Alte Post
No roads, no cars – Quinten is only reachable by foot or boat. Historic post house right at the harbour, Walensee in front. One of those places that feels like it shouldn't still exist.

Who is it for
Anyone who wants to genuinely switch off – there's no driving in or out.
Couples or small groups (up to 5) who don't need much beyond a view and a good walk.
People drawn to the Walensee region who want a base that's more interesting than a regular holiday flat.
Good to know
Arrive by boat from Murg or Unterterzen – half-hourly service, park there.
Famous for its unusually mild microclimate, but it's still an old house: bring warm layers in winter.
Two restaurants in the village, both within a few minutes walk.
Popular in summer – the village can get busy during peak weeks.
What stood out
The view from the garden terrace. Walensee, the harbour, mountains – it doesn't disappoint once, let alone all week.
