We were a group of about 15, most of us from London, and it was wonderful to experience Winterberg in early December. Even though there wasn't any snow, we enjoyed several of the local hiking areas, as well as the town of Winterberg and local restaurants. The house itself is beautiful and easily accommodated our group with enough privacy while the communal areas were fantastic for our group events. The owners do live on the property and share the same entrance, but they were very respectful of our space during our visit.
