We are in the heart of the Gran Sasso-Monti della Laga National Park, where the mountains, the lake and the exceptional naturalistic heritage of the places offer unique shows in every season.
The inn was born in Mascioni, a small fraction of Campotosto, where once stood the grandparents’ house, elementary teachers of the small town.
