In the midst of nature, surrounded by forest, fields, and dry stone walls, lies the small farm known as "Schott". For more than 300 years, the farm has always been a small homestead, primarily serving self-sufficiency. Even now, "Biohof Schott" is one of the smallest farms in the valley. Since 2014, the farm has been certified as an organic business, placing great value on natural diversity on a small scale.
The holiday apartment is located in the wooden building newly constructed in 2021 above the stable, adjacent to the barn. The only neighbors are the stable dwellers, the animals all around in nature, and of course the Schott farm family, who lives in the old farmhouse opposite. Sleeping in gently scented stone pine beds, cozy gatherings in the spacious eat-in kitchen with a wood stove, looking out at the grazing sheep all around, or experiencing the sunset on the terrace: a holiday here brings peace and relaxation.
The farm is easily accessible, there is a covered parking space, and the nearby excursion destinations are ideal for a varied holiday. Nature invites you to take part in various activities, and whoever wishes is of course welcome to actively help out with the diverse tasks on the farm.
For those interested in the history of the farm and life on a mountain farm, or who would like to learn more about organic farming or permaculture: the "Schotthof" farmers love to chat! There is also the opportunity to book a workshop at the "School on the Farm" (interesting not just for children and teenagers!): here you can dive a little deeper into the world of bees, learn more about the old sheep breed "Krainer Steinschaf" and sheep wool processing, or simply embark intensively on the "Organic Farm Experience" and discover exciting facts about organic farming here on the farm.
The small but fine selection of organic delicacies from the "Schotthof" can be enjoyed during your holiday and, of course, taken home as souvenirs and mementos of your days at the "Schotthof". Farm-gate sales are of course possible for our guests at any time by arrangement!
Please note: smoking is prohibited on our farm, as is lighting fireworks.
