Hidden behind the castle-shaped exterior of the Ansitz Steinbock in the heart of Villandro lie Gothic parlours, unique luxury suites, and a restaurant in a league of its own. Once a courthouse, then a guesthouse, the 15th-century residence has been a vibrant part of village culture for generations. The picturesque building boasts an alcove tower, a cobbled courtyard – and a lot of soul.
