personal yacht. Free nearby parking is better than advertised, and a very modern shopping plaza with multiple grocery stores is only 10 minutes drive across the river. On your drive over from Frankfurt, make sure you visit the Geierlay suspension bridge; the walk there is worth it! After our stay, we wished we would have booked this lodging for a week! A memorable family reunion highlighted by an incredible dwelling place!

We enjoyed our stay. There was plenty of room with a nice terrace for meals overlooking the Mosel. A central location to explore many neighboring towns all while having restaurants and shops just outside the front door.

Das Haus ist sehr zentral in Zell in der Fußgängerzone gelegen. Insbesondere von der großzügigen Wohnküche mit großem Esstisch und Panoramafenster hat man einen wunderschönen Blick auf die Mosel und den gegenüberliegenden Stadtteil Barl. Positiv überrascht hat uns die Küchenausstattung in Vielfalt und Qualität. Damit ist das Beste an der Wohnung bereits benannt. Leider überwiegen die negativen Erfahrungen. Auf unsere Reklamation des Reinigungszustandes der Wohnung wurde nur oberflächlich nachgebessert, was nicht wirklich geholfen hat. Da der Verwalter vor Ort auch nach mehreren Kontaktversuchen nicht zu erreichen war, haben wir uns direkt an die Vermieterin in England gewandt. Gebessert hat sich aber nichts. Nach drei Tagen kam der Verwalter vorbei, um die Mängel aufzunehmen, behoben wurde in unserer Urlaubswoche nichts davon. Schlafzimmer: o Staub und Dreck unter mehreren Betten (benutzte Taschentücher der Vorgänger) o Parkett lose und Teile herausgefallen o Steckdose nicht mehr fest in der Wand verschraubt Oberes Bad: o Völlig verdreckter Duschvorleger (Das erste was wir selbst gewaschen haben) o Verdreckte Lüftung o Regler der Tellerdusche abgebrochen, nicht nutzbar o Halter für die Duschbrause lose, Brausekopf musste in der Hand gehalten werden o Befestigung der gläsernen Duschabtrennung lose (uns sind die Schrauben entgegengefallen). Küche: o Alte Lebensmittel in den Küchenschränken o Pelletheizung völlig verdreckt und konnte nicht gestartet werden. (Der Verwalter hat es gar nicht erst probiert.) o Tote Fliegen im Lampenschirm o Sessel abgenutzt und fleckig Wohnzimmer: o Das Wohnzimmer verfügt über keinen eigenen Heizkörper und konnte aufgrund der niedrigen Raumtemperatur nicht genutzt werden. Der Verwalter wusste nicht, dass es keinen Heizkörper in dem Raum gab. Das Wohnzimmer soll über die Pelletheizung der Küche geheizt werden. o Staub und Dreck im Wohnzimmer unter dem Sofa Balkon: o Zerfetzte Fliegengaze an der Balkontür o Markise defekt o Balkonpflanzen verdorrt (liebloser und trostloser Anblick) o Alte Kippen der Vorgänger im Aschenbecher o Leere Zigarettenpackung unter dem Balkontisch o Möbel abgenutzt und zum Teil defekt Die Haustür schloss nicht zuverlässig, was einen groben Sicherheitsmangel darstellte. Wir mussten immer händisch abschließen. In fast allen Räumen defekte Leuchtmittel in den Lampen. Für eine größere Gruppe gut geeignet, schöne Lage, leider recht ungepflegt. Wir können die Wohnung nur bedingt empfehlen.

You must be prepared to deal with stairs but the property is conveniently located near restaurants, shopping and vineyards. The kitchen/dining area overloooks the Mosel river and the view from the balcony is very beautiful. Bus transportation is two blocks away. Bus to the Bullay train station takes about 10 min and trains from Bullay can take you to many attractions. There is a nice walking path along the river and a pedestrian bridge across the Mosel is just a block away. We did not have a car but found that to be of no consequence as everything we needed was within walking distance. A bakery is just a few meters from the front door if you want pastries for breakfast and there was a small local market close by. We found the town of Zell to be very nice and only wish we had more time to enjoy it.

