The Blue House, 1912 · The New Barn, 1869

Five rooms in Viscri

Five rooms, in two buildings. Two are in the Blue House, built in 1912 by Johann Dootz. Three are in the New Barn, a wooden barn from 1869, converted so it can be lived in. We have been restoring them since 2016, with craftsmen from the area and materials made the old way: painted tiles, handmade bricks and roof tiles, oak beams.

There are only five rooms, so they fill up early, especially in summer and at weekends.
