14 Schwarzer Schwan: the largest suite, right on the water.
The Schwarzer Schwan (black swan) is the largest unit at the Schlossresidenz: 250 m² in the pond house, with a fireplace, several rooms and a terrace on the natural swimming pond, where the estate's black swans sometimes swim too. The calendar shows free nights and you book directly, for one night just as for several weeks.
The rooms
Sleeping and living area by the fireplace, a lounge and a sitting area, a kitchen looking outside, a dedicated workspace, two bathrooms and the terrace on the water. The kitchen is stocked with Meissen porcelain, not for the display cabinet but for every day.
Amenities
Free Wi-Fi, a radio and heated parquet floors. The kitchen has WMF kitchenware, Siemens appliances, a coffee machine, a kettle and tea. There is also a minibar, towels, a hairdryer and Rituals care products. When you arrive, fresh flowers are waiting in the room, along with honey from our own bees to taste.
You will also find our own book in the room: the birds the rooms are named after, and the history of Schloss Ricklingen. It is there to browse during your stay, and if you would like to keep it, you can buy it for €65.
Bathrobes and bath towels for the sauna are ready right there, with showers next to it. Bicycles have their own shelter, and there is an EV charging point at the car park. Parking is included, charging is billed separately.
Who it suits
Guests who are living near Hanover for a longer period and want the space of a villa, and anyone who would like to spend the evening by their own fireplace.

Why Schwarzer Schwan
The black swan comes from Australia, where it is the emblem of the state of Western Australia. Its plumage is almost entirely black, its bill bright red with a white band. In Europe it long stood for something that could not exist, until it was found. It is at home on the ponds of the estate, and now and then it swims right up to this suite.
What is included
Parking in front of the door, free Wi-Fi, plus sauna, gym, tennis court, organic swimming pond and bicycles, as for all guests of the house. Pets are not permitted. Anything else you would like included in a long stay, we agree with you personally.
