COTTAGE IN FORMER BARN WATERFALL VIEW

Small quiet and romantic love nest close to the mountains, just outside the woods and surrounded by meadows. Ideal for relaxing stays and an exceptional starting point to enjoy nature and the surrounding landscape beauties. The property offers a room for two people with a French bed, a comfortable bathroom and a small fully equipped kitchenette. The small internal dimensions are compensated by the large garden equipped with a comfort area, BBQ and a very comfortable table under a patio (for exclusive use). There is air conditioning, heating and Smart TV. Sheets and towels are included. Small 4-legged friends are welcome (I ask for a small extra of 25 euros in total to be paid in cash at check in). Furry friends can play in the garden while you prepare the BBQ or sip one of the fresh wines from my cellar. The location is strategic, at the edge of the woods, among meadows and vineyards and at the base of the mountains, surrounded by greenery. The Italo-Swiss cycle path passes right in front of the house, and in a few minutes you reach the breathtaking Acqua Fraggia waterfall. The magical town of Chiavenna is reachable in 5 minutes by car, or 10 by bike as well as the Swiss border. The enchanting Lake Como can be reached in half an hour by car and the iconic Saint Moritz is only 39 km away. The property is suitable for sporty people who love nature, walking, mountain excursions, bike rides, skiing, but also just rest, meditation and escape from the stress of the city.
ATTENTION: the cottage has a steep internal staircase not suitable for elderly people or those with walking problems)

Comfortable little place in a beautiful location
My boyfriend and I were very pleased with this place. The property and the valley in which it is located are absolutely beautiful. The unit itself is pretty tiny but worked for us. Because the unit is tiny, there are steep and narrow stairs to the loft and the bed is only a full size. Maurizio was a very good host and sent us a lot of recommendations for things to do in the area. This place was totally worth it!

Die Leiter
Zunächst das Positive: die Lage und Umgebung ist sehr schön und ruhig, aber ... die Fotos zeigen die Zimmer im extremen Weitwinkel, sodass man die Proportionen nicht sieht. Das schlimmste ist eine Leiter, die zum obenliegenden Schlafraum führt. In deutschen Wohnräumen wäre diese nur zu Abstell- oder Lagerräumen zulässig (wahrscheinlich auch in Italien, der Bau ist sicher von keiner Behörde abgenommen), gerade nachts, wenn man mal zur Toilette muss, ist diese Leiter nur rückwärts herabzusteigen. Ich habe mir beim vorwärts herabgehen eine Verstauchung zugezogen und wir sind deswegen vorzeitig abgereist, nach 3 von 9 Übernachtungen. Die "Küche" ist sehr schmal und bietet keinerlei Arbeits- oder Abstellfläche, Die Kochplatte bietet nur für einen Topf Platz und der Kühlschrank zwischen Leiter und Wand ist am besten auf Knien zu erreichen. Wir haben den Gastgeber auf die für ältere Menschen gefährliche Leiter hingewiesen und auch ein Entgegenkommen wegen der vorzeitigen Abreise erbeten, worauf dieser jedoch nicht einging.
