The Villa
Spanning 120 square metres across two thoughtfully designed levels, this contemporary log chalet showcases the finest in sustainable architecture.

The seasonal swimming pool (available May 15 to September 30) provides refreshing relief during warmer months, while the extensive terraces and balconies offer multiple spots for outdoor dining and relaxation. The property’s commitment to sustainability shines through its solar panel system, which provides largely self-sufficient energy, and the small on-site forest that supplies firewood for the cosy evenings by the fire.
