Casa delle Alpi

Charming garden, loved the view!

A very attractively restored house in a beautiful setting. And a very warm welcome by the house manager Luciano. Highly recommend.

From 7-13 August 2021 we stayed in the house in Ponte nell'Alpi. An authentic house in the middle of the village next to the house of the owners. A warm welcome by owners and local manager in this spacious, somewhat dark (in the summer therefore cool) house. The car is parked a good distance away because of narrow, steep streets. Comfortable bed, (dish) washing machine and comfortable outdoor seating. The area is impressive, Dolomites / Lago del Mis / Treviso / Belluno / Venice.

I can search well on criteria I set, washing machine, dryer, dishwasher etc, I only miss a bed quality assessment, I like to sleep in a good bed,

The arrival was perfect. We were warmly welcomed by Luciano, Eva "s Italian neighbor. He explained everything very enthusiasticly and provided a lot of advice on things to do. The casa is very charming, positioned in a narrow street where you can experience Italian village life and are surrounded by mountains wherever you look. It was a perfect base for us to go cycling and hiking. Two weeks just weren "t enough. A one-hour drive to Venice and Treviso made the location very good for some cultural experiences as well. We would totally recommend a holiday in casa Gingelina.

Parking in the driveway of the house is difficult i.v.m. the narrow road where the house is located. This is fine for loading and unloading the suitcases, the rest of the time it is possible to park the car in a parking space a few meters away. The owners showed us this parking space immediately upon arrival. The cottage looks nice and it is quiet. We were there too early and called the owners, they immediately came home, this was well arranged. The people in the street are friendly and helpful. The owners can speak English and German well. Since it is not very touristy, almost nobody speaks English, but with Google Translated and the helpful people in the area you can go a long way. It is good to visit Venice (by train). You really need a car to visit the necessary sights.

After a more than excellent explanation about the route to the house, the owner was waiting for us upon arrival. A warm welcome to a very nice authentic house.
