Ein kleines Paradies. Simona betreut ihre Gäste wunderbar. Ein Höhepunkt ist das Frühstück morgens im Garten mit regionalen Produkten und hausgemachtem Brot. Eindeutig zu empfehlen.
Sehr außergewöhnliche Lage fuer einen auswärtigen. Historische Location, super freundliche und hilfsbereite Gastgeberin Simona und morgens ein selbst gemachtes Frühstück im Garten oder der Küche. Ich komme gerne wieder
Simonas B&B ist einfach ein Traum! Die alten, wunderschönen Gebäude und die Umgebung mit den Weinreben sind einzigartig. Das Frühstück, welches mit Produkten vom Garten und dem Wald sowie selber zubereiteten Kuchen etc. einem am morgen im wunderschönen Garten erwartet, ist umwerfend gut. Ihre herzliche und gastfreundliche Art sowie die guten Tips bereichern den Aufenthalt und versprühen eine Atmosphäre in der man sich rundum wohl fühlt. Vielen Dank!
Trovo il B&B di Simona dopo averne visionati tanti. Mi colpiscono le foto perché sembra molto carino. Devo dire che in realta è anche meglio di quello che si vede in foto. Tutto perfetto. Posizione ottima. Colazione perfetta, stanza accogliente e letto ottimo. Tutto pulito perfettamente. E intorno alla casa molto verde con un bellissimo vigneto. Complimenti davvero a Simona che è davvero Superhost, molto gentile e accogliente. In gamba a fare tutto e a farti sentire a casa.Torneremo sicuramente, GRAZIE!

Die Atmosphäre in diesen alten Gebäuden und wie sie renoviert wurden. Die Lage ist einmalig mit wunderbarer Aussicht. Das Frühstück mit besonders feinen Speisen von der Vermieterin selbst gebacken und gekocht übertrifft jedes herkömmliche Frühstück. Wir wurden verwöhnt!!!
You couldn’t ask for a better place to unwind and relax. Absolutely stunning home, property, views and service. It is an Italian escape like no other and I can’t wait to be back very soon.
“What can one say? This is a little slice of heaven. The initial email communication was pleasantly informal and clear, regular and concise, and had me feeling at ease before my arrival. The beautiful area of this idyllic hamlet strewn with grape vines, through to the mountain views rolling into the distance, this place fits me perfectly. The homely rooms which respect the period of the house but with little personal additions from Simona’s worldly collections hit the mark perfectly as do the common sense requirements – a hairdryer in the room and a squeegee in the sizeable shower (anywhere that has a squeegee for ‚wiping down‘ the shower has a head start in my book straight away!), this is more for me an experience than just your average Bed and Breakfast. There are even little pillows stuffed with (locally reaped, no doubt) dried herbs adorning the pillows to keep the rooms fragrant and fresh. The breakfast was quaintly delicious (a wonderful, local addition of goats cheese made from one of Simona’s friends up by the Swiss border gives you an idea of the thoughtful touches at Uvablu), the table setting sublimely divine under the pergola, and just, well, the feel of the place, which can neither be described in words or pictures is something you’ll really need to experience for yourself. There is wifi too, but using my phone felt like this was a viral intrusion which I had brought into this peaceful, rural and sumptuous environment. Bring a book – work is certainly best left at home. The crowning glory however is Simona herself. If you’re the kind of person who is more interested in listening to others over talking about yourself, she is a wonderfully engaging soul and certainly worth inviting in to share a slice of home-made banana cake with (in any of the languages she is proficient in!). Cannot recommend this place enough if you want to decompress and be a part of life once again. Thank you Simona.”
“Simona is a great host, quick to respond prior to the visit and very hospitable during it. The house is in a lovely location but the outdoor breakfast was the highlight for me; most of it homemade, all of it delicious. Recommended.”
Simona is a fantastic host and the property, set amidst the wineyards is a great location. She is very knowledeable about the Ossola Valley. Faboulous Breakfast with locally made products. I will go back in Spring or Summer to take full advantage of the surroundings.
Le casa è un suggestivo edificio del ‚700 ristrutturato con grande cura e attenzione, con un gusto per l’arredamento davvero delizioso. La posizione in collina sopra la valle da adito ad una gradevole vista da tutte le camere, il tutto immersi nelle vigne del Prunent e all’interno di un abitato di case in pietra sempre del ‚700. La proprietaria è inoltre gentilissima e vi preparerà lei una buonissima colazione.

Ambiente molto caldo e pulito, restaurato divinamente, ideale per chi apprezza ambienti rustici dal sapore antico, il bagno in comune è l’unico dettaglio che mi lasciava dubbioso, ma devo dire che non è stato per niente un problema in quanto la pulizia a qualsiasi ora, era impeccabile, colazione sana e buona con prodotti fatti in casa e utilizzo di materie prime di alto livello, ottima la marmellata di uva fragola rigorosamente fatta dalla proprietaria nel complesso se torno nei pressi di Domodossola ci tornerò sicuramente senza alcun dubbio la bellezza del posto unito alla cortesia assoluta della proprietaria ha reso la nostra permanenza davvero piacevole… Consigliatissimo
Das Zimmer ist wunderschön und das Frühstück absolut grossartig. Simona ist eine ganz nette und aufmerksame Gastgeberin. Ich habe mich rund um wohl gefühlt.

