Sea containers travel long distances, sometimes through wild and dangerous waters. These have brought the waves to us in their safe harbor in the Vogtland. In the past, they brought goods from A to B over long distances and protected them from external influences with their steel construction. Perhaps they were also transported over the nearby Göltzschtalbrücke, the largest brick bridge in the world and a landmark of the Vogtland. In any case, then as now, when the doors of the containers open, something valuable comes to light - today it is a great view of Schöneck, where instruments have been made since the 17th century. The city belongs to the so-called "Musikwinkel", which is protected by UNESCO as an intangible cultural heritage.
The cozy but modern interior plays first fiddle in our containers, because we have redesigned them into comfortable smart homes. With us, the style of industrial chic inside fits together with the natural idyll outside. Let the container be your safe oasis of calm, your cozy base camp in the middle of the vital bike and ski world of Schöneck. It also protects you from external influences if you want. If you want, you can also get in direct contact with nature outside on the terrace. The freely visible starry sky is either your cinema for entertainment or your adult mobile phone for relaxing.
Even during the day you can experience the full load of nature here. The large windows of the container let so much green and sunlight into the bed that you always have the feeling of being outside. After you have plunged into sporting activities on the slope and explored the area, in the evening at sunset you forget the time with the view of Schöneck and are happy that you came here. Go up to us to shut down.
All three container lofts offer a wonderful view down into the valley and over the Vogtland. Thanks to the renewable or recycled materials used in the interior - such as wood, waste wood or recycled daily newspapers - you have not only satisfied your environmental awareness, but you also immediately feel at home. The cozy dining area with a large window front invites you to spend a relaxed evening in a hut.
The Container Loft “Drop” offers space for up to 4 people and can be used with a 2 x 2 person bunk bed or with two double beds. In “Flow” and “Flat” there are sleeping places - either 1x double bed or 1x bunk bed - for 2 people each. We provide bed linen in all three lodges.
The lodges are “smart homes”, which means that the access, the heating (including the infrared ceiling heating) and the light can be controlled centrally and digitally via an iPad on the wall. Depending on the mood, the light can also be set to the desired color, so that you can create the desired mood in the house yourself.
The bathrooms are equipped with a shower, a washbasin and a toilet. You will also find fresh towels and toiletries here.
You will find free WiFi everywhere in and around the houses, but right outside the front door there is also a large terrace with a panorama and the ski & amp; Bike world of Schöneck.
The kitchen of the Container Loft "Drop" offers extensive and modern equipment in a compact space: oven, induction hob, dishwasher, refrigerator, toaster and coffee maker. In “Flow” and “Flat” you will find a refrigerator, toaster, induction hotplate, coffee maker and microwave.
In addition, you can celebrate a barbecue on the terrace of all three lofts, we will provide you with the grill. So you have all the options here to get creative yourself, to snack or simply to chill the well-deserved evening beer. Groceries to fill the fridge can be found in the vicinity for shopping.
In a pinch, or if you just don't feel like looking after the food yourself, there are three bars within a radius of about one kilometer where you can recharge your batteries without having to cook yourself.
If required, we also offer a bread and beverage service for an additional charge, just let us know.
Boredom is a word that cannot be used in connection with the BERGHEIM Container Lofts, because it never gets boring here. Nature lovers and sports enthusiasts in particular get their money's worth in the mountainous surroundings.
There is the viewing rock "Alter Söll", on which a castle once stood and which marks the origin of the town of Schöneck. Today nothing can be seen of the castle, but you can still see a lot from the rock, because from a height of 700 meters you have a view of the entire Vogtland.
If you want to be active beyond the view of the natural surroundings and the stars, you don't have far, because in the immediate vicinity of the Container Lofts you will find a lot that will bring relaxation and fun to your stay: various courses and trails for bikers, ski slopes with ski bar and chair lift, indoor swimming pool, wellness oasis and tennis court. And if you're a fan of vertical challenges, secure a climbing & amp; Boulder wall (approx. 600m away), an urban climbing rock (900m away) or the climbing forest in Schöneck your adrenaline level like an HMS.
If necessary, we organize ski or bike courses as well as various leisure activities such as sport climbing, hiking or generally experiencing nature, just talk to us about it.
What’s there for children?
The children can also let out their energy here in the open air, or alternatively recharge their batteries. If not romping about somewhere in front of the door ON the slope, then maybe enjoying the view in the chairlift ABOVE the slope. And a playground is just 250 meters away.
There are also other opportunities to be out and about in the area, for example while riding horses. Or in winter, when no snowman is being built or no snowball fight is going on, by sledge. But there are also bike routes that are suitable for children. And if you want to take the curves like in the film "Cool Runnings" instead of a bike: the nearby summer toboggan run in Mühleithen offers 11 curves over an 800 meter stretch.
Less than 10 km away is an indoor playground, the Grünbach children's playhouse. Here, regardless of the weather, you can climb on the play equipment, play with figures on the floor or - from 5 years - get your children's driving license in the child-safe play mobile.
If necessary, we also provide board games if the youngsters prefer to stay in the TinyHaus or if the weather wants it that way.
