Where to sleep: Issogne

The B&B Il Pellegrino is located along the Via Francigena, the historic pilgrims' route, in the old village of Issogne picturesquely situated at the foot of the mountains and best known for its charming Renaissance castle.

The house is part of Issogne's history: first it was the village's primary school for almost two decades and then a hardware shop. The renovation was carried out following the principles of bio-architecture, using entirely eco-friendly materials.

The furnishings are a harmonious combination of modern and antique, everything here exudes the charm of history, but there is no lack of modern comforts.

The "Al Maniero" restaurant offers a wide selection of traditional Val d'Aosta dishes which vary according to the season and in summer the vegetables are picked in the family's garden.
But in order to savour Issogne's "magic" atmosphere even more, you should stay the night in the warm, comfortable rooms where silence is conjured up with birdsong.
All the ingredients are there to make your stay a pleasant experience: good food and wines, nice people, enthusiasm and professionalism.