Das Frühstück war super lecker, sehr schön angerichtet draussen im Gärten unter den Weinreben. Simona war sehr nett und hilfsbereit, hat sogar für uns beim Restaurant angerufen. Die Unterkunft ist zwar etwas ausserhalb von Domodossola, aber gut per öff. Verkehr und zu Fuss zu erreichen, ebenfalls Bars und Restaurants. Das Haus und das Zimmer sind wunderschön und wahnsinnig schön und ruhig eingebettet in Weinreben.
„Very clean and beautiful house, with 1700 years of history is still preserved classical and the atmosphere! Beautiful like a fairy tale world in general, Simona is a studious friend, very good at communication, and gave us a lot of help, in the house to take care of the kind, in the morning to provide us with all-natural health food, although we stayed only a day, but we cannot forget. I believe that in the future if I have the opportunity to come to Italy, I will choose to bring my friends here to stay one night, This house is great!
Dear Simona,
We would like to thank you for your wonderful hospitality, and for providing us with such a lovely place to stay. The room (in fact the whole house!) is really characterful and beautifully presented, and we loved the fact that we had mountain views out of all of our bedroom windows. We really enjoyed our breakfasts in the garden too with your tasty homemade jams and local produce. Such an attractive and peaceful place to start the day.
We hope you have a great summer, and that the temperature comes back down a little rather than getting any hotter!
Sono stata tre giorni da Simona: arrivata stanca e affaticata dalla vita di città mi sono sentita subito meglio. La casa è meravigliosa e arredata con ottimo gusto in ogni dettaglio, il verde della vigna e delle montagne mette di buon umore e rilassa, il paesino a mezz’ora di passeggiata è un gioiello. E soprattutto Simona è un’ospite di cuore e ti fa sentire subito a casa.
Nella stanza rosa ci sono i libri che conosco bene, libri da viaggiatrice e da persona sempre in cerca – e si vede che ha già trovato il suo posto nel mondo.
In più, la colazione è fantastica – viaggiatrice e cuoca sopraffina!
Grazie Simona, torno presto.
“I only stayed for a couple of nights, but wish I could have stayed longer. Simona was so welcoming. She fed me delicious home cooked food – just what I needed after a long bike ride. I spent the day sitting in her garden, kept company by her cats, overlooking the valley. Perfect. ”
A place to be! I have been at Simona’s place once before – she is a very kind host and her breakfast is delicious. This time the grapes were ready to eat yumm!! The rooms have enough space. Bring a book and relax in the garden or discover the surroundings with a hike or by bike. Highly recommend to stay at UvaBlu!
“La colazione è stata fantastica, tutti prodotti genuini preparati dalla sig.ra che gestisce il B&B. Luogo incantevole, silenzioso immerso nel verde dei vigneti. L’ambiente molto accogliente ricco di particolari interessanti inseriti dalla proprietaria. I libri in camera… Peccato aver soggiornato solo una notte. Ma se possibile ci ritorneremo.

Uvablu – wir kommen ganz sicher wieder!
+ “Traditionelles Steingebäude mit Charakter, liebevoll und geschmackvoll eingerichtete Zimmer. Simona ist eine herzliche und wunderbare Gastgeberin und das Frühstück ist enfach spitze!”
La description, les photos et autres commentaires sont absolument exacts. L’un des plus beau B&B que nous avons vu. Placé au milieu des vignes en pergola posées sur des piliers en granite, ce petit coin de paradis, très calme nous a ravi. Simona a été une hôte parfaite en nous donnant conseil pour les restaurants et le shopping. Le petit déjeuner était absolument délicieux avec des produits de la région et uniquement des choses faites maison.
Simona was incredibly kind and welcoming. The location of this b&b is stunning (totally worth the short hike) and breakfast was delicious. I had a lovely time wandering around the area and working at a little desk with gorgeous view. When my laptop charger broke, she let me borrow her own. thanks so much!
Uvablu è un posto speciale, per tutto: la casa di pietra, immersa nel verde dei vigneti; il pergolato fuori, con il tavolone di pietra dove si mangiano cose squisite preparate da Simona; la colazione con pane e marmellate fatte in casa – perché Simona dice che quando va in giro non le vanno certe cose industriali, quindi non le può certo offrire ai suoi ospiti!
Le camere poi sono una delizia, colori e arredi ti fanno venire voglia di starci e ritornarci, su e giù per la bellissima scala in pietra.
E la vista, il panorama che si gode dalle finestre è una meraviglia, da qualsiasi lato lo si guardi.
Simona è una ‚padrona di casa‘ che ti fa sentire ‚a casa‘, per tutto.
Grazie Simona, ritornerò di sicuro nella tua bella Uvablu! 🙂
“We were here for two nights and it was absolutely great and we can only recommend it. The host – Simona – is very friendly and helps you whenever she can. For us this started already before we arrived. We told her that we'd come to Domodossola via the bus and she told us she could pick us up because she had to go in Domodsoola anyway – so we didn’t have to go the house by ourselves the first time we were there. Thanks again! Further you can ask her about tips where you could go hiking etc. and she’ll provide you with good information. The stay itself is just gorgeous. The rooms are very comfy and clean. The same goes for the shared bathroom (which is one floor below). The bathroom also has a nice shower in which even tall persons (1.93 cm here 😉 ) can shower without problems. It’s also quiet in this place since it’s not in the city. If you want to go to a restaurant there are some nearby – we always went to the same: Birreria Del Vichingo. The food was very good 🙂 By the way: If you come by public transport (train). You can take the train to Trontano (direction Locarno) from Domodossola and get off in Trontano. You then have to walk down the street to the B&B – which takes about ~15mins. But it’s a nice walk since there is not much traffic up there. Also: If you go there don’t miss it to do the walk to Marone which is an abandoned village near Trontano (if you are starting in Trontano be sure to take the mulino way (red signs and then follow the signs to Marone once you are in the woods), so you don’t have to walk all the way on the main-street.”

“Simona was so lovely! I had such a great time staying with her. The house is clean and peaceful, with a great view of the valley and mountains from the bedroom window. I had many lazy afternoons sitting under the grape vines in the garden. The breakfasts were fantastic: homemade breads, jams and a new cake every day. She was really knowledgeable about the local area and directed me towards the best local restaurants and hiking trails, even hiking with me one day. For someone who doesn’t speak a word of Italian, it was the perfect place for me to stay. Thank you so much for looking after me Simona! ”

“I visited Simona’s BnB while biking through Northern Italy and stayed for a few nights. The location was strategically located, only a half hour bike ride from Domodossola train station in the middle of the beautiful Ossola Valley. The house and grounds was a characteristic villa of old style, impeccably clean and organized. Simona was extremely welcoming, going out of her way to assist myself and other guests to ensure a comfortable stay and to help them with their travel plans. While I was there, I saw her assisting guests in several languages, English, Italian, French, and Spanish. She is a native of Northern Italy with extensive international travel experience and so was able to advise on both local points of interests as well as discuss international topics. She was an invaluable resource for my travel plans. The vineyards and gardens are a fantastic place to relax after a long day of bike touring. There is wi-fi throughout most of the house and garden, so it was possible for me to sit in the garden one day and catch up on correspondences and connect to work. I recommend Simona’s BnB to anyone looking to explore the Ossola Valley! ”

