Hotel Waldhof auf Herrenland hosts seminars and workshops for up to 100 people, and parties and weddings for up to 150, with 17 bedrooms in its country house. The hotel stands in its own park on the Herrenland near Mölln, in the Duchy of Lauenburg district between Hamburg and Lübeck, a few minutes' walk from the Pinnsee, a small forest lake. In winter the whole house can be booked for one group.
Seminars and company events
Six rooms take groups from 10 to 150. The Gartensaal, about 82 square meters, holds up to 100 and has acoustic panels on the ceiling, so a plenary of that size runs without a sound system. The Kaminzimmer and the small meeting room suit workshops of 16 to 18, and the barn takes the largest groups. The rooms have floor-to-ceiling windows and open directly onto the park.
Fiber internet at 1,000 Mbit/s and Wi-Fi cover the house, and each booking can include metaplan walls, flipcharts, a projector and a screen. One day package combines two coffee breaks with a light lunch and a three-course dinner, another two breaks with a three-course lunch, and a residential package adds a night in a double room for single use with a breakfast buffet.
For team time the hotel suggests garden evenings with a grill in spring and summer, a campfire with punch and stick bread in winter, and raclette or fondue evenings for up to 20. Outside providers run archery, obstacle courses and Boßeln, a traditional throwing game, at the Pinnsee, and the park has a high ropes course.
Weddings and receptions
Weddings range from intimate parties in the Kaminzimmer to banquets at round tables in the Gartensaal, or a rustic evening in the barn with suckling pig from the spit. Couples can marry in a free ceremony under the old trees of the park, or in one of the small churches in the neighboring villages. The wedding package covers a sparkling wine reception, a set menu or a buffet, a midnight snack and an eight-hour drinks package, with extensions by the hour. The house has held its own wedding fair for 16 editions, which gives couples a chance to see the rooms set up.
Rooms and capacities
The Scheune, a barn of about 240 square meters, takes up to 150. The Gartensaal takes up to 100, the restaurant, about 40 square meters, up to 30, the Kaminzimmer, about 53 square meters, up to 18, the small meeting room, about 32 square meters, up to 16, and the Veranda, about 22 square meters, up to 10.
Accommodation
The country house has 17 rooms with 45 beds in total. Wedding guests who stay overnight can share breakfast in the park the next morning.
Catering
The hotel kitchen cooks for all events. Through the year it runs seasonal buffets, from spring and asparagus to a summer barbecue in the park, game from the Holstein forests in autumn and a duck feast in November, which gives an idea of the style a group can expect.
Getting there
By car, leave the A24 at the Talkau exit and follow the B207 toward Mölln-Nord. Mölln station lies on the regional line between Lübeck and Lüneburg. Hamburg Airport is the nearest international airport.
