About this property

Houghton Haus opening the Alps to All

Constructed from sustainably sourced timber and erected using local trades people, the building complements its setting within the Alpine Pearl Village of Mallnitz. The full height atrium window of the open plan living area immerses you in the Mountains and Valleys of the Hohe Tauern National Park all the time affording you the Alpine experience without leaving the door.The fully fitted kitchen gives views up towards the Ankogel mountain range ski arena and Taurantal valley.

All the bedrooms have the versatility to be set up as double or twin rooms. Two bedrooms are located downstairs and have been specifically designed to enable access for anyone. The larger of these two rooms has its own door opening up onto the front patio. With level entry throughout the ground floor, wide doors and modern ensuite wetrooms our ground floor offers ease of access for wheelchair users.

Upstairs sees a further two ensuite bedrooms situated either side of a large mezzanine lounge. This versatile space offers further seating as well as a collection of books and games. Tucked away at either end of the mezzanine level is a secluded snug area and workspace, if you need to check in with the real world whilst your away you can do so in relative peace.

Outside the chalet is a spacious 2 car covered car port with easy access to the front and rear of the building. Further uncovered parking is available to the rear of the chalet. The front patio extends onto a private enclosed garden with large grassed lawn and barbecue area.

We want to share with you our enjoyment of the outdoors, along with our experience working within disability tourism and our belief that everyone should have the opportunity to have these experiences.

Zu empfehlen.
Wir sind von den Vermietern sehr herzlich empfangen worden. Die Vermieter waren jederzeit zu erreichen. Was wirklich super war, wir sind kurz vor Urlaubsantritt über die geltenden Einreisebestimmungen informiert worden. Vielen Dank für den schönen Urlaub wir können das Houghton Haus weiterempfehlen.

Why they chose this property


Wintertime sees Mallnitz become a snowy wonderland with skiing on offer on the Ankogel range and Mollertal glacier. 25 km of cross-country ski trails straight from the village, 3 km long illuminated toboggan run up the Tauerntal, Curling and ice skating at the tauernbad plus 10 km of cleared winter hiking trails, Snowshoeing trails and Ski touring routes.

In the summertime take a walk along one (or all) of the canyons within the area. Straight from Mallnitz you can access the Rabbish shluct following the course of the Rabbish river down the mountainside towards our neighbouring village of Obervellach. A short drive away you can join the Groppenstein, Ragga or Barbarossa shluct all with their impressive walkways, waterfalls and water carved rock canyons.

What we love for all the family (suitable for wheelchairs and pushchairs)

What makes this property unique

We have more to offer than a chalet and bed for the night. From the moment the idea was born we designed the building with accessibility in mind with wider doors, open plan living and ramp access to the building, see our accessibility page for more.
