Description:
The holiday home Piccolo is located in the centre of the romantic Saastal at 1600 m altitude at the foot of the Michabel mountain range. This mountain range includes "the Dom" (4545 m), the highest mountain of Switzerland. The cottage Piccolo consists of a large apartment (approx. 160 m2) for 10 persons and a studio (approx. 35 m2) for 2 persons. The cottage is located between Saas Grund and Saas Almagell in a nice rural environment. You can't drive with your car until the holiday home, but the houseowner will help you with your luggage. You can park your car on a parkingplace at ca. 150m from the holiday home. The famous resort Saas Fee is only 4 km away.
