ArchitectureThe large wooden house has clear lines and yet somehow seems moved. It is partly on pillars and only at second glance is the special shape recognizable. The roof ridge is twisted in itself, which results in unexpected shapes and lines from the outside and inside. The 80 sqm salotto flows smoothly into the terrace when the patio door is completely open. Even if the huge glass doors are closed, the room is directly connected to the surrounding nature. The house is largely built from natural and regional materials. Wood, cement and iron would have to be completely recyclable. It also has energy class A thanks to excellent insulation.

FoodFor breakfast, host Ulla presents eggs from her own chickens, fruits and vegetables from her own garden and other ecological and regional products in La Mugletta. Her specialty is homemade cakes, including vegan and gluten-free varieties. In general, every guest is asked about food allergies or intolerances about a week before arrival, so that Ulla can specifically address this when planning their meal.

SocialThe operators of La Mugletta organize concerts, wine tastings or other events at irregular intervals. Some of the proceeds from this benefit a non-profit organization.

EnvironmentAll possible food waste gets chickens and / or donkeys to eat. The rest, like other waste, is strictly separated and recycled. For heating and hot water and the often necessary cooling of the house in Italy, fossil fuels are dispensed with and geothermal energy is used instead. Thanks to triple-glazed windows, only economical consumption is required. The electrical appliances in the kitchen are also as energy-saving as possible. The rainwater is collected to water the organic vegetable and orchard. And ecological cleaning agents and a steam cleaner are used throughout for disinfection. A photovoltaic system is still being planned to become self-sufficient in terms of energy. La Mugletta hosts information and organization events to protect the toads that migrate twice a year in the area.

Well-BeingIn addition to the lush garden with resting places and the cozy salotto with fireplace for relaxation, there is also a steam room including a relaxation room on La Mugletta. If desired, a Shiatsu treatment can also be booked with an external expert. Hostess Ulla, on the other hand, is an expert in creative and contemplative work with the “earth”, the potter. It offers ceramic courses or lessons for interested guests.