We arrived to Simona’s place following two recommendation from friends, and it was absolutely gorgeous! Unfortunately, we could only stay for one night. Simona is a great host, explained everything we needed to know and was friendly. She prepared a homemade breakfast and chatted with us about the region. later she showed us the vineyards and suggested a walking tour in the area. The room had everything we needed. We are definitely coming back again!!
Bellissima casa, stanza ampia, molto accogliente e ben arredata con mobili in stile ossolano, dehor ampio con pergolato da sfruttare nella bella stagione. Cucina con bellissimo focolare antico. Il gestore, Simona è molto simpatica ed è piacevole parlare con lei, si vede che è appassionata dei questo lavoro e desidera che gli ospiti siano soddisfatti del servizio offerto. Ha preparato ottimi dolci: torta di carote e lo strudel. Il panorama è ampio e i vigneti sono sparsi ovunque. Buon punto di partenza per escursioni nella Val d’Ossola.
Pernottare da uvablu è stata esperienza indimenticabile. Silenzio e profumi, ma sopratutto il silenzio delle cose e la cortesia squisita di Simona. Squisita come la sua colazione. Userò il b&b come base per girare la val d’Ossola, sperando di fare in tempo.
The old palazzo just next to the little house is not visible in the images. It’s the centre of a huge estate with wine slopes and a charming terrace overlooking the Val d’Ossola. It’s a calm and beautiful place. Simona serves great breakfast with selfmade bread and jellys along with strong Italian coffee and at evening her first steps in making a very honest and rustical landwine. She recommended good Osterias nearby, welcomed us late at night on the arrival and even overlooked us sleeping too long on our checkout-day. In short: An absolutely perfect stay, thanks a lot!
“From the very first moment we felt at home at Simona’s house – just when we arrived we were having tea and cantucci together, talked about travel experiences and what to do in the area. The red room is absolutely beautiful and very cozy, and we enjoyed our tasty breakfast (always with freshly brewed coffee, homemade warm bread and cake – everything absolutely delicious!) in Simona’s company. It was so nice and we found not only a home in Pello, but also a friend. Thank you very much Simona, we will come back!”

“Séjour formidable! Le Bed & Breakfast Uvablu est un endroit charmant et très bucolique. Situé au milieu des vignes et avec une vue imprenable sur la vallée, l’endroit est magique. La chambre est très confortable, avec une jolie décoration. Les espaces communs sont décorés avec goût. Le wifi est compris et accessible de partout ce qui est très appréciable. Le petit déjeuner était très bon avec confiture, pain et gâteau fait maison! La propriétaire est très accueillante et parle très bien le français!!”
Die Gastfreundlichkeit und die Flexibilitaet der Besitzerin, – das ausgezeichnete Frühstück mit hausgemachter Konfituere und Kuchen, – die ruhige Lage, – das rustikale Zimmer.”
Ho scoperto UVABLU, per caso, dovendo visitare la VALLE VERZASCA nel canton Ticino. Fra i B&B nella zona, quello di Simona mi ha da subito dato un senso di serietà.
Premetto che ci sono rimasto solo una notte…purtroppo (ci sarei rimasto anche di più).
UVABLU è situato a 4 km da DOMODOSSOLA ed è allocato in una zona tranquillissima di PELLO di TRONTANO (Verbania).
Si trova in mezzo alle viti dove regna la pace totale.
Mi sono subito trovato benissimo e l’ottima accoglienza ha avuto il suo apice nel trovare uva ed acqua in camera.
UVABLU è un B&B in una casa vecchia ristrutturata, con solo 3 camere ed un bagno comune, bagno ammodernato e molto bello.
Non c’è TV, non c’è l’ascensore, ma in compenso un WIFI molto veloce.
La colazione è senza dubbio la migliore che abbia mai fatto, abbondante e con cose preparate personalmente dalla brava SIMONA.
Dovevo ripartire per le otto e poi vista la pace ho ritardato di quasi due ore.
Ovviamente CONSIGLIATO
Simona was a super host, welcoming and friendly, charming B&B in the middle of the vineyards, homemade breakfast with a different cake prepared by simona every day. She was very helpful in showing us what to visit and where to go. I really want to come back and definitely recommend her.
Uvablue no es un Bed and Breakfast…; es decir, es eso y mucho más: es un entorno idílico rodeado de montañas, un sitio para relajarse y descansar, una antiquísima casa de piedra del siglo XVIII, es la madera que cruje en el interior de dicha casa, es una cocina con aromas a café con leche y especias acompañados de historias, de donde salen panes, mermeladas y tartas caseras. También es un lugar cálido, pulcro y con detalles en cada rincón de la casa, y con unas vistas espectaculares desde una pequeña ventana de una habitación… Es todo esto, pero fundamentalmente es Simona, quien con toda la atención y el cariño lleva adelante el Bed and Breakfast y atiende a las personas que se alojan en él como una verdadera casa de invitados.
Simona was very accommodating and went out of her way to make us feel welcome. We arrived fairly late on a very hot day, she helped us with our luggage and provided water quickly. She even set up a baby cot for our 10 month old son. There was a restaurant near by that was suitable for a late evening snack (10:00 pm) on Sunday. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience in a beautiful setting. The fresh breakfast with homemade jam, bread and cake were superb. I can highly recommend Simona’s place to any traveler looking for an original experience.
Simona, ihr Garten, ihr Haus, die Katzen, das Frühstück, die Umgebung… alles war vom Feinsten! Wir kommen bestimmt bald wieder, unterdessen legen wir diesen magischen Ort allen ans Herz!
“Beyond the absolutely beautiful location of the quaint B&B, the host, Simona was beyond amazing and hospitable. She made the stay even more special and her cooking is amazing. I can’t say enough nice things about my experience- I would recommend to anyone.”
Die Bilder haben nicht zuviel versprochen – ach was, vor Ort sogar noch schöner!!! Sportlich mit dem Velo auf dem Berg angekommen haben wir die Aussicht sehr genossen. Simona hat uns sehr herzlich empfangen und super Tips gegeben. Das Haus und die Gästezimmer sind sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet – mit Liebe zum Detail. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Besonders zu erwähnen ist das köstliche Frühstück mit homemade Kuchen, Brot sowie den einzigartigen Marmeladen – dazu noch italienischer Kaffee – besser kann ein Start in den Tag nicht beginnen. Wir kommen gerne wieder (wenn die Trauben reif sind) 😉
This experience was the best thing that happened to us in this trip. Not only was the scenery and atmosphere perfect, Simona’s personality, philosophy and charm were something we’ll take with us forever. If you’re ever in the area, you simply have to drop by. My recommendation is to just stay around the villa, read a book, do some yoga, walk around the Alps and relax. Also, get ready for a really good cup of coffee.
Simona has created an incredible idyllic experience in this charming corner of the Italian alps that rings true and authentic to her personality and her life philosophy. She was very prompt in responding to my booking request, sent precise instructions and was available to walk out to the street when I called on reaching the last block late in the night. Both the property and Simona have inspiring stories. The room was very comfortable. The bathroom is very modern and yet affords with a massive window with a view to the vineyards and snowy peaks beyond. The best part of the stay is the breakfast spread that Simona lays out with care and with bread and jams created from scratch. Simona is an attentive and caring host with a great knowledge of the town and the area around.
Nous avons passé un très agréable séjour à Uvablu. La vue était superbe, le calme vraiment très appréciable. Et Simona est une hôte géniale!
A refaire et encore merci pour tout, Simona!

