Splendid villa of the end of 800, surrounded by majestic beech trees. The old house, all in stone and wood, is on 3 floors, with numerous bedrooms with balconies, antique kitchen with stove, sitting area with fireplace. But looking up and looking around you can appreciate the true and unique beauty of this place: the ceilings are all original and frescoed with wonderful floral decorations and cheerful blue swallows that call the spring. Looking out from the balconies, you can enjoy the wonderful panorama of the Levanne with their glacier (as long as there is) ... When the wind blows among the beeches, sit on the edge of the door or lie down in the hammock, close your eyes and let yourself be lulled: you will feel the scent of these ancient places, so unique and rare. A spacious garden, with hydrangeas and azaleas, surrounds the house making it perfect for children too.

Villa Mattirolo ist einmalig, perfekt um sich zu entspannen.
Der Alimentari in Pialpetta hat alles für den täglichen Bedarf.
Die Berge in der Umgebung bieten zahlreiche Wandermöglichkeiten.
Je waant je terug in de tijd, in deze oude mooie villa. Prima verzorgd, we waren met 5 18+ jongens en iedereen had de ruimte. Bar, restaurants en alimentari op loopafstand plus prachtige wandelomgeving.
Soggiorno delizioso in una villa d’altri tempi. Bellissimo giardino ed atmosfera in una zona ricca di escursioni e di verde. La pulizia avrebbe potuto essere più accurata, soprattutto in cucina, in cui il padellame è davvero datato.Peccato la mancanza di legna per il barbecue o il camino e la scarsa copertura del wi-fy. Bella residenza se accompagnati da sole e bel tempo, piuttosto faticosa con pioggia ed umidità.
Pialpetta ,the hamlet where this house is located is an ideal destination if you are looking for a" get way from it all" holiday : the one shop covers four hamlets & the one road along the valley, which is flanked by a fast flowing river, ends in a wall of impressive mountain peaks, less than 4 kms after the house.
The location is a haven for walkers. There are a number of well signposted paths leading from Pilapetta into the mountains on both sides of the river, adapted to different levels of walkers /hikers-: from novices & families to experts .
The area is relatively unknown & unspoilt & has some beautiful walks & even in August we rarely met other walkers.
And the house ? What you are getting is exactly as it says in Elisabetta's description : you are getting the (rare) opportunity to stay in a house that has stayed in the same family since it was built in the late 19th century, with many of the original features still in place ..painted ceilings ...stone floors, etc . As a result, the house- like a favourite aunt- has its very own idiosyncracies & it is for you to adapt to the house ..it is part of the charm of having the opportunity of staying in such a unique house : in our case we loved staying there !!!
Finally the owner , the housekeeper & her daughter could not have been more helpful : they even made themselves available via social media during our stay which enabled us to plan a day out to Turin in August ..which apparently is not an easy thing to do ! Thank you again for everything !!!!!!!!!

La casa respira tutta l'atmosfera del suo grande passato. Ottimo soggiorno !
La casa è di grande fascino per chi è consapevole di abitare una vecchia villa. Gli ambienti sono splendidi e ben distribuiti, gli spazi esterni curati e ben fruibili, la posizione ottima per belle passeggiate nella natura.
Difetti: la casa è piuttosto polverosa e questo potrebbe causare problemi a chi soffre di allergie. La dotazione di base è esseniale. Per il resto tutto bene, compresa l'accoglienza calorosa e cordiale.
