Leiwen, Germany
Landal Sonnenberg
Landal Sonnenberg is a wooded holiday park in Leiwen, right in the heart of Germany's Moselle wine country, offering apartments and bungalows along with a restaurant, two pools and a programme of activities. If you own a week here, or you're considering buying or renting one, here's a clear, fact-based look at the resort, the area and how a private sale or rental actually works.
The Resort and Setting
Landal Sonnenberg sits at Sonnenberg 1 in Leiwen-Ferienzentrum Sonnenberg, tucked into the wooded hillsides above the Moselle River. It's part of the Landal group, which runs a large number of holiday parks across Europe, and this one is built around self-catering apartments and bungalows rather than a hotel-style block. On site, guests have a restaurant, two pools and a range of organised activities to fill a week without needing to leave the park. With a 4.4 out of 5 rating from over 3,300 Google reviews, it's clearly a resort that keeps families and couples coming back, whether they're after a few quiet days or a more active break.
The Area and Things to Do
Leiwen is a genuine Moselle wine village, and the vineyards start almost where the resort's grounds end. This is terraced-vineyard country, with steep riesling slopes running down to the river, making it an easy place to spend a week on foot or by bike. The Moselle cycle path runs along the river and connects a string of villages, so it's simple to plan a day trip without a car. Wine estates in and around Leiwen open their doors for tastings, and the region's restaurants build their menus around what's grown on the hillsides above them — expect hearty Moselle cooking served alongside the local rieslings. History buffs will also find medieval castles within easy reach throughout the valley, making this as much a cultural base as a wine-and-walking one.
Selling or Renting a Week Here
If you own a week at Landal Sonnenberg and are ready to move on, BidMyTimeshare.com lets you list it directly as a private, owner-to-owner resale or rental — you set your own asking price, and interested buyers or renters contact you through the platform. There's a one-time listing fee to post your week, and BidMyTimeshare.com takes 0% commission on the sale, so what you agree with a buyer is what you keep.
Because specific transfer fees and any right of first refusal for Landal Sonnenberg haven't been independently verified for this listing, treat those details as something to confirm directly with Landal or the resort's owners' association before agreeing a price with a buyer. Ask about the current transfer fee, how long a transfer typically takes to process, and what the annual maintenance fee is at present, since these vary and should be disclosed upfront to any serious buyer. A resale buyer should expect to receive the usage rights tied to your specific week and unit type, but not necessarily any loyalty perks or promotional extras that were personal to your original purchase — worth clarifying with Landal directly so there are no surprises after the transfer completes.
Renters, meanwhile, are typically looking for straightforward things: which week or season is on offer, unit size, proximity to the pools and restaurant, and whether the surrounding wine harvest season — a particularly popular time in this region — is included.
Practical Notes
The nearest major airport is Frankfurt am Main International Airport, roughly 2.5 hours away by car or train, which makes this a comfortable long-weekend or week-long trip for international visitors flying in. Leiwen itself has limited public transport beyond regional connections, so most guests arrive by car, which also makes exploring the wider Moselle valley and its villages much easier during a stay.

Travel Tips
Late summer into early autumn brings the wine harvest season, a lively and scenic time to visit the Moselle valley, though it can also be a busier, more popular stretch. Spring offers a quieter alternative, with wildflowers on the terraced vineyard slopes and fewer crowds. Since Leiwen is a small village, having a car makes it much easier to reach surrounding wine estates and castles at your own pace.