Nous avons été chaleureusement accueillis par Simona et avons beaucoup apprécié notre séjour à Pello. Le B&B est situé à un endroit idyllique, non loin de la petite ville de Domodossola. Les chambres sont jolies, calmes et décorées avec beaucoup d’amour du détail. Un délicieux petit-déjeuner fait-maison vient rajouter à la beauté du lieu une qualité de vivre en plus!
Unser zweiter Besuch war wiederum sehr erholsam. Simona hat uns herzlich empfangen und begleitet. Dieser von Simona liebevoll gepflegte Ort hat einen ganz besonderen Charme. Das altehrwürdige Haus, das in seiner ursprünglichen Art bewahrt wurde, besticht durch seine Einfachheit. Hier und in der Umgebung kommt man gerne zur Ruhe.

Après une rapide découverte de la maison et un accueil très chaleureux, nous nous sommes promenés dans les vignes environnantes, et avons découvert de superbes paysages et randos. La maison est confortable (nous étions à trois dans deux chambres spacieuses), et le petit-dej excellent! L’hôte a de très bons conseils gastronomiques et touristiques, et saura vous guider selon vos envies.
“Wunderbares antikes Haus, sehr freundliche und hilfsbereite Gastgeberin, zwei süsse Katzen, ruhiges schönes zimmer, wir haben so tief wie selten geschlafen und kommen gerne wieder”
Sono stato ospite in questo luogo meraviglioso di pace e tranquillità. Il respiro è negli occhi, i suoni arrivano al cuore, le immagini sullo schermo degli occhi rimangono nell’anima.
Sei accolto con il sorriso, una buona tisana e voglia di comunicare.
L’alloggio merita con la sua semplicità di campagna ma di gusto molto fine.
Vorrò ritornare, un abbraccio. Dario
Hacen 25 años y un suspiro trasnochado, me bajé del tren en una localidad desconocida, solitaria, lejana de mis horizontes viajeros, ausente y melancólica como mis pensamientos en aquel ayer, rodeada de montañas, viñedos, nieve y casitas hechas de piedra como en la época medieval.
Habitada por tribus celtas, invadida por bárbaros y gibelinos, conquistada por romanos y etruscos en tiempos pasados, hoy la reconquistan turistas suizos, holandeses, belgas, gitanos y americanos..
Una dama pequeña, de frágil figura, cabellos grises, de mirada tímida y sonrisa recatada me esperaba con un halo de tristeza en aquel anden del olvido.
Yo era el único pasajero que se bajaba en aquel lugar, era el invitado de aquella dama de mirada triste. El lugar se llamaba Pello di Trontano, y pertenece a la región del Piamonte italiano, famiglia de la provincia de Verbano- Cusio-Osola.
Cruzamos las lineas del tren y entramos en su casita de piedra, de donde emanaba el aroma de una pasta que se estaba cociendo a fuego lento y me daba la bienvenida acompañado de un vino típico de la región. Los sonidos plañideros de un fado salían sigilosamente de una radio pequeña que acompañaba la soledad de aquel medio día.
Estaba a 520 metros de felicidad, en lo alto de un valle, en el centro de los Alpes, con una vista panorámica de Domodossola, la localidad mas importante en la región y hoy en día una de las principales vías de comunicación entre Italia y Suiza junto al paso Simplon lugar de atracción turística internacional.
La dama de mirada triste me llevó a conocer los alrededores, me mostró la iglesia Dei santi Gervasio que destacaba en el fondo del valle, el camino que lleva a Suiza, sentir los latidos de mi corazón, respirar los olores del campo, curiosear en tiendas de familia con quesos y vinos artesanales, observar casas antiguas construidas de piedra en siglos pasados que reflejan el orgullo de la cultura ossolana.
A medida que continuábamos nuestra pasegiatta mi anfitriona era saludada con cariño y respeto por los lugareños a lo que ella contestaba risueña ¡Buon giorno Catalina! O se detenía para una pequeña charla (una chiachiara italiana) y me presentaba como su gran invitado a lo que yo hacia honor expresando mi gran admiración por todo lo que me rodeaba.
Me contaba que en una de esas casas hechas de piedra, pasó parte de su adolescencia y juventud. Mas tarde sus hijos jugarían entre aquellas piedras antiguas sin llegar a imaginar que un día una de esas casas del 1800 se convertiría en el B&B Uvablu.
El Uvablu existe gracias al tezon, esfuerzo y energía magna de su dueña y directora Simona, viajera culta, amante del arte, de la música, de la gastronomía, poliglota, habla varios idiomas incluyendo el argentino, quien se ha convertido en una experta en crear mostos y vinos alpinos.
Simona le da ese toque personal y familiar al Uvablu que lo distingue de los demás con una atención personalizada y familiar hacia sus clientes y que en corto tiempo se ha ganado un lugar de referencia en el mundo de la hostelería.
La decoración de las habitaciones es simple pero de buen gusto y acorde con la antigüedad de la casa donde se mezcla la piedra y la madera noble con tonos suaves y cálidos en sus paredes.
El Uvablu está ubicado en la parte alta de un valle, rodeado de verde, con una vista extraordinaria de los Alpes, en una zona de absoluta paz y tranquilidad. Se pueden dar paseos por los alrededores y visitar Domodossola como centro principal, una ciudad rica en arquitectura, situada a pocos kilómetros de distancia, donde se puede acceder a un viaje panorámico en el tren Centovalli que une Domodossola con Locarno
El Uvablu tiene un jardín cubierto de parras, donde con buen tiempo se puede disfrutar de un frugal desayuno preparado por su dueña que siempre sorprende a los viajeros con un pan casero, un bizcocho recién salido del horno, una mermelada artesanal y un café aromático que llega corriendo camino del cielo…
Una pasta casera al pesto, una insalata de primavera o una lasagna al forno puede ser otra sorpresa culinaria si se dan las condiciones necesarias.
Cuando el tramonto tocaba a la puerta con un ramo de rosas, yo me sentaba en aquel jardín a disfrutar de un Campari Rosso, en el dolce far niente de mi breve pero inolvidable visita.
Hay momentos en la vida de un viajero en que uno busca algo mas que un hotel con una habitacion, un telefono al lado de la cama y un televisor plasma en la pared y esto fue lo que encontre en este pequeño rincon de Domodosola.
Una casa antigua de piedra, de esas que ya no se encuentran, en lo alto de una montaña, restaurada con muy buen gusto y con un toque de artesania y cariño de parte de su dueña Simona..
Las habitaciones son amplias , confortables, muy limpias y no falta la madera noble como parte de una sobria pero agradable decoracion.
De su jardin viñedo se aprecia una vista espectacular del valle y las montañas circundantes que llenan el epiritu de nuevas emociones.
El aroma del cafe y el pan de casa hacen las delicias de un desayuno frugal donde no faltan las mermeladas hechas por Simona y tampoco biscochos o fruta del tiempo.
Yo estuve en julio y la terraza exterior era nuestro lugar de reunion
bajo las parras de antiguos viñedos.
Simona es una señora muy sociable, habla varios idiomas y su bagaje viajero, le permite dar toda clase de informacion.
Un lugar que recomiendo a cualquier persona que desee paz, tranquilidad, aire puro y poder rivatalizar sus energias fuera de la gran ciudad.
If you wish to stay at a quiet and peaceful place, Uvablu is perfect for you. We enjoyed our three days at Simonas home so much.
The environment is beautiful: you can discover a lot; Simone will give you her advices. We visited the „Orridi di Uriezzo“, hiked from Santa Maria Maggiore to Masera in a beautiful valley and relaxed with a Cappuccino in Domodossola.
We’ll not forget Simona’s hospitality: The delicious breakfast, the good smell in her home, the comfortable bed in the „red room“….
Since we travelled to Uvablu in winter, we will probably come back to hike on the mountains and see the national park.
THANKS, Simona!
“The setting of the house is idyllic – surrounded by grape vines and mountains. The house itself has so much character, and is a good balance of traditional and comfortable. Our host was so friendly and helpful. Really would recommend staying here. Will hopefully stay again ourselves.”
Mi sento di consigliare a tutti questo b&b, la casa è bellissima, curata nel minimo dettaglio, la signora Simona ospitale e più che gentile, la sua colazione rigorosamente fatta in casa, dalle marmellate al pane alle torte era divina. Un soggiorno da favola, romantico rilassante e incantevole!”

