Gignod Vacation Rental

Terra Alpina is a 19th century farmhouse that was completely rebuilt in 2007-2008 and converted into six luxury apartments. The apartments are 60 m2 - 70 m2 each and all feature excellent bathrooms (many with en-suite) and kitchens. All apartments have either a balcony or a small private garden, together with shared access to a communal garden of 1.5 acres. Even by the standards of the Alps, the views are spectacular. Terra Alpina is located above the village of Gignod, 15 minutes drive from the city of Aosta in the direction of Switzerland. In winter, it is convenient for the major ski resorts of Pila (20 minutes), Courmayeur and La Thuile (45 minutes) and Cervina, Monte Rosa and Verbier (all under one hour). In summer, it is surrounded by beautiful walking country (the major hiking route from western Italy to Switzerland passes 300 metres from Terra Alpina), it is two kilometres from the area's only 18 hole golf club and many other outdoor activities are close by.

This is a ground-floor flat with direct access to a small garden which overlooks the valley, but it is slightly smaller than Flat 5. There is a large kitchen/lounge/dining area with a sofabed, which has direct access to the garden from a full height glass door, which also means the lounge area benefits from excellent natural light. The lounge has a wood-burning stove in addition to the central heating. There is a double bedroom with a double wardrobe, plus a smaller bedroom with two bunk beds. The bathroom is spacious and luxurious, while the kitchen is very well equipped.
