This stout half-timbered house shelters simple pine-clad quarters, which are a little dated but perfectly comfortable. Spacious family rooms are available. The restaurant (mains €15 to €21) plays up Black Forest and Badisch flavours in dishes such as venison goulash with Spätzle (egg pasta) and whole-baked trout with almond butter. There's an appealing terrace in summer.
