La Maisonette has been lovingly restored around an old chapel. High ceilings provide excellent natural light and highlight a stylish blend of contemporary living with many original architectural features. The cottage sits at the back of a sleepy hamlet where an ancient mule track winds into the forests behind. The woodland can also be enjoyed from the comfort of the garden as guests can expect to see local fauna whilst barbecuing in the open air. The cottage affords spectacular views of the valley where homesteads and hamlets nestle in distant escarpments.
La Maisonette is replete with two bedrooms. The master offers the possibility of a twin or double bed. We can also add a cot if requested. This room offers direct access to the garden and woodland beyond.
The second double is characterized by its exposed timbers, stone and mezzanine.
The fully furnished kitchen blends stylish and spacious living with many rustic touches. It is well equipped and perfect for family dining. The open plan design incorporates a living room complete with double sofa bed and large mezzanine.
The bathroom is chic, complete with a roomy walk-in power-shower, bidet and all the essentials. Whilst the back garden looks out over woodland, the front terrace offers a covered seating area with views over the hamlet and formidable precipices beyond.
Perhaps the quirkiest feature is the statue of ’The Black Madonna di Oropa’, upon which La Maisonette is built around.
Please note that we also provide a secure area to leave skis, mountain bikes and other sports/large equipment. Should guests arrive before or wish to leave after check-in/out, we are happy to store things for a later collection.

An unforgettable stay

We stayed at "La Maisonette" for only one week (July), and this was the only negative aspect of our holiday: we would have liked to have stayed longer! The cottage is located in a quiet hamlet of Fontainemore, just steps from the town center. Parking is easy. Fontainemore is located in the lower Gressoney Valley, and this strategic position allows for easy access to both the mid and upper valleys (we hiked to San Grato, Alpenzù, Gabiet, and Castel Savoia) as well as other areas worth visiting (Bard Fort) or enjoying beautiful walks (Monte Avic Natural Park). The surrounding area also offers surprises, with its hamlets, historic mule tracks (some of which start directly from the house), and the Mont Mars nature reserve. The recently renovated apartment is very welcoming, clean, and functional. It's simply yet tastefully furnished and equipped with everything you need (linens, dishes, and basic necessities). The living room and bedrooms, with their stone walls and wooden beamed ceilings, are warm spaces (the house is incredibly cool in the summer!) where you can spend time chatting, reading, playing (there are some toys), or researching the next day's excursion (books and brochures are provided). A travel cot was provided for our little one. There's also a lovely outdoor area, nestled at the foot of the wooded hill with a view of the mountains, which we enjoyed in the afternoons after returning from our hikes and for dinner. The owner was very kind and helpful. We really couldn't have expected anything better! We hope to be able to return, maybe in winter, but also in autumn, who knows!

Un soggiorno indimenticabile

Siamo stati ospiti presso "La Maisonette" una sola settimana (luglio), e questa è la sola nota stonata della nostra vacanza: ci sarebbe piaciuto potere rimanere di più!
La casetta si trova in una tranquilla frazione di Fontainemore, a due passi dal centro del paese. Si parcheggia senza problemi.
Fontainemore si trova nella bassa valle di Gressoney, e questa posizione strategica permette di raggiungere comodamente sia la media e l’alta valle (noi siamo andati a camminare a San Grato, Alpenzù, Gabiet, Castel Savoia) che altre zone da visitare (forte di Bard) o in cui fare belle passeggiate (Parco Naturale Monte Avic). Ma anche il territorio comunale rivela sorprese, con le sue frazioni, le sue mulattiere storiche (ne partono anche direttamente dalla casa) e la riserva del Mont Mars.
L’appartamento, ristrutturato di recente, è assai accogliente, pulito, funzionale, arredato in semplicità ma con gusto, equipaggiato di tutto il necessario (biancheria, stoviglie, generi di prima necessità). Il soggiorno, le camere, con le pareti in pietra, il soffitto con le travi in legno... sono spazi "caldi" (la casa d’estate è freschissima!) in cui si sta volentieri, per parlare, leggere, giocare (ci sono alcuni giochi), documentarsi sull’uscita da fare l’indomani (sono a disposizioni libri, depliant). Per il nostro piccolino ci è stato fatto trovare il lettino da campeggio. C’è anche un bell’esterno, raccolto ai piedi della collina boscosa, con la vista delle montagne, che abbiamo sfruttato al pomeriggio, al rientro dalle camminate, e per una cena.
La proprietaria è stata gentilissima e disponibilissima.
Davvero non ci potevamo aspettare di meglio!
Speriamo di poter tornare, magari d’inverno, ma anche d’autunno, chissà!
