Traditional Stone House with Large Terrace & Mountain Views
Peaceful Location, Highest Point of Baiardo Village (1000m ASL) Surrounded by Unspoilt Nature
Sleeps 2 (1 Bedroom)
|
|
Our eleven houses in Baiardo vary in size from House 3 (ideal for a couple) to House 7 (sleeps seven). Each house is unique and has its own special features, whether that be a roof terrace or balcony, an open fire or wood stove, a sleeping loft or cave bedroom - they all have fantastic views. They have been simply and beautifully restored with beams, white-washed walls and terracotta tiled floors. On the mountain side of Houses 1-7, there is a large grassy terrace with a smaller stone terrace above it. This is the perfect place to enjoy lunch al fresco, relax in peace, soak up the sun and admire the mountain views and in the distance the French Alps and the Mediterranean Sea. Come here to relax, revitalize or be inspired. Take a break from the noise and crowds and live at your own pace in a very real part of Italy that the tour guides and the text books have over-looked.
