Valde Haylofts

In a city renowned for taking it slow and enjoying life, start your day with a visit to the Caldarium spa. Hewn from the mountains, this sauna-like room is heated by pure wood fires, which heat the walls and the water of the scintillating 8-person tub. After relaxing away the stresses of the world make your way into town to visit one of the local "crotti" for the perfect local lunch. Natural caverns used for centuries to age salami, cheese, and wine, some of these are now amazing restaurants where you can sample some of the finest products in Italy. Take a tour of the city that afternoon, stopping in at the San Lorenzo Church to gaze over the fountainhead from 1156, before continuing on to the Museo del Tesoro, or the Museum of the Treasure. In the winter months head to nearby Valchiavenna for amazing alpine skiing and snowboarding, or take a helicopter directly from your door to the untouched mountain peaks. After a perfect day in the mountains, return to your room for a relaxing dinner of local cheese, breads and wine, or sit down at one of the charming, and amazing local restaurants to sample true Italian cuisine. At Valde Haylofts immerse yourself in the quiet, peaceful charm of the mountains, relax and enjoy life, and find your inner peace.