We booked the top floors for three nights between Christmas and new year for 6 adults and 3 children. The apartment was just the right size for us, although if you are bringing more people they have a lower floor they can open up with another bedroom I think. The guy who welcomed us was a top bloke and gave us plenty of info about the house and local area. We never had to ring him for help but he gave us the impression he would have done anything for us! The bedrooms were clean with comfortable beds and we had a nice view of the river from the top floor. There was enough bathrooms for us to have one per couple and they were fine as far as I am aware! Plenty of shower gel shampoo etc. The kitchen and dining area was good we spent the little time we were at home in there. The table was big enough for us all to fit round and play games in the evening. Overall I would say everyone was happy with the house. Certainly there wasn't any complaints and my daughter was quite sad to leave! As for the location it was great although the village was pretty much shut down for the winter! But we visited both the restaurants that were open, both less than 2 mins walk from the door. The Italian just behind was nice and the owner made us feel very welcome. The Greek restaurant abit further down was outstanding, the food we had from there was probably the highlight of my holiday! We spent a day in cochem and visited the castle which was well worth a visit, the next day we got up early and went to girilay suspension bridge which was one of the main reasons I chose to come to this area. It was also worth a visit. And we went to the roman city of Trier which was good. Really I wanted to see burg Eltz but it was closed. I would possibly come back in the summer as it seems many of the things I wanted to do close for the winter. To summarise the apartment was great and we had no complaints at all! For the price Its good quality. Thanks!

Een grote eetkeuken op de ene verdieping en op de verdieping erboven een luie huiskamer met balkon. Onder de eetverdieping nog een keuken met een TV hoek. Perfect voor ons gezelschap van 3 kinderen en 10 volwassenen. Genoeg badkamers en toiletten. Mooi in het centrum van Zell. Mooie wandelroutes in de omgeving. Een aanrader!

This is a very attractive apartment with a spectacular view over the river from the balcony. Very spacious, with comfy beds, plenty of bathrooms to choose from and a lovely large kitchen. It was spotlessly clean, thanks to the efforts of Margot. Right in the centre of Zell with a tourist information centre a couple of minutes walk away. The only misunderstanding concerned the use of the washing machine. I always book apartments which provide a washer as we like to move around but travel light so tend to wash as we go. Since the washer/dryer in the actual apartment was in a locked room we assumed that we should use the one in the basement. However, when we went to pick up the washing we bumped into Margot who seemed really surprised we were using it and had taken our washed clothes out so that she could use it. She told us not to use the dryer until she had finished as it could blow a fuse. Not a problem, but I hadn't realised we would be sharing it. Since we were out by the time she was finished though, she was kind enough to run our things through the dryer and put them in our apartment. Zell is an ideal spot for a couple of days. Very small and quiet but pretty and relaxing. It doesn't have a supermarket though so if you come without a car as we did, it is easier to eat out. Our next port of call was Bernkastel-Kues. We had the option of taking the bus (about an hour and a quarter) or taking the boat from just outside the apartment (about 4 hours). In the end we opted for the boat and I'm so glad we did. The journey was really scenic, the time whizzed by and by the time we had something to eat and drink we had arrived. Definitely recommend!

We stayed in the house for 5 days in June 2015 - there were 3 couples and we had plenty of space - the kitchen is fantastic with lovely views over the river mosel as you are dining. The balcony area on the top floor was fantastic for a late night glass of wine/beer at the end of the day looking at the cruisers go by. The location of the house is right in the centre of Zell and the town itself is a perfect base for exploring the area. Would highly recommend and cannot wait to go back again - was the highlight of our 3 week holiday in Germany/Holland this year. - Edwina, Dublin
