Sustainable holidays at Heyda Manor

The Heyda manor is a pioneer of sustainability! The ancestor of the current owner family, Hans-Carl von Carlowitz, chief miner in Freiberg, was the inventor of forest management and continuous reforestation in the 18th century, so that future generations could also experience forests and harvest wood.

The von Carlowitz family is still committed to this family heritage today and has been working continuously on the expansion of sustainable agriculture and sustainable accommodation since taking back the property in 1995.

Das Rittergut Heyda mit seinem barocken Schloss liegt im sächsischen Burgen-und Schlösserland, am Rande der idyllischen Dahlener Heide – das ist Natur, Kultur, Ferien und Genuss. Das ist ein Urlaubsort mit einer langen Geschichte. Das ist die Gegenwart, in die die Familie von Carlowitz wieder zurückgekehrt ist und nach dem Fall der Mauer und dem Wiederaufbau, historische Räume mit modernem Komfort für wunderbare Ferien auf dem Lande zur Verfügung stellt. Ob rudern auf dem eigenen See, wandern oder radfahren in der Dahlener Heide oder die reiche mitteldeutsche Kultur in Leipzig, Meissen, Dresden und Torgau erleben – das Rittergut Heyda und die Region Leipzig haben dem Urlauber viel zu bieten. 

The family has also implemented this lived sustainability in the renovation of the castle and the outbuildings: terrace wood and pieces of furniture made from their own woods decorate some of the holiday accommodations, which are supplied with solar energy and wooden stoves.

Dwarf chickens and rabbits romp around in the garden and a large herb, fruit and vegetable garden as well as the lake directly in front of the door are available for guests to share.

The gardener's house

The charmingly decorated Gardener's house has a private and beautifully designed garden and offers a wonderful tranquillity. A wood-burning stove in the kitchen and the fireplace in the living room provide cosy comfort in autumn and winter. Wood is included. The glass roof in the dining room ensures a light-flooded warm atmosphere.

The Rose Cottage

Living like Sleeping Beauty with a lake view! The former washhouse has had a real metamorphosis. For the renovation, the family mainly used natural building materials. The wood for the façade of the Rose Cottage comes from our own forest and the walls were painted with sandstone paint and natural pigments. The house has two bedrooms, a private terrace, a wood-burning stove and a bathroom with a bathtub.

The floor heating is powered by a wood-burning fireplace, and the free wood store is located right next to the apartment.
