Description

A family-run B&B in Domio, in the municipality of San Dorligo della Valle.

This was my grandparents' house, the starting point for all the village festivals, where we laughed, danced, and shared life. Today, I've decided to reopen its doors to relive those emotions, welcoming every guest as if they were family friends.

The rooms smell of wood and memories, while the breakfast room, with homemade cakes and fruit from the garden, invites you to share. In the garden, you can relax and meet all our animals.

Hey from Gaia

Member since October 2025 | 1,505 hits

I'm a simple person with a spirit drawn back to times gone by, when life moved more slowly and people were closer.

There were everyday gestures that seem almost lost today: homemade bread, preserves, grape harvests. These are traditions I'd love to revive, offering my guests an authentic experience, made of small details, familiar aromas, and a sincere welcome.

Very well-kept and exceptionally clean accommodation with lovingly coordinated details. The breakfast is plentiful and fresh. The accommodation has a small refrigerator (not mentioned in the description), and the air conditioning is advantageously placed in the wardrobe area, particularly pleasant when used during the night. Despite the nearby highway, the room remains quiet with the windows closed (the road is noticeable but not really disturbing). The host is friendly; communication works in both Italian and English. A charming feature is the host's animals (chickens, ducks, rabbits, etc.) that roam freely on the property. Parking is available on the street directly in front of or near the accommodation (no reserved spaces; you park where there is space). In the area there are bus stops for trips to Trieste; apps like glimble are also available for this, as well as a bakery and a tobacco shop where, among other things, bus tickets are available. The stay was pleasant and straightforward - a classic bed-and-breakfast experience. I would gladly stay again.

A perfect stay: highly recommended! The property is splendid, furnished with exceptional taste and an incredible attention to the smallest details. The cleanliness is truly impeccable. The real highlight is the breakfast: a special mention goes to Gaia, who delighted us every morning with truly exceptional homemade cakes and cookies. Gaia is a delightful person, very kind and always super helpful. Also noteworthy is the beautiful atmosphere of the garden, where in the morning it is possible to admire very cute little animals. We will definitely return!

A small corner of Trieste full of love and care for the history of its family, the territory and the environment. If you like an oasis of calm where every detail is cared for with passion and offered to the guest, who feels welcomed and pampered, this is the right place. The owner, Gaia, as her name already suggests, will welcome you warmly in an environment where wood reigns in all its forms and with an authentic shabby-chic flavor that draws on the roots of her personal history. In the morning, breakfast is the perfect moment to enjoy cakes and biscuits strictly prepared by Gaia, while you can ask for advice about all the treasures Trieste has to offer. Making the experience even more magical is the small garden populated by many farm animals that roam peacefully and make the stay even more relaxing, as if Gaia had the power to stop time, which today runs too fast. A little sheep, several hens and two roosters, the geese and a friendly white rabbit will transport you to a world where you reclaim something increasingly rare: the serenity of finding yourself in a corner of nature, even though you are in the city. The rooms are equipped with every comfort, with excellent space management, a spacious bathroom and a large shower area, all seasoned with great taste.

My wife and I spent five days (four nights) at A Casa da Nono. The room and bathroom were absolutely nice and clean. Gaia, the host, was a nice person, very helpful and friendly. I recommend this place to everyone who would like to stay in a calm, peaceful and quiet environment.

Great stay, unfortunately only for one night. The owners were kind and helpful. Quiet location, ideal for visiting the city and the surrounding area. Bus stops are nearby, allowing you to visit the beautiful city of Trieste without having to worry about finding parking. Clean property and spacious, tastefully furnished rooms equipped with everything you need. Excellent breakfast. Great value for money. I recommend it.

There are enough parking spaces on the public street in front of the house. The public bus stop is a 10-minute walk away and has a direct connection to the city centre. We had a good breakfast with homemade cake and marmalade. The hosts were very kind and friendly.

An oasis on the outskirts of Trieste! The rooms and the breakfast room are decorated with loving details. The mix of nostalgia and modern comfort invites you to arrive and feel at home. The whole experience is accompanied by content small animals that roam the adjoining land. Nothing escapes the extremely attentive hostess, and she also conjures up homemade delicacies at the breakfast table. Many thanks again! We felt very comfortable.

Gaia and her family have created a place where beauty, kindness, attention to every detail and the best tourist hospitality are the defining features. But there's more. Gaia is a true entrepreneur and a delightful, genuine person. The breakfast that marks a sweet farewell to this very positive experience is not only abundant but also very genuine: cakes and yogurt are homemade, and so delicious! And when you say goodbye to her, you carry her and the beautiful house where she hosted you in your heart. Her grandparents and the events they have gone through, and continue to go through, in this borderland are able to tell the story of which we are all part. Thank you Gaia and family! You are fantastic!

Che dire… mi avete fatta commuovere di nuovo! Grazie per il modo in cui avete saputo accogliere non solo la casa, ma anche la sua anima. Anche voi, con i vostri racconti avete lasciato un segno in me. Grzie ancora

Lovely bed and breakfast. I stayed for two nights and felt very comfortable. Quiet place; you sleep really well. The rooms are spacious and furnished in an antique style. The breakfast is excellent, with delicious pastries prepared by the owner and different every day. The owner is very kind and friendly. I recommend it to everyone.
