About this spot

Welcome to Bubble Tent Alpaka Alfonso in the Palatinate, in the middle of the vineyards of the Southern Wine Route, just a stone's throw from the French border.

Here at the Deutschhof live 13 alpacas, a winemaker called Martin and, for one night or ideally longer, you too. With views of the surrounding fields and sometimes a few fluffy four-legged friends, your semi-transparent bubble tent offers the best view of this wondrous patch of earth. Semi-transparent means you have a full view of the sky and the world outside – but an extra portion of privacy around you.

Picnic with alpacas and date night under the stars

Sweet country life is calling! In the bubble tent you have privacy and time for two, away from curious eyes. Now and then an alpaca might stand next to your tent and peer in as if it had all the time in the world – but honestly, in that moment, so do you. Take a leaf out of their book and roam as freely as these fluffy fellows, with no fixed plan for the day.
How about an alpaca hike through the vineyards? If you prefer something more relaxed, dive into the hot tub or enjoy the region's finest wines at a wine tasting – or both at once. Want even more wellness? The barrel sauna is waiting to help you sweat out the last bit of everyday stress.

Sounds like a plan? It is – but without any rush. And in the best (furry) company.

Der Gastgeber war sehr freundlich und nett. Das Zelt und die Umgebung waren ein Traum. Im Zelt oder Whirlpool zu sitzen, einen sehr leckeren Wein zu trinken und dabei die Alpakas zu beobachten war ein sehr schönes…

Your hosts

We are Ute and Martin Schowalter. Our family has lived on the Deutschhof in the Southern Palatinate since 1794 – today in its ninth generation, with our son Scott as the tenth. Deutschhof 29, 70 souls: our little Gaulish village. This is where our wines grow, where our alpacas live, and where you'll sleep in the bubble tent between vineyard and starry sky. It matters to us that you truly arrive: a glass of wine by the fire, peace among the alpacas, time for yourselves. Most guests' first words are: “Wow, it's beautiful here.” That's exactly why we do this. We look forward to welcoming you.

The surroundings

There's plenty going on during your short break in the Palatinate: the stars above you, wineries and alpacas all around – and France practically around the corner. So head to the many regional wine taverns or cross the border into Alsace! Or simply take it easy and watch the alpacas.
