The structure is perfect for a period of 2/3 days, the manager proved to be available, kind, friendly, attentive to needs and capable of meeting the customer from the reservation, also recommending places to visit and bars/restaurants to eat at. The service we tried was excellent, the guide who accompanied us was precise and kind. The breakfast was excellent and with outstanding local products. Definitely a place to recommend, in a "strategic" position regarding the Valle Stura. Excellent!

We stayed in this fabulous structure for a couple of days with our six-month-old baby. The location is easily accessible and is the best choice if you want to spend a few days in complete relaxation. The structure is very welcoming (the bed and pillows are very comfortable), well furnished, and very clean. Simona was a perfect hostess, attentive to our needs and very available to accommodate us even at check-out time. We greatly appreciated the choice of breakfast products coming from local realities, of excellent quality and at Km 0. We hope to be able to return soon.

The breakfast is excellent and there is everything you may need. Simona is very helpful and kind. The view is stunning, and the area is lovely, with very pleasant walks to take. And Moiola is very quiet. Truly enchanting.

The property has a lot of charm and is welcoming and in excellent condition. It is equipped with every comfort. The breakfast is exclusively with local homemade products. The panorama and view are spectacular. Despite the two days of continuous rain, we take away a beautiful memory.

I stayed in this property for an anniversary with my girlfriend and I must say that I was amazed by the beauty, comfort, and especially the cleanliness of this property! Upon our arrival, everything was as described earlier by the owner, who was very kind and helpful from the beginning, even with tips and information about activities to do in the area. I also requested a small extra for the anniversary-themed room decoration and there was not the slightest hesitation in fulfilling my request! The feeling of sleeping in an old drying room is astonishing! The breakfast is fantastic and abundant with homemade products. Privacy is guaranteed and the spectacle at dawn is wonderful! I will definitely return in winter hoping to catch some snow! Super positive and relaxing experience.

The holiday home has a particular charm thanks to its architecture and furnishings. The location is quiet and suitable for mountain excursions. The manager Simona satisfied every wish of ours and provided information on restaurants and activities in the area before the trip. We highly recommend the accommodation.

Lou Estela is a design structure immersed in the tranquility of a small village in Valle Stura. It's optimal for those who want to treat themselves to a relaxing weekend and slow down the pace of their days. The area offers various outdoor activities and is full of good places to eat typical local cuisine at truly advantageous prices. Simona provides guests with an amazing breakfast. The products are all locally sourced, from the yogurt she makes, to the local jams, to the apple juice, not to mention the delicious milk and homemade muffins. The care for the structure is also evident from the chosen products, not only the food ones. The soap, body wash, and body cream are not the usual ones from big industrial chains but they too seem to have gone through a careful selection. There's really everything, the atmosphere inside that old renovated drying shed is truly magical. There's satellite TV (which honestly we didn't even use) and a Bluetooth speaker to play music. The view from the large window in the sitting room in the morning is stunning, with the sun rays coming in to give you a sweet awakening! I highly recommend it, this weekend was rejuvenating!

Very comfortable bed and super warm duvet. Bluetooth speaker for music. Absolutely recommended.

The structure is a gem in every detail, a restoration project of a drying house by architect Castellino, from which one could not expect less. It is worth staying for at least a couple of nights to enjoy the place and the starry nights.

Simona's country house is a beautiful structure equipped with everything you need. As soon as you enter, you can smell the wood and the beautiful glass window fills the house with light. The cleanliness is impeccable and the breakfast is abundant. Every day in the breakfast basket they found something new. Many of the products are local or regional. The kitchen, equipped with everything you need, is perfect for cooking when the weather outside is unstable. Very important, during the stay Simona has always been available and never intrusive. In short, an excellent structure for relaxation lovers!
