Your own hamlet: 2 Rustici on the Verzasca

Two 300-year-old stone houses with original granite roofs — your own little hamlet, a stone's throw from Lavertezzo and the emerald green Verzasca. There's no one else here. The chestnut forest is right behind the houses, and there's a waterfall opposite. At night, you hear nothing but the river and crickets. Both houses together: 300 m², a total of 5 rooms (including 3 bedrooms), sleeps 12, 2 kitchens, 2 bathrooms, 2 fireplaces, 2 terraces and a shaded garden – all connected, all for you.
