The historic Villa Lageder is located in the South Tyrolean mountain village of Sarnthein/Sarentino in the Sarntal Valley (17 km north of Bolzano) at an elevation of nearly 1,000 m. It was built in 1899 on old foundations and completely and luxuriously renovated from 2004 to 2006. The ski area is 15 minutes away. Shuttle bus to the ski area.
The 5 apartments can also be booked for larger groups and family gatherings.
Our property includes a large garden with mature trees, where our guests are warmly welcome. It offers seating and lounging areas on various levels, as well as a barbecue area.
For relaxation, there is a new wellness area with a sauna and Jacuzzi for our guests.
There is a connection between Villa Lageder and the Alois Lageder Winery, whose premium wines are exported all over the world. We would be happy to organise a wine tasting and guided tour for you.
History of Villa Lageder: My grandfather Alois purchased this villa in 1915 for his family as a summer retreat. It seemed well-suited for this purpose, as he needed plenty of space for his seven children; it had a large garden, a wine cellar, and enough room in the barn for a carriage and horses. Back then, the journey to the Sarntal was made by carriage—a long ride along the old road down through the wild and romantic Talfer Gorge. Since that time, the villa has served as a summer home for generations of our family. I’m glad that, thanks to a careful renovation, we were able to preserve some of the old features: tiled stoves, cast-iron stoves, old wooden ceilings, vaulted ceilings, painted farmhouse chests, the simple softwood furniture, and other everyday objects from that era. Until the late 1940s, you still had to fetch water from the large wooden trough in front of the house, which was fed by a private spring—the spring is still there! I hope I’ve piqued your curiosity!
