Criteria for the “Auszeit-Hof” certificate
Retreats
The courtyard and the immediate surroundings offer a retreat that can be individually designed, for example for meditation.
Resting position
The farm is located away from the hustle and bustle and, thanks to its absolutely quiet location, offers a place to breathe deeply and recharge your batteries.
Relaxation
Guests can unwind with yoga options as well as restorative treatments such as massages.
Fasting & Cures
The farm operators actively encourage guests to take a break with selected offers such as fasting cures or digital detox.
There should be no place for hecticness on a time-out farm. The hosts are aware that their guests are looking for peace and quiet and need a break from everyday stress . By creating an environment and offerings that are good for the body and soul, the farm operators become active supporters of a regenerative time for stressed people. The requirements for a time-out farm are:
- There are retreats on the farm and in its surroundings that enable guests to individually design their time out, be it through meditation, breathing exercises or similar practices.
- The farm enjoys an absolutely quiet location with no disturbing hustle and bustle in the immediate area, which guarantees an undisturbed retreat.
- The time-out farms have rooms and equipment for yoga exercises or offer relaxing treatments such as massages to promote well-being.
- In order to optimally support the time out, the farms offer additional programs such as fasting cures or digital detox measures that contribute to recovery and regeneration.
In addition, all certified holiday farms must practice active, organic or sustainable agriculture . Many negative reviews can also speak against certification, especially if they contradict the certification.
The certification is awarded for 24 months .

- If the inspection is passed, the certificate is awarded (online and by post).

If the subsequent inspection by our team comes to the conclusion that the criteria for being presented as a break farm are not met, the certification will be immediately withdrawn. If there are more negative reviews about a farm, an on-site inspection is carried out - this can also be a " mystery guesting " visit.
