a place to reconnect
On the edge of a small Italian mountain village, this simple cabin offers easy access to walks, nature, views - and also Milan for a day trip!
Even before 2020 (Covid), there was a growing realisation that taking time out, going to a place to recharge or “reconnect” - whatever that means for each of us - was increasingly important for good mental health and general wellbeing. Self-led retreats have became vogue as there has been both an increasing awareness of, and an honesty about, work-related stress and burnout. The “Great Resignation” has become the “Great Realignment” as people seek to re-prioritise and reassess a work life balance.
To help you reconnect, take time out, or simply to go walking in the mountains, A Little Cabin in the Alps is ready and waiting! Of course, if you’re getting tired of reconnecting(!), within half an hour’s drive you can enjoy refined restaurants, clothes shops and history in the nearby city of Biella. Central Milan is an hour and a half away (similar for historic Turin) and as well as driving, can be accessed easily by train from Biella.
Pay As You Can: Some of those who will use the cabin are on good salaries. Others not. Either way it doesn’t matter as the idea is that everyone who stays, contributes to the costs of maintaining A Little Cabin in the Alps as they can and are able, in the knowledge that everyone benefits and sees a return on their “investment”.

We had a brilliant time in Rosazza and each of us wanted to say a big THANK YOU for your kindness in offering the cabin. We thought the cabin and the village were both wonderful. We explored the village and swam in the pool below the helipad and then had a delicious lunch at the restaurant by the playground. We walked straight up through the woods behind the cabin to the refuge, had lunch with Alberto, and then descended via Desate.

The cabin was a perfect place to wind down after a very busy summer season. So peaceful and beautiful. I was really blown away by it. I'm sure I'll have another opprtunity to stay in the future.
