More than 90 years ago a carver and hunter named Huggler built a small restaurant, deliberately hideing it between two big lime trees. A family on their sunday walk or a couple in love would eventually find it after a short hike on a small trail. Soon, the small restaurant was famous for its juicy game plates or the huge pieces of cake with fresh picked berries from the woods. Most of the times, though, some guests were too tired to go back home. In the beginning they were content with the little heystack in the small barn. But soon enough, people were asking for simple rooms to stay over night. So this was the beginning of the "Pension Lindenhof".

In 1922 the Lindenhof-property was bought by Miss Hedwig Michel, the founder of the Horticultural School for Young Ladies. The school had been in the Chalet Bettina for the last five years. After getting married to Mr. Carl Fotsch, who was manager of the estate on Schloss Chartreuse in Hünibach near Thoune, Ms. Michel continually improved and expanded the school. Mr. Eduard Jobin, Mr. Peter Grossmann and the Egli-Brothers, Jakob and Heinrich, bought the bordering pieces of land. At that time, the Horticultural School for Young Ladies was the best school of this kind for women. But the end of the school was soon to be. After World War II, in the late forties, early fifties, the school was closed down.

Stairs and lanes, terrasses and beds for sprouting deteriorated more and more, since there was nobody to take care of the estate anymore. Piece by piece, the school was sold (the nursery near the Catholic Church, the Bannholz, the Blumenhof, the Lindengut, etc.). The rest of the Lindenhof was made into a pension. But here too, time was eating away at the buildings.

Ever since, we have created new Adventure Rooms or remodeled old ones. At the moment we are up-to-date and able to constantly surprise and take care of the big Lindenhof-Guest-Family.
