Places of tranquillity
For your personal time out
Finally, to have time to read the book that has been waiting for weeks. No appointments, no rush, far away from the daily challenges to find peace and quiet. Daydream, relax, and let go, either alone or with a partner. That’s what holiday moments are for. All the better if certain places are dedicated to this regenerating inactivity, which invites you to surrender to the moment. At Gnollhof, these time-out areas are particularly popular with our guests.
Terrace. Open all year round
A smooth transition from grey slate soil to pale green meadow grass, bathing in the sun from morning to evening and facing southward, sheltered from the wind. This is the terrace close to nature, an absolute favourite. The spruce forest and summer flowers, dolomite rocks and fresh air combine to create a very special aroma. Deep relaxation with a cup of Italian coffee and a piece of homemade apple strudel. That’s why, even back then, guests came up here from the city. And, if it cools down in the evening? Then thick cuddly blankets and fluffy lambskins delay you from retiring into the hotel.
Fireplace room. For true connoisseurs
Every evening, a fire burns in our stone fireplace. Almost like a ritual, the host takes care of its daily rekindling, gradually adding wood and making the fireplace room a popular meeting place. Crackling warmth and flickering light, while outside, the evening shrouds the world in darkness. Sink into soft leather armchairs, gaze into the hypnotising flames at dance, or sit with a magazine, a book, or a glass of homemade wine in your hand. The hotel bar is right next door. A time-out area for connoisseurs.
Panoramic loungers. To meditate and daydream
The gentle rustling of the treetops in your ears, the sun’s rays on your skin. Breathe in deeply and consciously perceive how your breath flows through your body. Those who meditate are calmer, more concentrated, and focused. The good thing about it – you don’t need a specific skill to learn how to do it. The proximity to nature around the Gnollhof invites you to become familiar with this spiritual practice. Handcrafted from larch wood, the weatherproof panoramic loungers are a comfortable way to relax in the middle of the meadow or to simply admire the view.
Forest. Time-out area for your health
Invigorating, fragrant, serene. One of the most beautiful sources of energy lies right next to the hotel. A dense spruce forest huddles against the meadow and the approach to the hotel is lined with its sturdy trees. Set off in the morning and inhale the irresistible freshness of the forest, beneficial in any season, even in winter. Velvety-soft moss, creaking branches, dark earth. You can immerse yourself in the energy of this natural setting on a walk through the forest. Soak in the natural primal energy with all your senses. Just a few minutes of forest bathing can do you a lot of good. Science is also convinced that spending time in the forest helps to prevent diabetes, stress, and high blood pressure.
