Les points forts : Propreté, arrivée, communication, emplacement et exactitude de l’annonce
"Yesterday" ..today !"
Pialpetta ,the hamlet where this house is located is an ideal destination if you are looking for a" get way from it all" holiday : the one shop covers four hamlets & the one road along the valley, which is flanked by a fast flowing river, ends in a wall of impressive mountain peaks, less than 4 kms after the house.
The location is a haven for walkers. There are a number of well signposted paths leading from Pilapetta into the mountains on both sides of the river, adapted to different levels of walkers /hikers-: from novices & families to experts .
The area is relatively unknown & unspoilt & has some beautiful walks & even in August we rarely met other walkers.
And the house ? What you are getting is exactly as it says in Elisabetta's description : you are getting the (rare) opportunity to stay in a house that has stayed in the same family since it was built in the late 19th century, with many of the original features still in place ..painted ceilings ...stone floors, etc . As a result, the house- like a favourite aunt- has its very own idiosyncracies & it is for you to adapt to the house ..it is part of the charm of having the opportunity of staying in such a unique house : in our case we loved staying there !!!
Finally the owner , the housekeeper & her daughter could not have been more helpful : they even made themselves available via social media during our stay which enabled us to plan a day out to Turin in August ..which apparently is not an easy thing to do ! Thank you again for everything !!!!!!!!!
