About this property
Come stay in our "Little Nest"!
The house is called Casa Piccolo Nido, which means "little nest" in Italian. It's located in an historic nucleus with winding pathways and beautiful old homes. The house is a small but spacious three rooms rustico, with a cozy atmosphere, which includes a fire place. There are three floors. The neighborhood is very quiet, even in summer, for a nice relaxing get away close to nature.
The kitchen, dining area and bathroom are on the first floor, the second floor has a living room with a fireplace and upstairs on the third floor is the bedroom. The bedroom is a loft so it's without a door, and the stairs are not suitable for very small children.

About the host
Hosted by Luca
I am a kind, laid back guy that loves to meet new people. I travel often and enjoy getting out in the world and experiencing new things. My passion is music and I play several instruments. I like to talk about geography and history and show people around my area. I am a very patient and friendly person. My motto is "why do today what you can put off until tomorrow?" And did I mention I have a good sense of humor, especially for a Swiss!

Visitors can enjoy the tranquility of its narrow lanes while still being just ten minutes from the vibrant centers of Locarno, Switzerland, and Cannobio, Italy.
