  • We've had a great time here. Went to Milan, had a walk through 'old' Biella yesterday and did the 'refugio' Madonna della neva' walk. Rosazza, the walks - what an amazing place you have here!

  • We had a wonderful week here, beautiful mountains, we loved that it was very calm here. And so many bats and fireflies. Thanks for everything.

  • We've had another wonderful week. The surroundings and nature are just beautiful. We hiked together to Rifugio Madonna Della Neve, taking the path above the house on the way there. A stunning reward at the top of the mountain. We also spent a lovely day in Milan. All in all, another great holiday.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Despite the weather, we had an amazing time. We enjoyed cozy moments by the fire on rainy days and lovely hikes when the sun came out. Exploring the little town of Rosazza and meeting such wonderful people made the experience even more special.
