Further details for this vacation house rental in Montjovet, Italy

Things to see and do: The Aosta Valley was a Roman route through the alps. There are Roman remains in Aosta along with a beautiful cathedral and excellent shops. Mediaeval castles line the valley many of which can be visited. Turin is well worth a visit for its architecture and designer shops. Further afield but in easy reach are Lake Maggiore with its cable car and Borromean islands and Lake Como, the capital of the silk industry.

Eating and Drinking: The Aosta Valley has a tradition of good food and excellent wine. There are several restaurants nearby offering specialities from a simple pizza to haute cuisine at excellent value for money. Look out for venison, wild boar, local cheeses and porcini mushrooms. Terraced vineyards adorn the valley and some cellars can be visited. A little to the south, in Piedmonte, are the villages of Barolo, Barbaresco and Alba with superb restaurants, wine cellars and scenery

Activities: Grand Hoel is surrounded by lanes and mule tracks with extensive marked walks from the door. Wildlife and flowers are abundant. Mont Avic National Park has excellent walks and glacial lakes. Ski resorts such as Champoluc and Cervinia (The Matterhorn) have ski lifts operating in high season and guides for more difficult glacier climbs. Mountain huts are open for overnight stays. White water rafting 50 minutes away at Pre St Didier. Open air pool at St Vincent 15 minutes away. Golf at Gressoney.

Imagine wakingup to gorgeous surroundings of snow covered mountains, the skiing was great and the surrounding area is beautiful and peaceful.
Great for picincs in amazing surroundings, walks - you name it.
Thanks again to Jean for a wonderful, comfortable and memorable visit.
The house itself is just like you imagine a mountain hideaway to be, cosy and comfortable with everything one could possibly need.

Stay in paradise

Lefrog england
Review Submitted: March 22, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
We just returned from a wonderful week at "La Casacata". We skied every day in nearby Champoluc, returned in time for an afternoon walk in the stunning coutryside around the house.. followed by an aperitif on the sunny terrace and a cosy evening by the log fire. We also had some fabulous meals in local restaurants.

Thanks for your warm and friendly welcome Jean, we loved the extra little touches which made us really feel at home. We feel rested and rejuvenated after our stay in "paradise".