I very highly recommend staying at Uvablu. I spent the weekend hiking in the Domodossola area (Alpe Devero, Alpe Gorta). I stayed at Uvablu at the recommendation of friends, and it was such a memorable experience that I already look forward to returning. The renovated historic house is a prefect blend of tradition with modern amenities, the panoramic views are breath-taking to wake up to, and best of all Simona is a wonderful host — kind, friendly, generous, and warmly welcoming (not to mention a delicious baker).
Life is full of unexpected trails … One meets someone who tells you about a place hidden between vineyards against the Alpine flanks … And you make a reservation …. How strange is that … But there you are …. Amidst the vines the sun shines upon an authentic soulful house … Carefully renovated … A warm and welcoming Simona shows you to your bedroom … Aaaahhhh …. The red room with splendid views …. It was a pleasure to wake up in the morning to a finely dressed table … The smell of fresh coffee and home baked bread and cake under a lavish sun … Ah ah ah …. Paradise must have lost a piece here …. Two days turned into tree … God knows how long we would have stayed … 20 ? …. Ask Simona … She knows … So yes … We’ll be back ….
Hi all, i do really need to share my fantastic time i’ve just had in this cosy B&B located in the wonderful Val d’Ossola, near Domodossola in Northern Italy.
Uvablu is a little and special B&B, located in the mountains, a few minutes far from Domodossola, in a silent and relaxing place. Simona, the owner, is such a lovely person, so welcoming, and she has done all she could to make us feel at home! You are welcomed with a big smile and the lovely garden, with a table and seats for your breakfast, is a great place to rest and relax, reading a book or simply enjoying the silence and the wonderful view of the surrounding mountains! In the house there are two rooms, with traditional and comfortable furniture, and a gentle feminine elegant touch! I’ve slept in the green room and it has been hard to wake myself up in the morning, the bed was so comfortable and the night’s silence just incredible! Also the red room is very beautiful, and there is a wonderful elegant bathroom for both rooms. The view you can admire from the windows is simply stunning!
Simona offers you a fantastic breakfast, and if you want a nice chat as well!
I really recommend you guys to go and have a week end or spend more days to UVABLU, just to relax or maybe have some nice time there around, the fantastic mountains are just waiting for you, and Domodossola has a medieval Centre so nice to visit!
I cant wait to go back!
J’ai beaucoup apprécié mon séjour au B&B UvaBlu. Sa situation centrale m’a permis de découvir de nouveaux coins de randonnée (Devero à 30min, Vigezzo à 20). Quelques virages serrés et on se retrouve dans un endroit très calme, avec vue sur les lumières de Domodossola. A noter au petit-déj le délicieux cake fait par Simona. La maison est décorée avec goût et offre tout le confort moderne (Wifi, douche, chauffage) tout en repectant son ancienneté. Si vous y venez à deux, il y a une chambre plus romantique que l’autre. En plus un restaurant un peu „funky“, la Birreria Vichingo, se trouve à quelques minutes, pour des pizzas vraiment bonnes et à prix raisonnable (6-8 euros). Je reviendrai à coup sur pour les vallées que je n’ai pas encore découvertes : Boganco, Antrona, Formazza

Prachtig huis en een sfeervolle kamer in een schitterende omgeving. Simona was uitermate gastvrij en kon ons nuttige informatie geven over bezienswaardigheden en wandelmogelijkheden in de nabije omgeving. Een plaats om terug te keren; een juweeltje!
Sfeervol ingerichte kamer met prachtige kleuren en meubels, waardoor we ons er enorm thuis voelden.
I loved Simona’s warm and welcoming personality. An absolutely beautiful breakfast, and all homemade. The peaceful scenery and picturesque surrounds. The lovely eating spot under the grapevines.
An diesem schönen Ort inmitten von Rebbergen konnte ich meinen Aufenthalt richtig geniessen. Haus und Garten strahlen viel Ruhe und Harmonie aus und Simona hat mit ihrer gewinnenden Art sehr dazu beigetragen. Gerne wieder. Danke Simona für deine Gastfreundschaft.

