About this property

House in the middle of the Swiss Alps

  • The living area is divided into two floors:

    On the ground floor the kitchen, dining and living room is drawn into a space around the stand in the center fire. Through a door man reaches the staircase, wardrobe and the bathroom.

    From the well-equipped kitchen of the main entrance goes beyond the seat. From there, man has a great view of the mountains with the Fünffingerstöcke.

    The upper floor has a bathroom and two bedrooms with floor-level beds. On the shelves there has books and board games.

    In the basement is the cellar with a nice selection of wines from around the world. The wine cellar is open to guests (for a fee).

    Just below the seat is the onsite parking. A second parking lot is in front of the house.

    !!!! Important for the winter stay !!!!

    Please travel with a winterized car with snow chains.

    The driveway on the Sustenstrasse can be closed when there are large amounts of snow.

    The Garielenhaus got its name from its former owners. The house, however, has a long history behind it, exactly when it was built is not known. The number before the House Heidenmauer is supposed to protect the defense work before the, over the Sustenpass coming, Heiden. Between the house and the opposite chapel The old mule trail to Wassen or over the Sustenpass runs up to Innertkirchen.

    1981 was the building shortly before the total decay. There were still three exterior walls and a holey roof. the house has been restored through a complete renovation. The interior was convenient, comfortable and easily selected. A large fireplace with convection serves as central heating.

    The house is four-season booking. Winters in Meiental are most very strict, and one to two feet of snow are not uncommon. Especially in this time of year the house exudes its coziness and is felt existentially.
