The Valley Library

Sleeps 10 · 5 bedrooms · 3 bathrooms

A restored stone house in the green valley of Toranzo, kept with the quiet care of a family that has known the land for generations. Is a house that belongs to its valley. Restored slowly, by hand, it keeps the proportions and the silence of the old Toranzo houses while opening to the light and the green of the hills. Mornings here smell of damp stone and woodsmoke; evenings, of the river below. Stone walls, lime-washed interiors, wooden beams and deep windows framed on the valley. A long table for slow meals, a hearth for cold evenings, and bedrooms that look out onto nothing but green.