Simona hat uns nicht nur mit ihrer Herzlichkeit und ihren Kuchen überzeugt, sondern auch mit ihrer offenen Art und ihrem liebevoll restauriertem Haus inmitten von Weinbergen. Ein wirklich zauberhafter Ort! Wir hatten Glück mit dem Wetter und konnten jeden Morgen im Freien unter Weintrauben frühstücken. Es gab immer frisch gebackenen Kuchen von dem ich bereits schwärmte, selbst gemachte Marmelade und frische Feigen. Simona ist eine sehr spannende Persönlichkeit und verleiht zusammen mit ihren Katzen diesem Ort noch zusätzlichen Flair. Wichtige Infos sind inklusive. Absolut empfehlenswert!
We had the splendid pleasure of staying at Simona’s adorable and tranquil B&B for two nights. Located in a small hamlet on the mountain side a few kilometers from Domodossola. It was a very convenient and prime location to explore the vineyards and awe-inspiring scenery, take a short train journey to Locarno, and enjoy local cuisine and wine all within reach of this Simona’s cosy home. Truly a gem and an unforgettable experience not to mention lovely conversations spent over coffee and Simona’s amazing homemade bread and jam. I highly recommend and would definitely return in the future.
Coming from the road (Masera): Easy to find! Truely magic, quiet. Two charming rooms. Perfect set of the table in front of the house for reading or Dinner. The situation could be a filmset of a romantic italian movie. I enjoyed the open, friendly and interestings talk to Simona who travelled a lot in earliar times. Yes, sure, I’ll be back there „one of these days“ 😉 Cheers
Nous avons passé en famille quelques jours très agréables au B&B Uvablu, l’endroit est magnifique, très calme et relaxant, en même temps il y a beaucoup de sites (naturels et culturels) à visiter aux alentours. Notre hôte, Simona, nous a donné plein d’informations sur les visites à faire. La maison est belle, les chambres et la salle de bain (commune aux chambres d’hôte) sont aménagées avec beaucoup de goût et le petit déjeuner (des gâteaux préparés par Simona) est excellent, surtout si le temps le permet et on le déguste sur la terrasse en plein air.
defiantly the most amazing place we stayed in Italy, we didn’t expect to get to this area but in a final call because of the house we decided get there, and it was worth it. the house and farm is amazing among vineyards and stone houses it looked like a scene in a movie, located in a tiny village we just enjoyed walking around the vineyards and houses. we didn’t expect it from the pictures it surly exceeded our expectations. we wish we could stay there more and we love to return on our next vacation, or even move over 😉 the room was big and comfortable as well as the bathroom, we had a nice yard to hang in and chat with simona, which was a huge part of our experience in the house, she gave us full attention and warm hospitality, we surly felt at home. she welcomed us with a drink of Aperol, and provided us a baby bed fully equipped with bedding and let us use her kitchen to make the baby food. she helped us with info on what to do , the village of Devero was exceptional and all the area worth a visit, and the pizza place next to the village is great. don’t miss this house and this hostess
Ho passato 2 notti il primo giorno siamo stati alle terme di Premia per meno di 10 euro, ci siamo fatto un grande bene alla pella e migliorando la circolazione. Il secondo giorno al Shambala festival per una mezza giornata di yoga in campo aperto. Il bb è stato un isola dove riprendere i sensi con gli occhi e il naso: fiori, montagne, aria fresca, sole. Meglio di cosi?!
“La casa settecentesca è situata in una borgata molto tranquilla e curata. La padrona di casa è molto accogliente, la colazione con prodotti locali squisita. Camera e bagno pulitissimi. La consiglio vivamente”
Hi all, i do really need to share my fantastic time i’ve just had in this cosy B&B located in the wonderful Val d’Ossola, near Domodossola in Northern Italy.
Uvablu is a little and special B&B, located in the mountains, a few minutes far from Domodossola, in a silent and relaxing place. Simona, the owner, is such a lovely person, so welcoming, and she has done all she could to make us feel at home! You are welcomed with a big smile and the lovely garden, with a table and seats for your breakfast, is a great place to rest and relax, reading a book or simply enjoying the silence and the wonderful view of the surrounding mountains! In the house there are two rooms, with traditional and comfortable furniture, and a gentle feminine elegant touch! I’ve slept in the green room and it has been hard to wake myself up in the morning, the bed was so comfortable and the night’s silence just incredible! Also the red room is very beautiful, and there is a wonderful elegant bathroom for both rooms. The view you can admire from the windows is simply stunning!
Simona offers you a fantastic breakfast, and if you want a nice chat as well!
I really recommend you guys to go and have a week end or spend more days to UVABLU, just to relax or maybe have some nice time there around, the fantastic mountains are just waiting for you, and Domodossola has a medieval Centre so nice to visit!
I cant wait to go back!
“Very nice location. Simona (the owner) was very welcoming and helpful with everything. The house and room was decorated with much detail and taste. Nice breakfast with self-baked bread and strawberries from the garden (again, every detail is cared for). If in the area, we would come again.”
Simona is an attentive and easygoing host, offering a beautiful home in the middle of a vineyard, part-way up the mountain from Masera. She graciously picked me up from the train station, invited me to join her friends for a glass of wine at the outdoor dining table, and helped me with an injury on my leg. This 17th century home has all the classic features I adore, renovated with the modern amenities of a boutique hotel. The view from Simona’s house, during the day and at night, is spectacular! Her freshly made bread, pastries, and the vineyard’s wine added to the entire experience, and if I could have stayed longer, I would have!
Geweldige B&B. Wat een sprankelend welkom. Prachtige plek, heerlijke bedden en vers zelf gebakken suurdesem brood en verse torte voor ontbijt. The place to be!
The place is, as listed, magical. It is well off the beaten path and provides a beautiful and quaint detour from the ordinary run of things. The house and rooms were very clean and well-maintained and our entire experience was fantastic. Simona was very welcoming and extremely accommodating and helpful. We will definitely return in the future.
We were lucky enough to stay with Simona at her B&B for one night. Simona was quick to respond to our Airbnb request & very welcoming when we arrived. Her home is full of charm, the room we stayed in was more than adequate for our needs and the area is just beautiful. We would like to have stayed another day or two and explored some of the hiking trails that the area offered but we had to go. We had a lovely breakfast the next morning including some fantastic coffee! Thank you for a really authentic stay. „I loved how welcoming Simona is and how beautiful her home is. This was my first airbnb booking so I was intrigued as to how it would all work. Simona was patient with me, welcoming and so pleasant. Thank you for making this easy. I was impressed and enjoyed our stay.“

