Our house was traditionally constructed using bricks. The interior fittings were done by the best carpenters in South Tyrol with fine furnishings and lovingly created details made to measure from solid wood (including old spruce, Swiss pine and old oak). The roof, floor and balconies are made from local spruce and larch wood as well as thermo pine.
Our contribution to the environment:
- organic construction
- autonomous energy supply (own wood chip plant)
- natural thermal insulation (wood fibre insulation)
- energy-saving heating
- rainwater harvesting
- wood from local forests
In addition we pay attention to lots of other little things:
- Each guest receives a Mirabell drinking bottle - as a replacement for plastic bottles e.g. when hiking
- Certified organic detergent sourced from a local company
- Comfortable fluffy fabric slippers rather than plastic flip-flops
- Refillable disinfectant dispensers throughout the house
- Towels and bed linen are only changed when necessary
- Paper straws instead of plastic straws
- Hotel renovation carried out by local companies
“Everything, what is against nature, will not last for long.” – Charles Darwin
Thanks to photovoltaic systems and the use of natural resources, we use green electricity and have our own independent energy supply.
Energy efficiency, for example through thermal insulation and energy-saving heating, is a top priority. The whole interior of the building is fitted with underfloor heating, the maximum flow temperature is 30 °C. Resource conservation is also important to us: The water for flushing the WC and irrigating the green areas comes from our own spring or our 20,000 l rainwater tank.
