Holidays on a historic farm in Fiè allo Sciliar
The historical farm Gfinkerhof looks back on a long history, which began when it was first mentioned in the 14th century. Once the farm was known by the names “Gufing” or “Confink”. Over the centuries, the farm Gfinkerhof was transferred by inheritance and sale to various owners, until in 1942 the grandfather of your hosts rented the farm. He came from a farming family who was resident in Fiè allo Sciliar. In 1974, the father of the Obkircher family took over the lease and since 1986 the farm Gfinkerhof is family-owned. Gerhard and Sabine took over the farm in 2003 from her father and ever since managed it as a dairy farm.

Wir waren im August eine Woche bei Familie Obkircher auf dem Gfinkerhof. Es war ein absoluter Traumurlaub. Die Familie Obkircher ist überaus herzlich und hilfsbereit. Frau Obkircher stand jederzeit mit Rat und Tat zur Seite. Uns hatte vor allem die persönliche Atmosphäre auf dem Hof gefallen. Man hatte sofort das Gefühl man gehöre zur Familie. Die Kinder durften im Stall mithelfen und beim Melken zusehen. Wir waren in der Ferienwohnung Mendel, welche äußerst sauber und gepflegt ist. Der Balkon mit Blick auf Bozen und ein Teil der Rosengarten war traumhaft schön. Der Brötchenservice war ebenfalls toll und auf Wunsch frische Milch vom Hof. Die Gastfreundschaft der Familie ging über das " gewohnte" Maß hinaus. Wir werden diesen Urlaub noch lange in toller Erinnerung behalten. Wir werden sicherlich mal wieder auf dem Gfinkerhof Urlaub machen.