A rare find in today’s world.
Located on a hillside, a few km from Domodosola, at the mouth of the valley of 100 valleys, a sense of history abounds around this wonderful place.
Very quiet and peaceful,surrounded by vineyards and gardens on well tended grounds.
I arrived late and tired and Simona offered to make me dinner so I would not have to drive to a restaurant…now that is old world service!
The rooms are simple,clean and the beds encourage a good nights sleep,the bathroom clean and the shower good.
There is a stone table and benches outside where you can eat and have coffee/tea in good weather
Walk 40 seconds and there are great view of Domodosola and the Piedmont Alps.
A very good base to explore the region and if you are seeking peace and quiet…well look no further.
The property has a very interesting history that I will reserve for Simona to tell you.
The cost is quite reasonable.
As I visit the area often, and have stayed in many places in the area,this is my new base when visiting the area.
A very safe place for children, with no traffic and plenty of place to roam around.
Go and enjoy…

Simona hat mich in Domodossola vom Bahnhof abgeholt und war auch sonst extrem hilfsbereit. Das Haus ist von Simona sehr liebevoll renoviert worden und in vielen Details wie z.B. dem grossen Holzkamin in der Küche noch sehr original erhalten. Viele Möbel stammen aus dem Familienbesitz. Zum Frühstück gab’s neben Kaffee, selbstgebackenes Brot und Kuchen. Wer also gerne authentische Gastfreundschaft liebt, ist hier perfekt aufgehoben. Der Gartensitzplatz unten der Pergola mit Weinreben ist unglaublich idyllisch. Einziger Wermutstropfen, ohne Auto ist man möglicherweise etwas eingeschränkt, weil es nach Domodossola zu weit zum laufen ist. Darum empfiehlt sich vielleicht, ein Fahrrad zu mieten in Domodossola. Ansonsten kann ich die Unterkunft nur wärmstens empfehlen. Die Wander- und Ausflugsmöglichkeiten in der Region sind vielfältig. Ich werde wieder mal vorbei schauen.
We stayed just one night with Simona at her B&B UvaBlu but we won’t forget it.
What a warm welcome by Simona who turned out to be a perfect host. We had a nice chat in the evening and in the morning she prepared a very simple but nice Italian breakfast for us with good coffee (a good coffee does create the difference, doesn’t it?).
We really had to convince ourselves to leave as we could have chatted the whole day.
The room is perhaps a bit pricey (but competitive in the region) but also perfect, the bathroom is excellent and the views are stunning! What more can we say? If we ever stay in that region again, we know where to go!

“What can one say? This is a little slice of heaven. The initial email communication was pleasantly informal and clear, regular and concise, and had me feeling at ease before my arrival. The beautiful area of this idyllic hamlet strewn with grape vines, through to the mountain views rolling into the distance, this place fits me perfectly. The homely rooms which respect the period of the house but with little personal additions from Simona’s worldly collections hit the mark perfectly as do the common sense requirements – a hairdryer in the room and a squeegee in the sizeable shower (anywhere that has a squeegee for ‚wiping down‘ the shower has a head start in my book straight away!), this is more for me an experience than just your average Bed and Breakfast. There are even little pillows stuffed with (locally reaped, no doubt) dried herbs adorning the pillows to keep the rooms fragrant and fresh. The breakfast was quaintly delicious (a wonderful, local addition of goats cheese made from one of Simona’s friends up by the Swiss border gives you an idea of the thoughtful touches at Uvablu), the table setting sublimely divine under the pergola, and just, well, the feel of the place, which can neither be described in words or pictures is something you’ll really need to experience for yourself. There is wifi too, but using my phone felt like this was a viral intrusion which I had brought into this peaceful, rural and sumptuous environment. Bring a book – work is certainly best left at home. The crowning glory however is Simona herself. If you’re the kind of person who is more interested in listening to others over talking about yourself, she is a wonderfully engaging soul and certainly worth inviting in to share a slice of home-made banana cake with (in any of the languages she is proficient in!). Cannot recommend this place enough if you want to decompress and be a part of life once again. Thank you Simona.”

Ambiente molto caldo e pulito, restaurato divinamente, ideale per chi apprezza ambienti rustici dal sapore antico, il bagno in comune è l’unico dettaglio che mi lasciava dubbioso, ma devo dire che non è stato per niente un problema in quanto la pulizia a qualsiasi ora, era impeccabile, colazione sana e buona con prodotti fatti in casa e utilizzo di materie prime di alto livello, ottima la marmellata di uva fragola rigorosamente fatta dalla proprietaria nel complesso se torno nei pressi di Domodossola ci tornerò sicuramente senza alcun dubbio la bellezza del posto unito alla cortesia assoluta della proprietaria ha reso la nostra permanenza davvero piacevole… Consigliatissimo

Die Unterkunft ist zwar etwas ausserhalb von Domodossola, aber gut per öff. Verkehr und zu Fuss zu erreichen, ebenfalls Bars und Restaurants. Das Haus und das Zimmer sind wunderschön und wahnsinnig schön und ruhig eingebettet in Weinreben.

„Very clean and beautiful house, with 1700 years of history is still preserved classical and the atmosphere! Beautiful like a fairy tale world in general, Simona is a studious friend, very good at communication, and gave us a lot of help, in the house to take care of the kind, in the morning to provide us with all-natural health food, although we stayed only a day, but we cannot forget. I believe that in the future if I have the opportunity to come to Italy, I will choose to bring my friends here to stay one night, This house is great!

Dear Simona,
We would like to thank you for your wonderful hospitality, and for providing us with such a lovely place to stay. The room (in fact the whole house!) is really characterful and beautifully presented, and we loved the fact that we had mountain views out of all of our bedroom windows. We really enjoyed our breakfasts in the garden too with your tasty homemade jams and local produce. Such an attractive and peaceful place to start the day.
We hope you have a great summer, and that the temperature comes back down a little rather than getting any hotter!

Sono stata tre giorni da Simona: arrivata stanca e affaticata dalla vita di città mi sono sentita subito meglio. La casa è meravigliosa e arredata con ottimo gusto in ogni dettaglio, il verde della vigna e delle montagne mette di buon umore e rilassa, il paesino a mezz’ora di passeggiata è un gioiello. E soprattutto Simona è un’ospite di cuore e ti fa sentire subito a casa.
Nella stanza rosa ci sono i libri che conosco bene, libri da viaggiatrice e da persona sempre in cerca – e si vede che ha già trovato il suo posto nel mondo.
In più, la colazione è fantastica – viaggiatrice e cuoca sopraffina!
Grazie Simona, torno presto.

