Would you like to start your vacation day with a homemade breakfast? Perhaps with eggs from our flock of hens and freshly milked hay milk from our cows?
Cozy or convivial barbecue evenings in the garden after a strenuous mountain tour or simply sit in the garden and watch the children in the sandpit? Feel at home during a vacation in one of our two vacation apartments.
Hello at the Erath's!
Our listed farm is over 400 years old and is located in Au in the picturesque Bregenzerwald in Vorarlberg. The quiet yet central location is the ideal starting point for a relaxing or active vacation in the mountains.
Your heart beats for mountain biking? In Au-Schoppernau there are countless routes just waiting to be discovered. The more than 40-kilometer-long cycle and walking path along the Bregenzer Ache river runs right past the farm. Thanks to the well-maintained network of hiking trails, hikers can enjoy the unspoiled mountain world with a refreshment stop. You can cool off in the outdoor pools in the area or directly in the cold mountain stream.
Within a 5 to 15 minute walk you can easily reach the stores with daily necessities, restaurants, bank, post office, tourist office, cable car, swimming pool and playgrounds.
With the Bregenzerwald Guest Card, you can use public transport, as well as the region's outdoor swimming pools and cable cars free of charge for stays of three nights or more in summer.

Products sourced directly from our farm:
Our farmyard is farmed by us, the Erath family and has been managed as an agricultural business for generations. We farm 15 ha pasture land and manage a dairy.
15 cows, 8 young animals, 7 chickens, one cat and 3 ducks live on our farm under one roof.
The farm is managed in the traditional method of three-stage grassland farming. This means: In winter at the farm, in early summer in a meadow, in summer on the alp, and in winter back to the meadow. They then return to the valley - home - at the end of September.
Our listed farmhouse in the Bregenzerwald offers a down-to-earth, authentic time-out. In a quiet, central location with flowers and garden, you can arrive, relax and enjoy. Explore nature while hiking or cycling and end the day at the barbecue. Our lovingly furnished apartments combine tradition with openness - a house with history and soul.
