Schloss Englar
"Inspiring refuge from the outside world"
South Tyrol, Italy
The Hotel
A summer morning. The castle reposes on a hilltop, surrounded by terraced gardens, fruit trees and grape vines. Walk along the sunny walls, past lavishly set breakfast tables. A babbling fountain in the courtyard, a few hens. Step inside your room and flop into your canopy bed, ceiling beams of dark wood above your head. Silence, only your heartbeat – something new is about to begin.
