Your host family
The people behind Ciastel
Margareth is the calm heart of the house and a passionate cook. With great dedication, she constantly strives to delight her guests’ palates. She is particularly committed to using fresh ingredients from her own garden and the surrounding area.

‍Günther works full-time and actively helps out on the farm in his free time—a balance he greatly values. With his creative ideas, he also helps to make Ciastel its offerings special time and again.

Regionality, sustainability, and nature are particularly close to Michael’s heart. When he isn’t searching for new ideas and inspiration, he passionately oversees the organization and development of Ciastel.
Anna is the creative force behind the house. With a keen eye for detail and a flair for aesthetics, she gives Ciastel special and personal atmosphere.

Little Heinrich brings life, joy, and lots of smiles to Ciastel every day. As the youngest member of the family, he already creates a cheerful atmosphere and reminds us to enjoy the little moments.
