Description

B&B Il Castagneto is located in Pasturo, a small town in Valsassina, at an altitude of about 600 meters. It is surrounded by mountains where you can still breathe clean air.

The B&B is strategically located on a hill immersed in greenery, with a splendid panoramic view. It is only 600 meters from the town center, 10 km from Lecco, and 50 km from Milan.

The B&B is set in a villa, which was created from an old farmhouse that was completely renovated a few years ago. It has 3 rooms (with amenities), each furnished in different styles, from traditional to modern. The materials used for the coverings, such as wood and stone, were selected to preserve the characteristics of the mountain environment.

To protect the environment, a photovoltaic plant has recently been installed to serve the house.

The structure also has a large garden (about 5,000 square meters) where you can relax, listening to the only noises that surround it, such as the singing of birds and the rustling of the stream that flows next to the house.

You can park your car directly in front of the room.

Breakfast

We believe that breakfast is an important part of B & B..in fact the order in which they are listed in the two words have a purely chronological significance (before you sleep and then you have breakfast), and not of importance. Both aspects are of equal value and we particularly love cure the breakfast service, for the pleasure of our guests..

We serve a rich breakfast and care, we serve croissants or cakes every morning, and for lovers of Italian breakfast There will be fresh bread accompanied by a jam and / or nutella, juice Fruit and Yoghurt.

Every morning you can choose the most preferred hot drink, coffee, tea, coffee and milk or hot milk.

During the good season we serve breakfast outside, in a green area, shaded by a gazebo, enjoying the beautiful view of the mountains and the valley that houses the Valsassina.

Good morning to all my potential guests. I have been managing a bed and breakfast for 12 years now. My name is Manuela and I am a woman in my fifties, actually a little older! I have always worked in contact with people in various sectors! Then, having the space in my home, I decided to make it available to people who want to stay in the greenery and tranquillity and peace of nature. If you want to get to know me, just book with me. I greet you all and wish you much serenity.

The place is very cozy, I would add enchanting, and very relaxing if you want to get away from the city chaos. The owner is extremely helpful. Just like in all B&Bs, you feel at home. I will definitely come back.

It's not really a bed and breakfast, but a couple of rooms in the main house, small yet comfortable. There is a lack of freedom space, it feels like being guests at the owners' house. Breakfast on request, it is good to specify precisely what you would like to eat, otherwise you are provided with what the average guests normally eat. Beautiful location.

I stayed at this B&B in July, I stayed with my 84-year-old father. It was planned for a week's stay, then we liked the quiet place on the mountain hills of Valsassina with a stunning, relaxing view, a coolness... that we decided, given the opportunity, to extend our stay. The owner Manuela, a kind, affable, down-to-earth woman, with whom a friendly relationship was established, even with the 90-year-old father, a super active man who takes care of the wonderful garden surrounding the entire B&B. We were in a studio with an internal kitchen, we didn't have breakfast, but I could see what Manuela prepares. Next time we will try, we plan to return as soon as possible as it is just over an hour from Milan province, easy to reach. Thanks to Manuela and family.

Beautiful, clean, and private place. Mrs. Emanuela is an excellent host, she immediately made us feel comfortable. Excellent outdoor breakfast. We only stayed one night, but it's a great reference point for a holiday in Valsassina.

Ideal for weekends immersed in the relaxation of nature. Ski slopes are reachable within a few minutes in winter, or trails and walks to do with the family and children. I recommend it!

I have been to Valsassina several times now and the B&B Il Castagneto has become my point of reference. Emanuela's hospitality is unique: courteous, kind, caring without losing professionalism. Every time it's like coming back home. If that weren't enough, the beauty of the landscape and the serenity that emanate from the B&B's location are already reasons in themselves to prefer and choose it. Highly recommended.

Il Castagneto is in a lovely position, in the hills surrounded by woods, yet easily accessible from the SP. It is not too far on foot from the village of Pasturo where one can find a pleasant bar - the Bar Sporting, a grocery, a pharmacy and a shop called Non Solo Pasta for those who wish to pick up some deli food, salads, baked pasta and desserts for picnics or to eat in at the b&b. The property itself is very attractive and we enjoyed having breakfast out in the garden and just chilling out on the deckchairs and sofas in the evening. The rooms are nicely furnished, the kitchen is very well equipped for those who wish to make their own meals, and everything works properly. We stayed in the Red Room, which is rather small, and I would recommend it to those who want to spend all day outdoors. However, adding the use of the kitchen to this bedroom will greatly add to the comfort, while noting that guests in the next room will need to pass through the kitchen. The host of this property is a friendly, easy-going person who treats clients as guests and ensures that they have a very nice stay. There are some pleasant walks that start from the B&B itself, and other walks that start from Pasturo, while a short drive away are the Barzio and Artavaggio cable cars. All in all, staying at Il Castagneto was a very good choice because the property itself is nice enough to spend the entire day there, while there are several things to do in the surrounding area.

