Vacation Homes in Maloja

We really liked the lovely, clean, historic village of Castasegna. The apartment building is far enough above the highway and customs buildings, so that you have quiet. Though a church bell chimes on the hour, it is far enough away that it is not distressing. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare our own meals. The bed was very comfortable: firm enough, but also soft. The pillows were great: supportive and soft. It was wonderful to live for five days in the elegance of a family home. The living room and bedroom walls are covered in finely-crafted wood. Though the location is at a very low elevation, you get nice breezes coming down the valley and flowing at cross-angles to keep you cool. We hiked several days up near Majola Pass. We stayed down lower here at Castasegna to save a lot of money, and get a larger apartment. You can drive down valley just five minutes (into Italy) to a small and well-stocked grocery store. Be sure to drive one evening up to village of Soglio. Walk the easy paths out of town (upvalley) for a magnificent view of the Bregaglia Alps.
