If you want to heat it more often, you pay CHF 15.00. Please leave bath additives at home. Guest access You can use the whole alpine pasture. The stable and hayloft have their purpose. Other things to note The economical and careful use of water and electricity is very important to us and must be, as the resources are finite. If you want or need to shower frequently, you are really much better off in a property with a water connection. You can hear the highway that leads through the middle of the Grisons Rhine Valley. However, it is not noise per se, but a kind of "background noise", which can be perceived differently depending on the vegetation level, wind direction, temperature and weather.
