Holiday Apartments in Markdorf

Four apartments among the orchards of the Lake Constance hinterland – peaceful, personally run, and about fifteen minutes from the shore.

Markdorf sits where Lake Constance turns rural: in the gently rolling hinterland, surrounded by apple orchards and just a few kilometres from the water. The historic old town invites you to stroll past half-timbered houses, the Obertor gate and the Bischofschloss, while the Gehrenberg hill rises directly behind town, lookout tower and hiking trails included. Staying here means more peace and often better value than a place right on the shore – with Meersburg and Friedrichshafen still only around fifteen minutes away.

We welcome you to four holiday apartments in Markdorf, among them Ferienhaus Apfelblüte, a large holiday house sleeping up to 18 – well suited to family celebrations, trips with friends or team get-togethers. The apartments sit quietly among the orchards, come fully equipped, and are personally looked after by the Heinke Wohnraum team. You book directly with us: no platform fees, and your reservation is confirmed instantly.

Getting here is easy: by car via the B33, or by train on the Bodenseegürtelbahn line – the ride from Friedrichshafen to Markdorf station takes about a quarter of an hour. From your front door, the region opens up: Meersburg with its car ferry to Konstanz, Affenberg Salem, the prehistoric pile dwellings at Unteruhldingen and the lakeside villages of Hagnau and Immenstaad are all an easy drive away, and hiking trails up the Gehrenberg start right in town.

Why Markdorf?

Historic old town

Half-timbered houses, the Obertor gate and the Bischofschloss shape the streets around the market square. In December, the Lichterweihnachtsmarkt – a Christmas market of lights – fills the old town with a warm glow.

Gehrenberg lookout tower

Markdorf's local mountain rises to 754 metres, topped by a 30-metre lookout tower – on clear days the view stretches across Lake Constance to the Alps. Trails start right at the edge of town.

Apple country

Markdorf lies in the heart of Lake Constance's apple-growing region: blossom in spring, harvest in autumn. And you stay in more peace, often at better value, than right on the shore.

The lake in minutes

Meersburg with its ferry to Konstanz and Friedrichshafen with the Zeppelin Museum are around fifteen minutes away – and in the evening you return to the calm of the countryside.
