Holidays with a dog at the lake - Favourite destination Holsteinische Schweiz

Gentle hilly landscapes, plenty of water and pleasant tranquillity: a time-out with your dog at a lake in Holstein feels instantly relaxing. Holsteinische Schweiz and the Holstein Lake District in particular are considered the ideal region for a versatile dog holiday - with plenty of space for exercise, idyllic nature and pet-friendly accommodation close to the shore.

The Holsteinische Schweiz Nature Park

Meadows, forests and more than 200 lakes characterise the Holsteinische Schweiz Nature Park. Covering an area of around 75,000 hectares, it offers the perfect base for an active and nature-loving holiday with your dog in Holstein. Over 2,000 kilometres of hiking and walking trails invite you to discover the region step by step and on four paws. Idyllic riverside paths and unspoilt hiking routes are particularly suitable for walks with your four-legged friend.

The perfect destination for a break with your dog by the lake

The charming holiday resort of Malente is located on the Holstein Lake District and is a real insider tip for a holiday with your dog by the lake. The direct waterfront location between Kellersee and Dieksee, plenty of green nature and the relaxed atmosphere make Malente a favourite destination for a dog holiday in northern Germany.

As a hotel with a dog right on the lake, Gut Immenhof offers the perfect starting point for your nature break: just a few steps separate you from the cool water, you can hire canoes and SUPs at the Gutshof, and there is also a small bathing area right on site.

Or a short trip to the Baltic Sea?

If you fancy the sea in between, you can reach the Baltic Sea in a short time. A trip to the water, for example to Hohwachter Bucht or Lübeck Bay, can be wonderfully combined with a stay in Holsteinische Schweiz - ideal for all those who love dog holidays on the Baltic Sea as much as the special tranquillity of the lake landscape around Gut Immenhof.

Dog-friendly hotel - Welcome to the Immenhof

Between paddocks, Herrenhaus and old stables, which today house stylish rooms, we welcome you to Hotel Gut Immenhof. You may have already guessed it: our Immenhof is a place with history - not a classic hotel, but a manor house with character. The old estate ensemble on the Kellersees has been renovated over many years and today offers comfortable room categories ranging from double rooms to maisonettes and suites.

Of course, you will also find selected accommodation for your holiday with your dog in Holstein at our hotel. While the Hof Maisonette and See Maisonette are part of the Hof ensemble, the holiday flats are a few minutes' walk from the estate. With two bedrooms each, all three types of accommodation offer enough space for several guests plus pets. Our tip: If you are looking for the greatest possible peace and privacy, our Holstein holiday flat with dog is the ideal choice.

Did you know: Gut Immenhof is also home to restaurants & bar, a spa and farm shops. Events and leisure activities round off the estate's programme. So you can organise your hotel break in a quiet or varied way - just the way you like it.
