Starry nights on the farm - sleeping in nature
When the world comes to rest and millions of stars shine in the sky, a very special magic unfolds. Sleeping in the open air is more than just spending the night - it is an intense experience of nature that slows you down and leaves a deep impression.
The silence of the night fills nature, with only the crickets still chirping and a twinkling canopy of stars above you - this is the perfect night in the open air. Whether it's a romantic getaway for two or a private time-out in nature, sleeping under the stars on a Swiss farm is an experience that lasts a long time. Far away from the hustle and bustle of the cities, guests can experience nature up close. We present four charming offers that combine this experience with loving details and warm hospitality.
Where fox and hare say goodnight: "Wiesenlodge" in Schneisingen (AG )

The chic wooden cube offers two sleeping options: Under the open sky on the roof of the lodge to count the stars in fine weather. Underneath, a cozy bedroom offers protection and comfort when it rains. For the perfect start to the day, the hosts serve a lovingly prepared breakfast.

Breakfast with a view of the Säntis: "1001 Stars Hotel" in Urnäsch (AR)
The "1001 Stars Hotel" on the Tiererlebnishof (animal adventure farm) is a particularly natural place to stay: a large double bed mounted on the loading bridge of an old single-axle trailer, plus two chairs and a chest of drawers that also serves as a breakfast table. The cozy outdoor bed is mobile and is set up at the guests' desired location - close to the alpacas, llamas and other animals on the farm. After an unforgettable night in the Appenzell countryside, a delicious breakfast with farm-fresh ingredients is served in bed. By the way: from May to August, the animal adventure farm also regularly offers alpaca yoga in the pasture.

Mini house with a view: "Weidbox" in Kerns (OW)
A small wooden house for a great experience: the "Weidbox" on the Erlebnisbauernhof Weid is located in the middle of the Obwalden mountains with a magnificent panoramic view of Pilatus Stanserhorn and the Sarneraa valley. The roof of the hut can be opened and closed by guests at will. At dusk, a crackling fire in front of the box sets the perfect mood for a night with the best view of the moon and stars, and if you like, you can relax in the barrel sauna or the outdoor tub beforehand.
