Best kept secret
We had a fabulous stay at Johannes and Maria's apartment which is nestled in the hillside overlooking the village of Lanzo. A little piece of paradise. The apartment was clean, tidy and perfect for two adults. The hosts were accessible, friendly and helpful. The views from the property were stunning and made for beautiful sun rises and sunsets. We loved being able to walk to the village to enjoy coffee at one of several cafes. The village is overflowing with stunning architecture, winding, narrow streets and friendly citizens. Turin is accessible by train in less than an hour. We look forward to a return visit in the future. The MacNeils.

Absolutely wonderful.
We stayed at Johannes' place for a few nights after traveling around France following some of the Women's World Cup games. We wanted a place to relax and recover before heading back to the States, while also being able to enjoy some of Italy and the Italian culture. This place was exactly what we needed. We were two adults and our 12 year old son. The place is nice and cozy, not spacious inside, but was plenty of space for the 3 of us to enjoy some quite mountain time. We also enjoyed the very nice gardens and sitting spaces outside with great views of the quaint town of Lanzo below. The place is located away from the hustle and bustle, but you are only a short venture back into the hustle and bustle. We enjoyed visiting local castles and chapels, the city of Lanzo, and even some sights in Turino. But the best part was relaxing at Johannes' place. It was so peaceful and quiet. We made dinner and ate outside each evening. It was so pleasant...wish we were there now! I highly recommend this place. Thank you Johannes!

Sehr zufrieden mit unserer Wahl
Es war sehr schön, aufgrund der Randlage sehr ruhig, bis auf bellende Hunde, die man aus der Umgebung hörte, sehr erholsam, so wie wir es wollten. Das Wetter hätte besser sein können, aber da kann glücklicherweise niemand was dran ändern

Gezellig kneuterig paleisje in mooie omgeving
Accomodatie gelegen op een mooie locatie even buiten Lanzo. Volop ruimte buiten en binnen gezellig en kneuterig ingericht. Een hele tegenstelling in vergelijking met de objecten die de kunstenaar/host overal op de wereld heeft gepresenteerd. We hebben genoten. Zeker van Turijn omdat we daar op de basisschool een negatief beeld van hadden als vieze industriestad. Het was schitterend enenals Lanzo een dorp met historie.

Die Seele baumeln lassen
Ein perfekter Ort, um abzuschalten und die Seele baumeln zu lassen. In der liebevoll eingerichteten Casa Maria haben wir eine Woche Ruhe genossen. Mit einem Glas Wein auf der Terrasse sitzen, auf Lanzo im Tal und die umliegenden Berge schauen ist wunderschön. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

L'abbondanza del verde
Casa Maria si trova in mezzo al verde, immersa nella collina sopra Lanzo, in posizione strategica per visitare le valli. In 40 minuti di auto si arriva al Pian della Mussa o al Lago di Malciaussia. Lanzo ha un centro storico molto ben conservato e possibilità di passeggiate di diversa lunghezza e difficoltà. Casa Maria è attrezzata di tutto, Maria ci ha accolto e dato disponibilità per tutto il soggiorno ma non abbiamo fatto richieste perché la casa è davvero provvista di tutto e l'abbiamo trovata pulita e in ordine.

Wandern und Geniessen
Die zwei Wochen, die wir in der schönen Casa Maria verbringen durften, waren wunderbar abwechslungsreich, erholsam und genussvoll! Ob Wandern in den sehr schönen und nicht überlaufenen Lanzotälern samt Einkehr in verschiedenen Rifugios mit leckrer Küche, Ausflüge in die nahe Kulturmetropole Turin oder in die Piemonteser Weinberge - unser Urlaub war angefüllt mit Entdeckungen, und wir waren mit Sicherheit nicht zum letzten Mal hier! Johannes und Maria sind tolle Gastgeber und haben uns viele gute Tipps gegeben, vom Weinkauf über Restaurants bis zu sehenswerten Savoyer-Schlössern und Museen. Ganz herzlichen Dank für alles und bis hoffentlich bald!