Beautiful structure in a panoramic and convenient location for travels. We stayed in a studio apartment equipped with all comforts, warm welcome and extreme cordiality. Mrs. Manuela is a concentration of hospitality, determination, and friendliness, not to mention the daughter Silvia. Also, the super nice grandfather. Breakfast respects everyone's tastes and habits, served under the gazebo in the garden, and I assure you, starting the day pampered, served, and revered, with the wonderful panorama and the crisp air of the place, is truly a great vacation. Thank you Manuela, see you soon.

This place is simply perfect. We had a fantastic weekend there, for a skiing and relaxation vacation. The apartment was beautiful, clean, cozy, quiet, and well-heated (even though it is located in the mountains) and the view was breathtaking. The apartment also has a private kitchen, bathroom and shower, as well as Wi-Fi included. The B&B Il Castagneto is managed by Emanuela, who is very kind and welcoming, always available and made us feel at home. I recently moved to Italy and my Italian is not very good, but Emanuela was still very nice, friendly and easy to talk to. She also prepared us a fantastic Italian breakfast. Since we didn't have a car, she was always there to help with her amazing smile and gave us a ride to the Piani di Bobbio ski resort (which is very close), and to other places in beautiful Pasturo. It's also possible to take nice walks in the nature of Pasturo or walk from the B&B to the Pizzeria, supermarket, and bar. We will definitely be back!

Io e la mia famiglia abbiamo soggiornato per 4 giorni e 3 notti. Ci siamo trovati molto bene anche con la titolare dell'attività. Ovviamente devi avere l'auto per spostarti nelle vicinanze. Ambiente molto tranquillo, ideale per riposarsi, ma anche comodo per raggiungere la funivia per i piani di Bobbio molto organizzati per gli sport invernali come sci e bob. Abbiamo fatto amicizia anche con un gattino di nome trilli di cui mia figlia si è innamorata subito. Ci ritorneremo sicuramente.

The answer from the host:
Grazie Stefi! Nonostante l'inconveniente del palo. Sia ieri che oggi, ci hanno tolto l'elettricità perché stanno ripristinando il danno. Alla prossima! Il miele vi aspetta. Anche con comodo. Un abbraccio ai ragazzi e perché no, anche a tuo marito! Ciao.

silvia

Abbiamo soggiornato nel B&B in 4 per Capodanno e fino all'Epifania. La sistemazione è comoda perché abbiamo avuto un mini appartamento fornito di tutti i comfort, riscaldamento personalizzabile uso cucina etc. La struttura è nuova e funzionale la posizione buona rispetto alle piste, occorre avere l'auto per spostarsi, anche se la signora Manuela è sempre molto disponibile ad accompagnare in caso di necessità. La colazione è molto personalizzabile quindi bisogna essere dettagliati nelle richieste, penso sia dovuto ad evitare lo spreco e personalmente lo trovo molto giusto quindi poca timidezza nelle richieste (la torta di mele è buonissima, chiedetela). Una delle stanze è un po' piccolina ma comunque confortevole. Pulizie e cambio biancheria ogni 3 giorni sempre per riguardo all'ambiente, lo trovo apprezzabile è un ambiente familiare e non prevede un trattamento standard da hotel, Manuela è un po' la mamma di tutti nel B&B e ci è venuta incontro in qualsiasi richiesta anche stravagante tipo spostare la macchina dal parcheggio perché terrorizzati dal ghiaccio (inesistente). Ultima chicca la presenza discreta di due gattini molto affettuosi e che gradiscono parecchio le bricioline avanzate dalle torte della colazione. Lo consiglio anche per lunghi soggiorni.

Tutto perfetto. La Signora Manuela è una bravissima padrona di casa; presente e premurosa su qualsiasi esigenza, senza essere mai invadente, ma anzi facendoti sentire a tuo agio. Camera bella e pulitissima; colazione abbondante servita sotto il fresco gazebo del giardino. Un 10 su tutto.

La struttura è accogliente e si trova immersa in un posto incantevole, silenzioso e isolato rispetto al centro del paese (in ogni caso piccolo e silenzioso). Ci sono tante camminate da poter fare in zona e prendendo l'auto si arriva a più stazioni sciistiche. A noi è piaciuto molto.

Struttura ben curata e confortevole, ampia stanza tripla con bagno, ottima la pulizia e la posizione, a soli 10 minuti di macchina dalla funivia di Barzio, cordialità e gentilezza contraddistingono l'accoglienza da parte della proprietaria.
