— Il Sàrperi

The coolest house in the village.

This farmhouse on two floors overlooks the central lawn of the square, standing next to the old olive tree at the heart of Gello. Its upper entrance opens directly into the first-floor living room, anchored by a large stone fireplace, two armchairs, and a lit bateau sofa that can be converted to a single bed on request.

Two bedrooms open off the living room, both facing the valley beneath the canopy of trees. One has two single beds, the other a French-size double. A complete bathroom and the stairway to the ground floor complete this upper level.

The ground floor features a third French-bed bedroom, and a comfortable kitchen with a dining table for six, sofa, armchairs and a second working fireplace. A two-piece bathroom sits neatly under the stairway.

"Both floor-to-ceiling door windows — from the living room and from the bedroom — open onto the terracotta-paved terrace facing the valley, shaded by the tall leaves of acacia trees and fitted with table, chairs and a hammock."
