The house is in San Colombano (1000m) - a peaceful and quiet village in the high Valtrompia valley. It is surrounded by mountains (up to 2000m) such as Corna Blacca, Dosso Alto, Monte Colombine; forests, river streams, and where the mineral water is clean and excellent for digestion, the skin - straight from the tap. The air is fresh, clean, with the perfume of pine trees, wafting in the breeze.
It is the perfect place for a simple mountain life - ideal for nature lovers, and sport activities like mountain biking, jogging, climbing, walking and horse riding. The local bakery delivers bread fresh every morning at 8.30 am. On Tuesday and Friday, "Ruggiero" comes in his tiny truck, selling fresh fruits, vegetables, plants and herbs (many coming from organic farms). Fresh eggs, local cheese, butter and milk, can be bought at Maria's farm - 5 minutes walk.
There are 2 supermarkets - Silvio's Supermarket: where you can find local salami, cheese, grapes, wines, pasta, etc and the famous salamine (a fresh local sausage to be cooked on the barbecue or fireplace); and Colombano Market - where they specialize in cheese.
Also there are several restaurants with excellent regional cuisine. Among them La Scaletta, La Stella, Agroturismo "El baita". There are 2 hairdressers, a post office, church, nursery, school, two pizzerias, and tennis court. All of these are within 5 minutes walk of the house.
From mid July to mid August there are concerts, dances, events every night, in the centre of the village (with a free creche for children in the afternoon)
PLACES TO VISIT
Its well worth discovering the local towns of Collio and Bogalino, as well as the Lakes of Idro, Iseo, or Garda - perfect for swimming and other water activities.
