About this property

The House of light: nature end relax in the village of old times

A WONDERFUL CROSS-COUNTRY SKIING AND SNOWRAKETS IN A NATURAL ENVIRONMENT
The house is in the village called Venoz ( which is part of the town of NUS) at 1800 mt of altitude. The village consists of about 20 houses from the XVIII century carefully restaured with typical materials from the valley . Our home was built in 1993, according to the tradition and with local materials.
The closest village with facilities is NUS, 16 km from Venoz and 11 Km from the city of Aosta, which is the main town of the valley, with 50.000 inhabitants. In Aosta you can find all you need: train station, buses that connect the main town with the valleys around it, shopping center, a nice pedestrian area with shops, bars, restaurants and historical monuments, dating back to the Roman Age.
In the village of Venoz there aren’t shops, but in Lignan, the village 1 km below Venoz, where there is the observatory, there is a restaurant, family run, and a tiny shop where you can find food (essential). Nus, 16 Km from Venoz, has food stores, baker’s, pharmacy, post office, bank, and so on…
We strongly recommend you to get all your grocery and food supply in Nus!
The most convenient airports are in Milano Malpensa and Turin. From the airport you can rent a car. The valley of Saint Bartlemy is situated in the centre of Valle d’Aosta and it is easy to reach the Monte Bianco, Monte Rosa, Gran Paradiso, Cervino. From our home you are close to many trails to walk up to 2600 mt, where there is the oratory of Cuney.

This is the house we use for our leisure time, so it has our books, objects and so on and has all facilities like washing machine, oven, dishwasher, gpl heating system (NOT centralized), color tv, HiFi, furniture, rugs, sheets, blankets, towels etc.
The apartment : on the ground floor there is a large kitchen and sitting room, a bathroom with shower and two bedrooms with single beds. Upstairs there is an attic room where there is a double bed (french size _ 140 cm). In one of the two bedrooms there will be stored our personal items. There is a balcony facing south with a beautiful view of the Mount Emilius. We will give you a closet and a dresser for your use. The place is very quiet, it helps relaxing and meditation. Heating is an extra

Tra cielo e terra

La casa è esattamente come da descrizione e fotografie attrezzata con tutto, i proprietari cortesi e premurosi ,sei immerso nella natura e nella tranquillità appena cammini sui sentieri sei inebriato dai profumi incontaminati di piante e fiori trovi marmotte aquile stambecchi e ovviamente mucche all'alpeggio ma la cosa più commovente e il cielo notturno, in nessun altro posto in Italia ho visto uno spettacolo simile ! Da provare per chi ama godere di quel poco di naturale ancora incontaminata.

A star amongst stars

I have loved everything about the house and Vènoz . The good things people say are accurate , the house is cozy, beautiful , well kitted and you feel at home instantly . Guglielmo and Grazia delightful, kind, non intrusive , happy to help. But there is more to it. This place has a real soul and we found ourselves immersed in the power of nature , a magnetic attraction to the balcony that has a magnificent view, the peace and the light during the day and the starts at night , and the wildlife around made a wonderful experience for us . For this we are grateful to the owners, for sharing such a special place with us and we will definitely come back to that magic location . It could have not been better. Really.

Venoz

This is a great location and a wonderful property for anyone looking for a base for walking in the north Val d'Aosta area. Venoz is about 20mins drive up from Nus in a most beautiful setting with perfect views out across the Gran Paradiso NP. The chalet is perfect for two or more (up to 6) and family friendly. The owner is very helpful and friendly and was there to greet us and show us around. We spent the week walking in the mountains and this is a great base for this. The local facilities are few but there are a couple good restaurants nearby including a mountain hut with good food about 2hrs walk. Highly recommend this for a walking base in this area.

Unforgettable

If you want to forget a busy city world, enjoy purity of nature and experience a real Alpine atmosphere you MUST stay in the house. The house is a harmonic addition to the beautiful nature. It has everything you need and you feel a love in each thing you see in there. This is our second stay and we are already dreaming again to come back. Guglielmo and Grazia - owners of the house - will give you a great hospitality and help you if anything is needed. After an active day (you can find great cross country ski paths just 5 min drive from the house) we enjoyed reading books sitting close to a fire place or watching the mountains and stars out of a window. We are so thankful to Guglielmo and Grazia for the unforgettable stay which gives us the energy for the year.

Una estancia inolvidable!

Hemos pasado una semana fabulosa en esta casa preciosa. Todo estaba en perfecto estado, limpio, no faltaba nada y dispuesto de forma que uno podía sentirse a gusto en cada momento. La vista desde el balcón con el panorama de los Álpes absolutamente fenomenal. Muchísmas posibilidades de hacer excursiones y senderos. Y Guglielmo con su simpatía habitual siempre preocupado para que nos faltara de nada. Muchísimas gracias. Muy recomendable. Repetiremos seguro!

petit coin du paradis

Nous avons eu une semaine relaxante a Venoz. Appartement tres bien equipe, tres comfortable et chaleureux. La vue du balcon est ravissante. Le decor change avec le temps! Dommage que nous avons decouvert ce paradis a notre age...... c'est un petit paradis pour revenir plusieurs vacances et jouir du silence, le repos, la nature, les vues de la montagne.... francois et rita

Capodanno in totale relax!!!

Venoz è un luogo eccezionale per chi vuole passare una vacanza di relax immersi nella natura..l'appartamento è perfetto sia per una famiglia che per un gruppo di amici..attrezzatissimo, soprattutto la cucina..la stufa a pellets è comoda e scalda in abbondanza e la balconata con vista panoramica sulla valle non ha prezzo!! Guglielmo è una persona molto disponibile ed ha arredato la casa con qualsiasi cosa possa servire per passare al meglio la vacanza.. Assolutamente consigliato!!!

Location très agreable

Nous avons passé un très bon séjour dans cet appartement où tout est charmant, la décoration, la vue, le propriétaire,... Ca vaut la peine de faire ces km en plus pour dormir dans ce nid douilet, la literie est très confortable. Seul petit bémol, il n y a pas de four micro ondes.

Accogliente e ben attrezzata come da annuncio

Venoz frazione di Nus "The house of light" Posto ideale per chi vuole rigenerarsi e/o ama camminare.La valle è poco turistica. L'appartamento gode di una fantastica vista su prati e boschi; è attrezzato di tutto punto. Vicini di casa simpatici. Guglielmo è una ricca fonte di informazioni ma sa essere anche discreto. Da tenere in considerazione sia per un altro soggiorno sia da consigliare ad amici.
