special features
Michael, our jack-of-all-trades and passionate host, takes care of the farm, distils our popular fine brandy, keeps the farm bar and accounts running smoothly – and has the right solution for every problem. Repairs? No problem.
Ines, Michael's wife, is the friendly face at reception and in the back office. She looks after the pets, takes care of employees, organises everything to do with the website and portals – and is the proud mother of her daughter Helena.
Helena already helps out diligently on the farm, is everywhere on the farm and loves to make children's eyes light up.
Barbara, Michael's mum, lovingly conjures up a dream of flowers and gardens around the house and helps out every day with breakfast for our guests.
Hans, Michael's dad, makes sure that everything around the farm is clean, well-maintained and in good working order – and also lends a hand with the farming.
spring water
spring water
Here, you can enjoy water in its purest form: fresh spring water flows from every tap, sourced directly from the mountain pasture behind the Brunn. Crystal clear, natural and pure – without long transport routes or additives.
Our farm has been supplied by this spring for generations. It not only provides us with particularly tasty drinking water, but also gives us the good feeling of bringing a piece of unadulterated nature into our home every day. A little piece of the mountains – right in your glass.
Sustainable energy
Sustainable energy
WWe heat with the power of nature – clean, regional and environmentally friendly!
At our holiday farm, we have been relying on a 100% sustainable and regional energy supply for many years – completely without oil. Back in 2001, we switched to a modern wood chip plant that runs on wood from our own forest. This not only heats our houses, but also produces hot water – efficiently, cleanly and CO₂-neutrally.
A special dust filter also ensures particularly good exhaust gas values. Since 2014/15, a solar thermal system has been supporting our heating system. It is intelligently controlled and distributes the available energy optimally. This allows us to minimise heat loss and use every resource particularly sparingly.
For our electricity supply, we rely on a large photovoltaic system, which allows us to generate most of our energy ourselves. We even produce more than we consume – surplus electricity is fed into the grid.
Our goal: Future-oriented, sustainable management – for our guests, our family and for nature at Lake Weissensee.
award
Sustainability, regional value creation and genuine quality are close to our hearts – and this is also reflected in the awards we have received over many years.
Our farm has been BIO-certified (BIO Austria) since 1993 and is therefore committed to particularly careful and environmentally friendly farming practices.
We are proud to bear the Austrian Ecolabel and the – two seals of quality that require consistent environmental protection, energy-saving operations and biodegradable cleaning products.
Our breakfast is also 100% certified organic and meets the highest quality standards. In addition, our business has been awarded the Quality Carinthia Seal – a sign of regional authenticity and genuine hospitality.
