About this apartment rental
Nestled in the heart of the Italian Alps, this small and comfortable apartment house is a charming holiday rental set at an elevation of 1,700 metres above sea level in Cepina, Italy. The property is a 3-storey detached building constructed in 1970 and is surrounded by trees, offering a secluded, quiet, and elevated position on a slope that ensures both privacy and a deep connection with the surrounding natural landscape. Situated above Oga, the property benefits from Wi-Fi internet connectivity, keeping you connected even in this peaceful mountain retreat. Parking is available directly at the house, though spaces are limited in number, and a public parking area can be found just 50 metres away along the road. Please be aware that during winter months, snow chains are required for motor access via the mountain road, making a car strongly recommended for your stay.
Outdoors
The property shares a terraced garden with other guests, offering a welcoming outdoor space framed by the natural woodland setting that surrounds the building.

The wooded environment creates a naturally shaded and serene backdrop, ideal for unwinding after a day of skiing or hiking in the surrounding alpine terrain.
