The old farmhouse Mair am Ort existed already back in the 15th century and is simply part and parcel of the history of Partschins. That's why we never wanted to undergo wholesale changes or tear the house down. Our father, Ubald Schiefer, my father in law, started in the 60's with thoughts of transforming the farmhouse into a guesthouse. Back then, it was the first house in the village with shower and toilet facilities in all rooms. For several years my parents in law ran the place, lots of guests came and went. Then the house was let out for several years, until I finally came onto the scene.
Being from an old farm, Sittnerhof in Meran and having grown up as a hotelier's daughter and with more than 20 years of successful experience in the fashion industry, it brought me back to my roots. The love of nature and tradition made me make the move to it.
My husband Martin inherited the farmhouse, I had a lot of ideas and a feeling for design and a stylish way of life, so together we put some new life back into Mair am Ort giving a new shine and honest hospitality. Martin is our "big boss" and runs our restaurant BUSS'L & more on the village square in Parcines together with our son Andreas, who is a graduate of the hotel management school. Our daughter Claudia now manages the hotel reception desk after successful years in the fashion industry. We now have 4 small grandchildren, so the future of the Mairam Ort living is secure. My whole passion is being a good hostess. Every day we enjoy together looking after our guests personally and giving them a unique holiday in South Tyrol. The Mair am Ort has become the centre of our lives.
The tradition continues!
