About us

We love the mountains and nature and invite you to experience this special place in the Dolomites.

WHY THIS PLACE?

The Val Fiorentina is one of the most beautiful and unspoiled valleys in the Dolomites, and it captivated us on one of our many Alpine journeys.

Our search began in 2012. After traveling through the Pyrenees and the French and Swiss Alps, we were drawn to the Dolomites. The Italian lifestyle, warm hospitality, charming villages with simple yet essential facilities, and the opportunity for an active holiday in both winter and summer convinced us.

A few years after our first visit, a dilapidated farmhouse came on the market—and we made our decision quickly. Here, in this almost untouched corner of the Dolomites, we were able to bring our vision of holidaying and relaxation to life. After nearly three years of careful renovation, we are now able to share this special place with our guests. In our daily lives, we work in architecture and graphic design.

The maso has stood on this spot for over 200 years. Full of history, it enjoys a sunny southern exposure with breathtaking views of the high mountains, all while remaining peacefully away from the crowds. We hope to offer you a holiday that is either active, relaxing or comfortably in between.
