Berghoferin

Berghoferin’s story begins in the 1960s, when this mountainside house was first built high above the Trento valley, one of the earliest retreats in South Tyrol’s quiet high meadows.

Long before the Dolomites became one of Europe’s most travelled mountain destinations, this corner of Redagno remained almost lost in time, shaped by forests, pastureland and the slow rituals of Alpine life.

Reimagined in 2022, the house was transformed into an intimate thirteen-suite hideaway with a deliberate limit of just twenty six guests at any one time. Swiss pine floors, 15th century stübli panelling, Joseph Frank textiles, antique finds and beautifully layered objects give the feeling of a passionately curated private estate rather than a hotel. Today, books, collected stories, local furniture and sunlit terraces add warmth without disturbing the spirit of the original lodge.

At Berghoferin, preservation begins with thoughtful adaptation. The original 1960s mountain lodge has been carefully reimagined rather than replaced, retaining its Alpine bones while honouring South Tyrol’s craft traditions through Swiss pine, local furniture, historic stübli panelling and collected regional objects.

Set in the quiet hamlet of Redagno, the house protects the slower rural character of this high meadow landscape, far removed from the overvisited corners of the Dolomites. Local wines, seasonal mountain produce and South Tyrolean craftsmanship keep cultural and economic value rooted in place, while the deliberately small scale of just thirteen suites preserves a rare sense of calm.
