Nido del Picchio Chalet

There are places that speak for themselves, and this is one of them. We are in Clavais, a village of forty-nine inhabitants perched at the foot of the Zoncolan, in the heart of Carnia. All around are meadows that slope down toward the valley, woods, mountains, and a silence that you can feel. It is the right place for those seeking true contact with nature, a slower pace, and peace. The space The chalet that welcomes you is not just any building: the owner built it with his own hands over a period of fifteen years, following traditional techniques, salvaging old wood, and taking care of every joint and every detail with the patience of someone who builds to last. The result is an all-wood environment, warm and inviting, where every surface tells a story of artisanal craftsmanship: from the exposed beams to the hand-painted panels featuring traditional Alpine motifs. The apartment is completely independent and offers ample space designed to accommodate up to eight guests, making it the ideal solution for large families or groups of friends who want to enjoy the mountain experience together without sacrificing comfort. The living area is dominated by the large living room with its distinctive fireplace, the warm heart of the house on winter evenings, flanked by the fully equipped kitchen and dining area. However, the real star is the spectacular rooftop, accessible from both the living room and the master bedroom. A large and private space overlooking the valley and the mountains of Carnia, perfect for having breakfast surrounded by silence, having lunch outdoors, enjoying a sunset aperitif, or simply relaxing while admiring the view. The sleeping area includes two spacious double bedrooms. One of them is a real family room, thanks to the presence of a comfortable sofa bed and direct access to the panoramic terrace. A second sofa bed is located in the living room, allowing you to comfortably accommodate up to eight people. The apartment is completed by a large bathroom, made with the same natural materials that characterize the entire chalet, where wood and stone blend in perfect harmony with the mountain environment. Outside the door is the countryside: trails and walks start directly from the chalet, through forests, meadows, and unspoiled views. In winter, you can reach Ravascletto in about seven minutes by car, from where the cable car leads to the Zoncolan ski area. Ovaro, with shops and all the main services, is just a few minutes away. An authentic retreat, designed for those who want to slow down, breathe in the mountains, and share special moments with the people they love. Guest access The apartment is one of the five units that make up the chalet: the interior spaces are for the exclusive use of our guests, while the surrounding nature – meadows, paths, and woods – is there, ready to welcome you for walks, excursions, and moments of absolute tranquility. Other things to note This is not just an apartment: it's a place that has managed to make a name for itself. The chalet was chosen as the set for the well-known Italian television program "4 Hotel" with Bruno Barbieri and was also featured on "Linea Verde," a long-standing program dedicated to the excellence and authentic regions of our country. Over the years, it has welcomed distinguished guests and personalities linked to culture and the local area, attracted by an atmosphere that is really difficult to find elsewhere. The reason is simple: we are in the heart of Carnia, in one of those rare corners that have remained authentic, where the mountains, the silence, and the artisanal wisdom of those who built this place still coexist intact. A little gem, recognized as such by those who have been fortunate enough to discover it. Registration Details IT030067B4BYEGYLLG
