The Old Vicarage

Film-maker Martin and visual artist Marieken spent years searching Europe for a place they could transform into the kind of bolthole they’d want to holiday: a place of simple luxuries. Eventually, they came upon 2-hectares in Uckermark: a crumbling former vicarage from the 1870s with a barn, stable buildings and a beautiful old garden. They spent years transforming it, resulting in a breathtaking collection of unique hideouts, each completely private and completely different.

Your connection to nature is key here, and cabins overlook meadows while loft apartments are surrounded by orchards. The farm shop is packed full of produce grown on-site, and you can go and pick your own veggies. You’re in the Uckermark, meaning adventurous hikes, bike rides and wild-swims are all on your doorstep. This is the perfect retreat for those seeking to disconnect from devices, and reconnect with oneself.
