Hey from Gerlanda

Member since January 2008 | 56,851 hits

By more than 20 years I moved from Milan to Margno a small village at the beginning of the High Valsassina.

What struck me the first time I came here was the green of the valley and the blue sky, the ability to do many walks from the simplest ones to spend some time immersed in the tranquility of the surrounding forests to more challenging hikes to refuges Grigna of Legnone, Pizzo Tre Signori and Giumello.

he beautiful house where I live allows me to practice some of my favorite Hobbies:
gardening in the garden of the house filled with plants and flowers throughout the year and that allows me to exchange seeds and cuttings with my friends and my guests, the nearby garden where we cultivate raspberries, currants and blackberries (hence the name of the rooms the b & b), apples and plums with which to prepare excellent jams.

The kitchen is another hobby of mine not only the local cuisine but also that of my family of Sicilian origin, I also like to try the recipes of my guests including foreigners and
especially in the summer dinner parties in my tavern.

I like to read and listen to music and take care of the restoration of small furniture, sew and paint in watercolor and on the walls of the house of trompe l'oeil or stencil to make it even more welcoming.

Sometimes I wish the days of 48 hours to do all this!

Ca' di Sala is highly regarded for its warm and homely atmosphere, with the owner Gerlanda praised for her friendliness and attentiveness. Rooms are welcoming, charmingly decorated in a rustic style, and consistently clean. Breakfast is a standout feature: generous and featuring fresh, homemade, and local products like jams and cakes. The central location is convenient for exploring both the town and surrounding mountains or Lake Como, as well as for accessing nearby ski slopes. The environment is peaceful and relaxing, with guests often saying they felt "at home" thanks to the hospitality and helpful advice. An ideal choice for an authentic and tranquil stay.

Warm and welcoming, Ca' di Sala offers a serene stay, full of all comforts. Extraordinary is the excellent "hostess", dear Mrs. Gerlanda, who literally knows how to pamper her guests! We thank her from the heart for everything! We had a great time, especially thanks to the delicious walnut cake!

The B&B is beautiful, the room we were in is delightful. It also has a small living area with a sofa and a fireplace. The furnishings are very well-kept and the cleanliness is perfect. The breakfast is plentiful, both sweet and savory. Mrs. Gerlanda is very kind and friendly. We greatly appreciated that during breakfast she conversed with us as if we were family.

Staying in this place is like treating yourself to an escape from the world and living for a moment in a timeless and happy place. Mrs. Gerlanda, the owner, opens the doors for you in a little gem where feeling pampered is a moment. I loved the furniture and the taste "of the past". Abundant and well-crafted breakfast with local delicacies. Gerlanda's jams are also a good reason to come back. I recommend it!

Gerlanda is truly the soul of the B&B La Cà di Sala: her stories have colored our stay; a sunny and lively woman, practical and concrete, she has given us many smiles. Communicating with her has been simple and effective: she responds promptly in chat and via WhatsApp; she offers useful advice on activities to enjoy in the surroundings (we stopped at the "Giant Bench" of the Giumello alp to enjoy a spectacular view); she shares funny anecdotes while preparing the morning coffee. The breakfast is varied: from cheese with salami, to the walnut cake; from the fluffy brioches to the typical "Caviadini" biscuits; noteworthy are the homemade jams, produced from fruits grown by the owner: apples, ginger, and cinnamon was my favorite! The house is special: it combines antique details like wooden doors with latches with the practicality of a modern B&B equipped with all comforts. The night was spent in a very pleasant quietness. The public parking is large and a few tens of meters away from the entrance; there you can find an ATM and a pharmacy. For those who love to travel by car and want to explore: from Margno you can continue up the mountain; after crossing the woods, you can see the azure of Lake Como and, in a short time, you have the opportunity to reach its shores (Dervio location). Colors are truly the "fil rouge" of this journey: from the pastel tones of the "Raspberry" room to the vibrant shades of the Trompe l'oeil painted by Gerlanda; from the candid white of the birches to the bright white of the snow.

From the beginning, the place made a good impression on me, beautiful rooms, close location for walks both in the mountains and by the lake, very welcoming owner and excellent breakfast.

stayed from 07/14/2019 to 07/15/2019

The answer from the host:
Grazie Rosanna, sono contenta che il mio B&B Vi sia piaciuto spero di vedervi ancora. Saluti Gerlanda.

raffaele

The strength of this B&B is the homely atmosphere it makes you experience. Gerlanda is an exceptional host, welcoming you with warmth and enthusiasm, always making you feel comfortable. The property, housed in an ancient 15th-century villa, offers rooms in a rustic style, very warm and welcoming. The cleanliness of the rooms is excellent. Breakfast is another highlight: every morning a triumph of homemade pies, jams, local cold cuts, and so much more. In short, if you want to enjoy the beauties of Val Sassina, B&B La Cà di Sala is certainly a great start.

Very nice structure with specific local furnishings that offer a warm and relaxing atmosphere like home, located in the center of the village and very close to the cable car.

A fabulous place! Gerlanda was exceptionally kind! Upon arrival, you find yourself in the center of the village, so you won't get lost. The trails of the high Valsassina are beautiful, allowing you to venture without getting lost, while enjoying the peace of nature and an exceptional view. And the breakfast: homemade jams and cakes, accompanied by a smile and a nice morning chat. The room is beautiful, tasteful, tidy, and with all the amenities, including the balcony overlooking the square. I will definitely return.

mariarita

I stayed during the festival of the alpines. The room is very beautiful with wooden furniture, elegant, large wardrobe, nice view from the window. The bathroom is large and brand new with exquisite towel hangers and a large mirror. The sheets are colorful and comfortable like the bed. Care for every detail; from the color of the walls to the curtains. Colorful and comfortable the bathroom linen. The cleanliness is excellent. I believe the above can be attributed to Geralda who works with fervent passion in managing the house, decorating it with the works of an artist. The breakfast is excellent with more foods to taste. It is equivalent to a 4-star rating. Soon I will have to contact her because I will return in 3 weeks.

gianpietro

We stayed only for one night while passing through the area. The B&B La Cà di Sala is on the main street that crosses the village, but it is very quiet. The 'Morà' room is very spacious, quiet and furnished with period furniture with good taste. Mrs. Gerlanda made us feel at ease right away, very helpful with information and maps about the area. The breakfast is truly something exceptional: homemade jams, different types of bread and pastries, and a delicious orange cake. On occasion, we will return gladly. Great trattoria in the area, Bar Trattoria Regina, exceptional for quality/price, quiet during the week but to be booked on weekends.

I stayed with my family, we are five, and with another couple of friends, two plus two, and more than in a B&B it felt like being guests of friends. The house is clean, the breakfast is abundant and the landlady was very welcoming. We will return.

We felt at home. The lady who manages the structure is very kind, friendly, helpful, and, most importantly, an excellent cook: cookies, cakes, and homemade jams. In a well-renovated and clean historic house, three different comfortable and welcoming rooms have been created. We will definitely return.
