The Chalet is built with old and new materials from the village Unken and the Saalachtal Valley. The house has the most modern eco standard on the inside - but what you get to experience is local history. All the wood you get to see is from an old mail horse stables, which were already used by Napoleon, when he conquered our valley in 1806.
The fassade and a lot of furniture was made of rare oak wood, that was waiting in a forgotten cabin for more than forty years to become part of the house.
All doors are unique pieces which found in old castles, stables or restaurants. The roof consists of handmade tiles by a small local factory. And all the walkways are made of stones from two village-rivers. All of them were collected by the owner.
The Achberghütte is located on a field of more than 12.000 m2, which belonged to the local Kramerwirt, one of Unken's oldest restaurants. It was used for growing the grass for the animals, for the cultivation of grains to bake bread or to store wood from the surrounding forests. It was made this field our garden - with lots of fruit trees, berries, nuts, roses and all kinds of wild flowers. The owner dedicate the garden back to nature - to the wild spices and the endangered animals - and to for the guests.
The owner has tried to make this place a good spirit. Experience it, live it, feel it - and go on a discovery of your emotions. The quietness of this magical world will accompany you at this place, from the inside to the outside.
