Originally built in 1593, this chalet has all the character you’d expect from a home of that vintage. It still retains plenty of period charm, yet offers all the comforts you need after a long day in the great outdoors, including a sauna and hot tub, plus an extra sofa bed that sleeps two. There’s also a balcony for après-ski drinks and space to store your skis when you’re not on the slopes. Whether you’re here for the winter snow or summer hiking, you’ll love being in the heart of Madesimo – an outpost of alpine adventure all year round.
