We, the de la Barré family, warmly welcome you to our vacation rental in Potzlow. As a family with three wonderful children, we know how important it is to have a place where you can feel right at home. Our vacation rental has been designed with great attention to detail and reflects exactly what matters most to us: coziness, a connection to nature, and time spent together. While our children enjoy the area around the village, we as a family especially appreciate the peace and quiet and the unique atmosphere of this place. A special part of our farm life is raising our Galloway cattle. The animals live year-round on expansive pastures around Potzlow and feed mainly on grass, herbs, and hay—in a way that’s natural for them and stress-free. Extensive grazing and treating animals with respect are particularly important to us. The animals play a key role in preserving the natural vegetation and keeping the landscape open. In addition, as a family, we are actively involved in the care and preservation of the surrounding moorlands. Through targeted grazing and mindful management, we make a valuable contribution to protecting this sensitive ecosystem, which provides a habitat for numerous rare plant and animal species. We regularly offer high-quality beef from our own herd for sale—sustainably produced and ideal for those who enjoy meat responsibly. We’d be happy to provide information on availability or take your pre-order. For us, hospitality means making you feel welcome from the very first moment. We’re always happy to assist you with tips on the region, ideas for excursions, or personal recommendations—while also giving you the freedom to enjoy your vacation at your own pace. We look forward to welcoming you here!

The Potzlow Area—Nature, Tranquility, and Discovery The idyllic town of Potzlow is nestled in the rolling hills of the Uckermark—one of Germany’s most unspoiled and tranquil regions, often referred to as the “Tuscany of the North.” Surrounding the town is an impressive natural landscape of lakes, forests, marshes, and vast fields, each season revealing its own unique charm. At the heart of the region lie the picturesque Oberuckersee and Unteruckersee lakes in Prenzlau, whose clear waters invite you to swim, paddle, or simply relax on the shore. Numerous hiking and biking trails wind along the lake and through the gently rolling countryside—perfect for anyone who wants to actively enjoy nature. Just a short drive away lies the historic town of Prenzlau with its well-preserved city wall, the impressive Dominican Monastery of Prenzlau, St. Mary’s Church, and several cozy cafés. Here, history and a relaxed urban lifestyle blend together in a delightful way. Guided tours can be booked at city hall.
