An antique farming abode from the 18th-century in the centre of town, characterised by its small spaces, its labyrinth of staircases that open up on airy Loggias where corn cobs and tobacco leaves used to be left to dry, and on bedrooms full of light overlooking the surrounding nature.<\/p>\n

We wanted to respect the structure\u2019s memories by highlighting its original elements. The stone walls, the 1700s redbrick floors and ceilings with chestnut beams, the original arches and colonnades created by Meride\u2019s \u201cPicasass\u201d in the 18th-century have all been restored, as well as the antique well with its hand-carved curved stones and fresh water straight from the mountain.<\/p>\n

The antique fortified medieval foundations, with vaulted stone walls and ceilings, have all been restored and reimagined as a Wellness Zone.<\/p>\n

All operations were guided by a wish to respect our surrounding natural environment as well as to provide all our guests with maximum levels of comfort.<\/p>\n<\/div>
