Our experienced coaches, like no other, know the path from a beginner to a skilled professional and are ready to share their expertise, helping children learn from mistakes that could otherwise hinder development and progress.
We offer an intensive week-long training course. Each day, sessions take place on our high-quality outdoor court at the Stuer estate. With two training sessions per day and a personalized approach, there's an opportunity to improve both technical and tactical skills. Additionally, coaches group children together based on areas where they need improvement.
Rain and wind outside? That's not a problem for us! A professional sports hall, just a 10-minute drive from home, is also available for us to use.
Except for exercise, what else is vital for young and old athletes alike? Apart from sleep?
Of course, it's nutrition!
Thanks to all the food on our estate being prepared according to bio standards, with vegetables grown our own farm, each child maintains a healthy balance of fats, proteins, and carbohydrates—essential for achieving the highest sports goals:)
Our famous cooking workshops are a must for our every guest. So far, we have not encountered a child who would not be eager to cook and thereby learn about the essentials of healthy cooking, compositions and benefits of produce as well as efficient ways to peel and cut fruits and vegetables.

Only passing through? Then consider joining us for a day of summer camp fun!
The Schloss Leizen manor was built in 1898 and was used as a hotel before it was extensively renovated in 2017 for a holiday manor for kids.
The castle has space for around 60 children and has a 1,200 m2 grass property surrounding the castle. You can find all sorts of things here: a professional volleyball field, a football field, a playground, an outdoor performance stage, a giant tent for eating and crafting activities, a shed for woodworking, and ping pong tables.
When the Schloss is full, some summer camp kids sleep at the farmhouse in Stuer, a 15-minute drive from Leizen. This renovated 19th-century red-brick building lies in the middle of the Mecklenburg Lake District, right next to a beautiful lake. The interior features high-quality wood finishes, with a toilet and shower, and a large common room for every 3 bedrooms, with 10 bedrooms in total. Meals are usually eaten outdoors. The surrounding property features an organic Demeter-certified farm, a small horse-riding ranch, a full-sized basketball court, volleyball field, football pitch, playground, ziplines, and a small coop with chickens and goats that kids love to pet.
Your kids deserve to eat delicious, healthy food, so that’s what we offer. Both of our locations have professional kitchens where we cook fresh organic demeter-certified dishes, often using ingredients from our own farm. In our cooking workshops, kids can participate in the cooking process and learn that fresh self-made food is the most delicious, whether it’s fresh cream with salt and herbs churned to make delicious butter or self-rolled and self-garnished pizza baked in our pizza ovens! We always take into account children with special dietary requirements such as vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, nut-free, histamine intolerance, and more.
Part of an exciting holiday is taking exciting trips. Most kids love Beach Day at the nearby Lake Dambeck, where we build rafts, go canoeing, enjoy the beautiful summer weather, and eat freshly grilled hot dogs and chilled sliced watermelon. Another trip we commonly do is to the Bear Forest. Kids start at The Farmhouse and walk for half an hour through a prairie landscape before arriving at a large bear conservatory housing rescued circus bears behind large fenced enclosures. Kids delight in seeing these endearing but terrifying animals up close! These standard trips are included in any camp offering and do not cost extra.
Once or twice a week, we organize a special trip that lasts either half a day or a full day. This is a real road trip - our long-distance buses take us to a nearby city, where we get to do a sightseeing treasure hunt, visit a museum, or, when the weather is nice, have a beach day at a Baltic Sea beach. The trip is topped off with a visit to the cinema, popcorn included.
Due to the costs associated, we charge an additional 50€ for a half-day trip and 100€ for a full-day trip. However, these trips are optional! The kids who don’t want to participate stay at the camp, where they go through a full-day programme as usual.
