We stayed three nights, the apartment is nicely furnished, very clean, quiet and comfortable. It had all the amenities you need and more. The hosts were great, very friendly and very generous. The property is beautiful, high on a mountain with fantastic views. The pool was outstanding. Markets and restaurants are within minutes drive. We absolutely loved our stay. For the great hospitality and beautiful venue, we highly recommend Monticello Masion de Charme.

Superb vacation :-)

Everything was as expected 👍 Nice and clean everywhere, including the pool, through the whole stay. Manoli and his wife was very kind to ask if everything was ok too. - And they helped us a lot by recommending good restaurants in the area. We will absolutely recommend this place for a vacation, and we would (of course) like to come back 🤗 Greetings from four adults, and a little dog

We had a fantastic holiday

Giuliano e Antonella gave us a warm welcoming and are very lovely hosts. The appartment was exactly as described. Everything was very clean and comfortably furnished. There is a wonderful view from the terrace. The pool and pool house are fabulous. The ice creams in the pool house are the icing on the cake. The location is ideal for day trips. We visited the Lago Maggiore, Milan, Turin, .... But you can also make beautiful walks in the area. Be sure to visit the Santuario di Oropa.

Easy Living!

We traveled to Piemonte for the first time and spent a wonderful week exploring the area. Staying at the lovely Monticello made our visit extremely enjoyable. Giuliano and Angelina gave us great recommendations and were there to answer any questions. The apartment was very clean, well stocked and comfortable. The extras including the pool, the gardens, and the views made this a trip we will never forget! The photos do not accurately convey what an incredible place this is. You will not be disappointed. Thank you to Giuliano and Angela for allowing us to enjoy Montecello!

Amazing in any way possible

The appartment is High quality, as is the rest of the property. Guliano is a perfect host. We have travelled most of Italy for more than 30 years, and have never been at a place like this. Everything is included, towels for the pool, fully equipped kitchen, even a bar and icecream and drinks for sale by the pool. Everything clean and in good quality, very helpfull and nice owner, ready to help. Price and quality is perfectly matched. We hope to come back in the not to far future.

Difficile de trouver mieux! Nous (2 adultes, 1 enfant 9 ans) avont passé 10 jours incomparables dans la maison de charme de Monticello. Antonella et Giuliano ont créé un oasis de repos et de luxe avec une attention particulière pour la qualité haut de gamme (propriété, maison, meubles, pool, gym, équipement, serviettes, etc.) et le service.Après de nombreuses années d‘expérience dans de très belles locations, la maison de charme prend la place 1 au moins pour: le service, le pool, la qualité et la générosité de l‘accueil.Nous partageons par ailleurs les commentaires élogieux des autres locataires.La région offre largement suffisamment d‘objectifs pour les excursions quotidiennes. Outre les randonnées en montagne, nous recommandons entre autres Milan et surtout Turin (environ 1 heure en voiture).Merci encore Antonella et Giuliano pour ce magnifique séjour!

Heerlijk Monticello in Valdengo

De gastheer en gastvrouw zijn voorbereid op je komst en ontvangen je vriendelijk. Een mand met boodschappen voor het bereiden van de eerste maaltijd stond voor ons klaar, net als de eerste drankjes. Super! Na een introductie en een rondleiding door de accommodatie zijn de attente gastheer en gastvrouw waar nodig op de achtergrond aanwezig. Een heerlijk zwembad met een naastgelegen badhuis staan tot beschikking van de gasten. We hebben genoten van de gastvrijheid en de hartelijkheid van de gastheer en gastvrouw die de moeite namen om de avond voor vertrek op een leuke manier afscheid te nemen door een drankje op onze vakantie te nemen en een leuke attentie aan ons meegaven. Een aanrader voor een relaxed verblijf in noord Italië waar we zeker terug gaan komen. Deze mensen weten wat hun gasten nodig zijn. Bedankt lieve Guiliano en Antonella! Familie Faber

Droomvakantie

Het was een vakantie zoals uit de brochures. Het was nog mooier en leuker als op de foto's. Zeer aangenaam ontvangen. Mand met eerste boodschappenen stonden klaar in het appartement. Handdoeken regelmatig verschoond. Wasmachine, vaatwasser, kruiden, schoonmaakmiddelen. Zo compleet allemaal. Heerlijke veranda met een prachtig uitzicht. De tuin was voor de hond heerlijk om in te scharrelen. We waanden ons voor twee weken landgoedeigenaar. Zwembad met poolhouse, keuken en ijskast aanwezig. Heerlijke ijsjes en chips werd regelmatig aangevuld. Omliggende dorpjes bekeken. Weinig toeristen. Dus gezellig onder de lokale mensen gegeten en niet duur. Giuliano en Anthonella zijn zo aardig en behulpzaam. Je voelt je er direct thuis. Het was volmaakt.

Thanks for the nice review. At Monticello we try to give an excellent service to the families we host precisely because we ourselves are used to traveling and we know very well that hospitality is very important and for this reason we want our guests to feel at home. We are also happy to have hosted your dogs who have found ample space available for their runs. We are still waiting for you.

Die Gastgeber sind sehr nett und ausgesprochen bemüht. Wir haben den großen Pool genutzt, die Ziele der Umgebung von Mailand bis Turin und vom Lage Maggiore bis zum Monte Bianco erkundet und uns super erholt. Absolut zu empfehlen. Vielen Dank.

Very nice apartment and great pool. Located at the top of a hill with a view on Biella

Great apartment with all you need to have a relaxing and worryless vacation. Bedrooms are air conditioned so even with the elevated temperature, sleeping was no problem. Owners are friendly and can help you around with some good addresses for local wine tasting. The pool was very enjoyable with a possibility to use the attached pool house.

Die Vermieter sind sehr nette Menschen, die alles tun, damit es einem gut geht. Die ganze Gegend ist frei von Hektik und Menschenmassen.
