La Serra - Bed & Breakfast in Veneto
via Frontin, 94/A, 32026 Borgo Valbelluna, Belluno
Veneto,
Italia
Chiara has the top floor of the house and you have the run of the rest. Guests can lounge for as long as they like with a cup of tea or glass of wine in the sunny sitting room or the 'greenhouse' room with big windows looking onto the garden. There's also a cinema room and yoga space in the newly renovated annex. Pots overflow with geraniums, an apricot tree produces fruit for your breakfast jam and there's a side portico for eating out.
Breakfast is organic and almost completely local. There's a small dairy in the hamlet - walk over to see how traditional ricotta is made, or taste creamy local Latteria. Spend the day exploring this most beautiful and less travelled area - walk into Trichiana for a good pizzeria and plenty of shops or join several walking trails, one to the river Piave.
Chiara recommends Al Borgo for supper. Return to south facing bedrooms, one with a private terrace, and bathrooms with spacious rain showers. Sleep peacefully, it's quiet here.

Local points of interest from Chiara Alpago-Novello:
Punti d'interesse locali da
Chiara Alpago-Novello:
- There are several walks starting from the house, no need to drive. But if you feel like driving, the possibilities are endless: easy, short walks or trekking and hiking in the Dolomites, Unesco's heritage, everyone can find its own pace.
- This is Dolomites‘ Kingdom. Alta Via 1 and 2 land in Belluno and Feltre respectively. The first one connects Lake Braies in Val Pusteria (Bz) with Belluno and the latter Bressanone (Bz) with Feltre. Nearby are two important rock gyms for free climbing.
- Less than 7 km from la Serra there is Mel, high on the hill, voted one of the most beautiful villages in Italy. At 22 km you’ll find the town of Feltre, with its characteristic walled citadel. Belluno, and the unique front on PIave's river, is 12 km away.
- On the way to Feltre a stop in Pedavena, a brewery founded in 1897, is highly recommended. Book a visit to the brewery and or have lunch in the restaurant. Try Centenario beer, served only on tap. And browse the shop for beers, local food and souvenirs.
- Belluno’s Valley is scattered with lakes and streams, which often have carved deep and spectacular gorges. Less than 6 km from la Serra you find Brent de l’Art, a series of canyons, spectacular in any season. Guided tours are available, on request.
- There are many (and counting) very good local wineries I can recommend, but a visit to the Prosecco area takes 30 minutes by car. While you are there, don't miss the extraordinary Gypsotheca and Antonio Canova Museum, in Possagno. just 10 minutes away.
