    Excellent location on the Moessel with a view of the castle. For a group of three the apartment offered 2 en suite rooms and a well supplied kitchen. The sofa bed was comfortable for a 6ft 2 man. The owner was very communicative.

Company information

We operated other guest rooms in Cochem, as well as a holiday apartment above our wine house on Schrombekaulplatz in Cochem. We took over the Pension Altes Fährhaus in January 2023 and partially renovated it and are very much looking forward to the new, additional challenge.

Property information

The house was built in 1911 and used as a ferry house, so there are stairs directly opposite the house and a barrier-free descent to the Moselle. At that time there was no bridge and therefore the ferry was the only connection for humans and animals to get to Cochem! It is now a historic building, which has been expanded again and again into our beautiful guesthouse in recent years.
