Challand-Saint-Victor is located in the Ayas Valley (one of the 11 lateral valleys in Aosta Valley), which culminates in Monte Rosa, the second highest mountain in Europe. The village itself has three restaurants, a cafe, a post office, a food store, and a convenience store, all within walking distance. In Verrés, four kilometers away, there are supermarkets, many small stores (butcher, baker, etc.) and an outdoor food market every Monday morning. Champoluc, a ski resort and start-off point for mountain climbing, is 30 minutes from the villa. Other attractions within Aosta Valley include Cervinia (Matterhorn and ski resort), Aosta (roman ruins), Issogne and Fenis medieval castles, Courmayeur (Mont Blanc), and the Gran Paradiso and Mt. Avic National Parks. Day trips can easily be made to the Italian Lake district, Piedmont wine-growing area (Barolo, Barbaresco) or Turin.

Stuart and Maya were excellent hosts, very friendly and with a good local knowledge. They showed us every place worth visiting and all the nice hiking trails. The apartment was nice and big, well equipped witjh everuthing you would ever need. They also brought us fresh veggies from their own garden in the morning.

We had the best vacation ever, the surroundings are increadible and the little village is nice and quiet. We would definitely recommend this apartment to anyone.

Paradise Found

Janet and Bill Calgary, Alberta, Canada
Review Submitted: July 13, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
Our stay at Challand Saint Victor was the high point of a 4 week stay in Italy. The appartment was immaculately clean, very well maintained and well equipped with everything you would need in the kitchen. It was a wonderful base from which to explore the whole Aosta Valley, including Aosta town, Mont Blanc, the Matterhorn and Gran Paradiso National Park. Our hosts were extremely knowledgeable about the area and very happy to share that information with us. There is so much to do and see in the Aosta area that we found 6 days not nearly enough time to explore the area. There are many valleys to drive and discover each with its own unique traditions, history and incredible beauty. There are villages, castles and well preserved Roman ruins dating back thousands of years. The food and wine available was fresh and bountiful. We look forward to returning and spending much more time in the area. We feel we found a Shangri-la. I would recommend this area to anyone who loves history, mountain areas and alpine beauty. The appartment was a perfect home away from home and would highly reccommend it as a wonderful alternative to staying in a hotel. Many thanks to Stuart and Maya for their incredible hospitality.
