With mountain views, Greiterhof - Partschins is set in Parcines and has a restaurant, room service, bar, garden, children's playground and sun terrace.
"It is a 15 minute drive up a series of switchbacks from Partschins but that trade-off is outweighed by the stunning view over Algund, Meran and beyond and the incomparable hospitality of the Pircher family.
We had one of the suites and it was fantastic to stagger out on to the balcony to soak up the morning Suedtirol rays. And then there was sunset. And finally, by night you can watch the lights in the valley below twinkle like an inverted sky.
The bathrooms were modern and spotless. Whoever selected the bathroom furnishings obviously had good taste. Towels were fluffier than a Labrador puppy.
There is no TV in the room but my wife appreciated me talking to her for once, so it s a highly recommended stay to re-connect with your loved one!
Breakfast was enjoyable, particularly the boiled eggs (6 minutes), the homemade honey, jams and preserves. A range of cold meats and cheeses was also offered in addition to a varied basket of breads.
Great walks nearby. We managed to hike up to the seven Spronser Seen lakes above Greiterhof, via the Hochganghaus and Hochgangsharte. When we explained our intentions at breakfast, Mrs Pircher was slightly concerned but armed with her healthy and filling breakfast and some of her homemade schnaps, we looped around the seven lakes and back to Greiterhof for an evening meal. Mrs Pircher had the local mountain rescue team on standby and she was overjoyed when we returned 8 hours later; bloodied, broken and with a pronounced limp.
Evening meals are simple and fresh, with gulasch, lamb stews, eggs based dishes, salads etc and were perfect after a long walk. All washed down with some red wine, beer and the ubiquitous schnaps.
There are also other food options in the area, although most of these would involve a drive back down the hill – particularly the wonderful Schnalshuberhof in Oberplars.
Thank you very much for a wonderful stay and we will hopefully see you again in the future."
