Das Landgut Stüttem hosts conferences, workshops, product presentations, team days, company parties, family celebrations and weddings, with 16 bedrooms on site for groups that stay overnight. The estate lies in open country in the Bergisches Land, about 5 km from Wipperfürth on the road to Lindlar, east of Cologne. Its main room is a hall of more than 130 m², and smaller groups use a vaulted cellar and a fireplace room.
Seminars and company events
Meetings take place in the Großer Saal, a hall of more than 130 m² with a large glass front and its own terrace. It is set up for presentations, training and plenary work. Smaller formats, such as a product launch for a few clients or a wine or whisky tasting, fit into the Enothek, a vaulted cellar of about 25 m². In good weather the team moves brainstorming sessions and creative workshops into the park, under old trees. There is no fixed package list. The estate builds each offer around the format, from a one-day workshop to a customer event, and puts organizers in touch with partners for team activities or special technical needs. Company celebrations, summer parties and Christmas parties follow the same approach, with receptions such as a sparkling wine welcome, a mimosa bar, a waffle bar or an afternoon coffee.
Weddings and receptions
Couples have the estate to themselves on the day. Civil, church and free ceremonies are possible, and the free ceremony takes place outdoors on the grounds. The hall opens onto the terrace and the park for drinks, while the fireplace room and the vaulted cellar give quieter corners. Anniversaries, birthdays, christenings, communions and confirmations are also hosted.
Rooms and capacities
The Großer Saal is the main room for banquets, meetings and parties, with daylight from its glass front and direct access to the terrace and park. The Enothek, in the vaulted cellar, suits small meetings, tastings and rustic dinners. The KaminZimmer, a room with a fireplace, doubles as the estate's restaurant. Outside, the garden with its old trees serves summer parties, ceremonies and outdoor workshops. The website gives room sizes rather than guest numbers, so the team confirms capacities with each request. A virtual 3D tour on the site lets organizers check the layout before a visit.
Accommodation
The hotel has 16 rooms: 11 doubles, 3 singles and 2 junior suites with balconies. Rooms in the old half-timbered house have furniture painted with traditional folk motifs, while those in the newer wing are furnished mostly in white. Every room has a private shower and toilet, a TV and free Wi-Fi, and some doubles also have a bathtub. Rooms are reserved for events, conferences and groups only: individual guests cannot book, and attendees reserve through the event host. Breakfast is offered as an extra.
Catering
Kitchen and service are in-house, run by the operator, Hediger & Goll Events & Catering. Banquet menus, rustic dinners in the vaulted cellar and barbecue or smoker dishes are part of the repertoire. The KaminZimmer restaurant opens by arrangement for groups and smaller parties; there is no walk-in service.
History and setting
The estate's history goes back to 1347, and it reopened in June 2018 under its current team. A half-timbered farmhouse, a newer wing and a park with old trees make up the grounds, surrounded by the hills and meadows of the Bergisches Land.
