Property Summary
Nestled at 800 metres above sea level in the tranquil hamlet of Monti di Piazzogna, Switzerland, the charming rustic chalet "Monti di Piazzogna" offers an idyllic holiday rental experience surrounded by lush trees and open meadows. Positioned in a quiet, sunny, and elevated west-facing setting, this beautifully maintained property sits just 10 metres from the edge of the forest, providing an immediate connection to nature while ensuring complete privacy. The chalet is set within a fenced natural-state property, giving you a sense of seclusion and serenity throughout your stay. Wireless internet connection is available, keeping you connected even in this peaceful rural retreat. Parking is provided in a public area located 115 metres from the property along the road, with motor vehicle access available up to 115 metres from the house, followed by a short footpath of 115 metres leading directly to the chalet.

The outdoor spaces of this rustic chalet are among its most captivating features, inviting you to slow down and fully immerse yourself in the surrounding natural landscape. A beautiful garden in its natural state offers a wonderful setting in which to relax, unwind, and enjoy the fresh mountain air. The property also features a patio and a terrace, both ideal for outdoor dining, morning coffee, or simply taking in the peaceful views of the meadows and forest. A fireplace adds a warm and characterful touch, perfect for cooler evenings spent in the open air. With walking paths beginning just 10 metres from the house, the outdoors extend seamlessly beyond the garden into the surrounding countryside and forest trails.

You should also note that animals are present in the neighbourhood, which contributes to the authentic rural character of the surroundings.

10 / 10Outstanding·Aug 2021
Absolut wunderschöne Lage des Ferienhauses mit grandiosem Blick auf das Tal (Locarno und den See) und die Berge, ebenso am Abend wenn alles beleuchtet ist. Das Haus ist mit allem was man so braucht ausgestattet und sehr Sauber und Wertig. Wir haben uns dort sehr wohlgefühlt, ebenso unser Kater (Freigänger). Sehr toll ist auch die Möglichkeit den super Grill zu Nutzen. Internetnutzung ist auch gegeben. Vor allem die Serpentinenfahrt mit den unzähligen Kurven vom Ort Vira bis hoch zum Ferienhaus ist genial. Eine Weiterfahrt zum Alpi di Neggia sollte unbedingt unternommen werden! Ein kleiner Fußmarsch über einen geschlungenen Grass Pfad vom öffentlichen Parkplatz bis hoch zum Haus ist allerdings nötig und störte uns aber nicht. Die Vermittlung und der Kontakt waren sehr angenehm und unkompliziert (vielen Dank nochmals) Wir können dieses Ferienhaus nur empfehlen und würden uns jeder Zeit wieder dafür entscheiden.
Grüße Andreas M. und Familie
