Lo Reinard
After long searches, we arrived in Venoz, a small village at 1800m above sea level in the Saint Berthelemy Valley in Val d'Aosta. We immediately felt in love with it and bought what we call our little den. We have always thought we could change our lives and the opportunity came when we decided to buy an apartment in the village that we completely renovated and decided to use as a holiday home.
The name "Lo Reinard" - the fox, in the Patuà language of the Valley - comes from a story told to us by the old people of the place. In fact, it is said that during the renovation of the house, the laborers who bivouacked there, left the leftover remains of dinner on a plate outside the door in the evening. The next morning, however, the dish disappeared and then reappeared in the evening. This went on for days until they decided to lie in wait to find the person responsible for these "thefts". They then realized that it was a fox, always the same one, who did the "shopping" every evening.
The apartment enjoys a splendid 180° panoramic view of the Graian Alps.
The renovation involved the complete removal of gas in favor eco-green electricity for both heating and cooking.
It is composed of an entrance door that leads to the living/dining area and the "reading" from where, through a door window, you exit onto a delightful balcony with a retractable wooden table to enjoy the view even during meals.
Small kitchen equipped with oven, induction hob and dishwasher.
A hallway leads to the bathroom with shower and suspended sanitary fixtures.
The double bedroom consists of a chest of drawers, bedside tables and wardrobe with mirror.
The apartment is located a few steps from the planetarium and the astronomical observatory of Lignan and close to the cross-country track in a single 30km ring of the Gran Tor.
From here there are endless walks for beginners and excursions for the more skilled, even via ferratas for the bravest.
About 30 minutes away is the train station and the Nus motorway exit.

After years of airport work, we decided that we would change our lives sooner or later. And here we are finally realizing our dream. Made of small things, real relationships, genuine life with milk and cheese taken from local farmers, up to the vegetables that we will start to grow.
Always lovers of the mountains, almost tireless walkers, avid readers, theater and crossword enthusiasts.
