La Residenza dello Scoiattolo Reviews

Description

La Residenza dello Scoiattolo is in the middle of the Anzasca Valley, little more than 10km from Macugnaga, on the slopes of Monte Rosa. Perfect for skiers in winter and for mountain walkers (or simply people loving nature) in summer, this is a lovely part of the world, where Italy meets Switzerland.

The B&B provides friendly, comfortable accommodation. Set away from other houses, the lodge is nonetheless close to the village, providing a winning mix of privacy and convenience. The owners are on hand to help with any questions or needs, and the accommodation provides a charming, relaxing and very beautiful holiday base in Italy.

The two-storey villa sits within its own garden, enveloped by a huge wisteria, and with the woods nearby. The first floor is entirely given over to the Bed & Breakfast: there are 2 bedrooms, 1 double room with a wide terrace with a view on Monte Rosa, and 1 single room. In addition, there is a bathroom exclusively for the use of the B&B, a passage room and a second, wider solarium terrace at the back of the house.

A generous and varied Continental Breakfast is served downstairs each morning, by the fireplace in the sitting room. On this floor you will find the kitchen and a second bathroom with shower to be shared with the owners. The house has a distinctly Alpine feel, with the wood cladding of the building complemented by wooden walls, floors and ceilings, with wooden beams to complete the mountain ambience. The owners speak French and English.

Location and Contact

Location

• Anzasca Valley is located in direction of the east slope of wonderful Monte Rosa massif, the widest and highest in the Alps, an immense cathedral of ice and rocks, getting up to mt. 4,635 high. Ideal place for walkers and climbers and for winter sports, such as alpine and cross country skiing, but also for skating on ice and other less traditional sports such as telemark skiing, snowboarding or eliskiing.
• A feature of the place is the Walser Community, still keeping an ancient culture and language alive since ages. Their origin is German and is still well preserved by the inhabitants of Macugnaga with particular care and affection.
• Worthing visiting in the Valley, you can find an ancient Lime tree (dating back to XIII Century) at Staffa (a part of Macugnaga) and the Gold Mine of la Guia at Borca (also part of Macugnaga). The mine is no longer used, but it has been the greatest in Italy and you can visit it helped by a guide.
• In certain periods of the year, in 2 places of the Valley, Bannio Anzino(above Pontegrande)and Calasca. it is possible to see the Traditional Soldiers Parade, not real soldiers repeating ancient traditions since XVII° Century, accompanied by band concerts, showing how good the inhabitants are in various fields including music and folklor
