Nestled in the nature of M. Sasso del Ferro, in a secluded position at 750 m asl, is the Capre e cavoli farm and agritourism that raises goats and produces cheese. In a rural setting and away from the hustle and bustle but only a 20-minute drive from Laveno on Lake Maggiore, you can find peace and contact with animals and traditions. The detached apartment located on the ground floor of our home is an open space of about 40 square meters with large windows and magnificent views of the surrounding mountains, equipped with a fully equipped kitchen, oven, refrigerator and dishwasher, solid larch floor and wood stove. The farmhouse is reachable only by car , not by public transport, from the traffic light in Cittiglio (VA) taking the SP8 that goes up to Vararo in 7 km (about 15 min). Starting on foot from the accommodation, one can go on beautiful hikes in the surrounding mountains with breathtaking views of Lake Maggiore and the Alpine chain. Numerous parks and nature reserves as well as places of art and history within a 30-km radius.
Nature and surroundings

The small village of Vararo, which is 1 km from the farm, is a typical mountain village that still preserves rural dwellings with rustic courtyards. From the mountain peaks there are spectacular views of Lake Maggiore and the Alpine chain. Ideal places for hikers and nature enthusiasts.

due to circumstances did not walk much, only the easiest
door omstandigheden niet veel gewandeld, alleen de makkelijkste
A beautiful place in the middle of nature, with a host/hostess who welcome you so warmly that you feel right at home. Renato takes all the time for a chat and knows a lot to tell about the trees, the birds and of course the goats and the life there. Very easy and nice communication, good tips tailored. very nice to be able to take a look in the stable. the cottage itself is really comfortable, a wood stove, good kitchen, a nice bed and cozy. we took home a delicious cheese made by Chiara and honey from the hills. highly recommended!!!
Een prachtige plek midden in de natuur, met een gastheer/vrouw die je zo warm verwelkomen dat je je gelijk thuis voelt. Renato neemt alle tijd voor een praatje en weet heel veel te vertellen over de bomen, de vogels en natuurlijk de geiten en het leven daar. Heel makkelijk en fijn communiceren, goede tips op maat.
Heel leuk om een kijkje in de stal te mogen nemen.
Het huisje zelf is echt comfortabel, een houtkachel, goede keuken, een lekker bed en gezellig.
wij hebben een heerlijk kaasje door Chiara gemaakt mee naar huis genomen en honing vanuit de heuvels.
Een echte aanrader!!This text is automatically translated. -

Without luxury, but everything you need is there.
Zonder luxe, maar alles wat je nodig hebt is er.
A nature house as it should be. In the middle of the green hills, hiking trails everywhere, peace and quiet. The cottage has everything you need. The owners are very helpful and give tips on sightseeing, restaurants, hiking, etc. They also know a lot to tell about local flora and fauna. Lovely to start the day with a crappuccino fresh from the goat barn. Also delicious products from the goats for sale. In short: top destination if you want to be in the middle of nature and experience the real Italian rural life!
Een natuurhuisje zoals het zou moeten zijn. Midden in de groene heuvels, wandelpaden overal, rust en ruimte. Het huisje heeft alles wat je nodig hebt. De eigenaren zijn zeer behulpzaam en geven tips over bezienswaardigheden, restaurants, wandeltochten, etc. Ze weten ook heel veel te vertellen over plaatselijke flora en fauna. Heerlijk om de dag te beginnen met een crappuccino, vers uit de geitenstal. Ook nog eens heerlijke producten van de geiten te koop. Kortom: top bestemming als je midden in de natuur wil zijn en het echte Italiaanse plattelands leven wil meemaken!

Idyllic spot in the middle of nature.
Idyllische plek midden in de natuur.
Fantastic place to unwind in the middle of nature. Everything necessary is available in the cottage, also for fine winter evenings by the wood stove. With Renato and Chiara as extremely friendly and helpful hosts and lady, who are also willing to tell about life in and with nature. Together with their goats we spent a fantastic week there.
Fantastische plek om midden in de natuur tot rust te komen. Al het noodzakelijke is in het huisje aanwezig, ook voor fijne winteravonden bij de houtkachel. Met Renato en Chiara als uitermate vriendelijke en behulpzame gastheer en dame, die tevens bereid zijn te vertellen over het leven in en met de natuur. Samen met hun geiten hebben we daar een fantastische week beleefd.
