It’s the perfect spot in the Frankenwald to escape the hustle and bustle of city life. Chalet Alba is the ideal starting point for hikes in the Frankenwald. The spa town of Bad Steben is just a 5-minute drive away. The Rennsteig trailhead is also only 5 minutes away.

High-quality furnishings await you in this 84-square-meter space. Sustainable materials were used for the colors and flooring.

Host a game night at the large dining table—the comfortable chairs make it easy to stay for hours (games provided).

The TV with soundbar can be viewed from various angles thanks to its rolling stand.

Enjoy a unique experience sipping a glass of wine or a cocktail at our bar.

Cook together in the spacious and fully equipped kitchen. (Oven, ceramic cooktop, microwave, bread slicer, coffee maker, electric kettle, toaster, dishwasher, and refrigerator, as well as a small freezer).

The bathroom has been completely renovated and features a shower, toilet, and sink.

A washing machine with laundry detergent is available in the storage room. You can dry your laundry on the rotary clothesline in the garden.

The two bedrooms are located on the upper level of the house (the “Cozy Nook” with a double bed measuring 200x180 cm and the “Moon Bedroom” (the “moon,” in the form of a ceiling light, will delight your children) with two single beds, each measuring 190x90 cm). Both rooms feature a large built-in closet. The windows can be darkened with blinds.

From the living room, you have direct access to the furnished patio, which features a table with four chairs and a comfortable lounge chair. Another lounge area with a table is located on the garden terrace. The unfenced garden covers approximately 300 square meters—so you can choose between sun and shade.

Free Wi-Fi
Please note that smoking is permitted only outside the house.

We look forward to welcoming you as our guests.

The newly redesigned swimming lake is within walking distance. Feel free to use our on-site handcart to get there. You can take a refreshing dip in the lake at any time. Other sports activities (table tennis, basketball, or soccer) are available, as well as a children’s playground.
