We welcome you to our Italian Chalet accommodating up to 8 people in two rooms with two bathrooms. (two bedrooms, two bathrooms, kitchen/lounge/diner, two balconies all situated on the first and second floors) The chalet is situated a stones throw from the centre of Aosta City and 7 minutes drive to the ski lift up to Pila.
The chalet was originally built in 1800s in the valdostaine stone style - see photos in the gallery.
FLIGHTS TO TURIN ITALY is our nearest airport, just an hour transfer (easyjet, BA, Ryanair, BlueAir), Milan or Geneva 2 hours away, hire a car or pick up the Chamexpress to Aosta from Geneva. It's an easy drive from Calais and takes 9 hours plus stopping time, so doable with 2 drivers in a day OR we suggest a stop off around Troyes/Dijon in France which is halfway between Calais and Aosta. Driving often works out cheaper especially during school holidays. We can arrange private transfers from Turin airport for your group or you can hire a car from any of the airports. There are also buses from the airport to Aosta or from Turin by train to Aosta with one change. Please ask for details, we can pick you up from Aosta train station, this is by far the cheapest way to travel if you are just one or two.
