Where the wood remembers – stay at the old schoolhouse
The large windows of the former classroom let plenty of light into the spacious living room. Meals are shared, laughter is heard, and games are played at the big dining table. The built-in cupboard holds many toys and books waiting to be discovered.
Stay where history meets warmth – in the heart of Toggenburg.
This lovingly furnished 6-room apartment, situated on the first floor of our 200-year-old wooden house, offers a restful and homely atmosphere in the picturesque Toggenburg region. With original timber walls and strip-wood floors, the space radiates charm and comfort. It’s fully equipped for both short visits and longer stays – ideal for family holidays, creative retreats, or working sabbaticals.
Outside, a terraced garden dotted with fruit trees invites slow afternoons in the sun. The house stands in the historic center of Ebnat-Kappel, just steps from the town’s storied main street.

The space
This spacious apartment is filled with natural light and character. The open-plan living room with its kitchen nook and dining table creates a welcoming hub for slow mornings and long conversations. A cozy reading chair looks out to the mountains.
Next door, a projector and screen turn the second lounge into a private cinema – perfect for quiet movie nights on the plush sofa.

A note from the host
We want you to feel at ease here. Occasionally, you may hear us upstairs – the sound of footsteps on creaky old wooden floors is part of the charm (or a quirk, depending on how you see it). We believe in transparency so you can choose the place that suits you best.
All are welcome here – no matter your story. We’re grateful for openness, tolerance, and moments of true connection.
