Hotel Ansitz Rungghof, Italy

• Scenic location: A stone’s throw from the South Tyrolean wine route, an authentic country manor sits embraced by vineyards - this is Hotel Ansitz Rungghof. Perched on a sunny plateau at 435 metres above sea level, this sublime spot offers sweeping views of the surrounding mountains, as well as plenty of alpine charm within. A classic façade hides cosy, rustic interiors, making this serene retreat a real home from home.

• Culinary creations: Start your day with a scrumptious breakfast, with both a bountiful buffet selection and à la carte choices on offer. The bistro is on hand for casual gourmet bites, and fabulous four-course dinners await at the hotel’s innovative restaurant. Fresh, regional ingredients (some straight from the hotel’s own herb garden) are whipped up into delicious meals that blend alpine tradition with Mediterranean flavour.

• Rest and wellness: When the sun is shining, the heated outdoor pool beckons; swim some leisurely laps or lounge on a poolside sunbed, shaded by olive trees. Head inside to make the most of the Finnish and organic saunas, and let worries drift away in the steam. The panoramic gym is perfect for keeping up with your workouts, or if you prefer to kick back, hit the relaxation room for unrivalled peace and tranquillity.