Uvablu è un posto speciale, per tutto: la casa di pietra, immersa nel verde dei vigneti; il pergolato fuori, con il tavolone di pietra dove si mangiano cose squisite preparate da Simona; la colazione con pane e marmellate fatte in casa – perché Simona dice che quando va in giro non le vanno certe cose industriali, quindi non le può certo offrire ai suoi ospiti!
Le camere poi sono una delizia, colori e arredi ti fanno venire voglia di starci e ritornarci, su e giù per la bellissima scala in pietra.
E la vista, il panorama che si gode dalle finestre è una meraviglia, da qualsiasi lato lo si guardi.
Simona è una ‚padrona di casa‘ che ti fa sentire ‚a casa‘, per tutto.
Grazie Simona, ritornerò di sicuro nella tua bella Uvablu! 🙂
“We were here for two nights and it was absolutely great and we can only recommend it. The host – Simona – is very friendly and helps you whenever she can. For us this started already before we arrived. We told her that we'd come to Domodossola via the bus and she told us she could pick us up because she had to go in Domodsoola anyway – so we didn’t have to go the house by ourselves the first time we were there. Thanks again! Further you can ask her about tips where you could go hiking etc. and she’ll provide you with good information. The stay itself is just gorgeous. The rooms are very comfy and clean. The same goes for the shared bathroom (which is one floor below). The bathroom also has a nice shower in which even tall persons (1.93 cm here 😉 ) can shower without problems. It’s also quiet in this place since it’s not in the city. If you want to go to a restaurant there are some nearby – we always went to the same: Birreria Del Vichingo. The food was very good 🙂 By the way: If you come by public transport (train). You can take the train to Trontano (direction Locarno) from Domodossola and get off in Trontano. You then have to walk down the street to the B&B – which takes about ~15mins. But it’s a nice walk since there is not much traffic up there. Also: If you go there don’t miss it to do the walk to Marone which is an abandoned village near Trontano (if you are starting in Trontano be sure to take the mulino way (red signs and then follow the signs to Marone once you are in the woods), so you don’t have to walk all the way on the main-street.”

“Simona was so lovely! I had such a great time staying with her. The house is clean and peaceful, with a great view of the valley and mountains from the bedroom window. I had many lazy afternoons sitting under the grape vines in the garden. The breakfasts were fantastic: homemade breads, jams and a new cake every day. She was really knowledgeable about the local area and directed me towards the best local restaurants and hiking trails, even hiking with me one day. For someone who doesn’t speak a word of Italian, it was the perfect place for me to stay. Thank you so much for looking after me Simona! ”

“I visited Simona’s BnB while biking through Northern Italy and stayed for a few nights. The location was strategically located, only a half hour bike ride from Domodossola train station in the middle of the beautiful Ossola Valley. The house and grounds was a characteristic villa of old style, impeccably clean and organized. Simona was extremely welcoming, going out of her way to assist myself and other guests to ensure a comfortable stay and to help them with their travel plans. While I was there, I saw her assisting guests in several languages, English, Italian, French, and Spanish. She is a native of Northern Italy with extensive international travel experience and so was able to advise on both local points of interests as well as discuss international topics. She was an invaluable resource for my travel plans. The vineyards and gardens are a fantastic place to relax after a long day of bike touring. There is wi-fi throughout most of the house and garden, so it was possible for me to sit in the garden one day and catch up on correspondences and connect to work. I recommend Simona’s BnB to anyone looking to explore the Ossola Valley! ”

Simona is a great host, explained everything we needed to know and was friendly. She prepared a homemade breakfast and chatted with us about the region. later she showed us the vineyards and suggested a walking tour in the area. The room had everything we needed. We are definitely coming back again!!

Bellissima casa, stanza ampia, molto accogliente e ben arredata con mobili in stile ossolano, dehor ampio con pergolato da sfruttare nella bella stagione. Cucina con bellissimo focolare antico. Il gestore, Simona è molto simpatica ed è piacevole parlare con lei, si vede che è appassionata dei questo lavoro e desidera che gli ospiti siano soddisfatti del servizio offerto. Ha preparato ottimi dolci: torta di carote e lo strudel. Il panorama è ampio e i vigneti sono sparsi ovunque. Buon punto di partenza per escursioni nella Val d’Ossola.

Pernottare da uvablu è stata esperienza indimenticabile. Silenzio e profumi, ma sopratutto il silenzio delle cose e la cortesia squisita di Simona. Squisita come la sua colazione. Userò il b&b come base per girare la val d’Ossola, sperando di fare in tempo.

The old palazzo just next to the little house is not visible in the images. It’s the centre of a huge estate with wine slopes and a charming terrace overlooking the Val d’Ossola. It’s a calm and beautiful place. Simona serves great breakfast with selfmade bread and jellys along with strong Italian coffee and at evening her first steps in making a very honest and rustical landwine. She recommended good Osterias nearby, welcomed us late at night on the arrival and even overlooked us sleeping too long on our checkout-day. In short: An absolutely perfect stay, thanks a lot!

The red room is absolutely beautiful and very cozy, and we enjoyed our tasty breakfast (always with freshly brewed coffee, homemade warm bread and cake – everything absolutely delicious!) in Simona’s company. It was so nice and we found not only a home in Pello, but also a friend. Thank you very much Simona, we will come back!”

Ho scoperto UVABLU, per caso, dovendo visitare la VALLE VERZASCA nel canton Ticino. Fra i B&B nella zona, quello di Simona mi ha da subito dato un senso di serietà.
Premetto che ci sono rimasto solo una notte…purtroppo (ci sarei rimasto anche di più).
UVABLU è situato a 4 km da DOMODOSSOLA ed è allocato in una zona tranquillissima di PELLO di TRONTANO (Verbania).
Si trova in mezzo alle viti dove regna la pace totale.
Mi sono subito trovato benissimo e l’ottima accoglienza ha avuto il suo apice nel trovare uva ed acqua in camera.
UVABLU è un B&B in una casa vecchia ristrutturata, con solo 3 camere ed un bagno comune, bagno ammodernato e molto bello.
Non c’è TV, non c’è l’ascensore, ma in compenso un WIFI molto veloce.
La colazione è senza dubbio la migliore che abbia mai fatto, abbondante e con cose preparate personalmente dalla brava SIMONA.
Dovevo ripartire per le otto e poi vista la pace ho ritardato di quasi due ore.
Ovviamente CONSIGLIATO

Simona was a super host, welcoming and friendly, charming B&B in the middle of the vineyards, homemade breakfast with a different cake prepared by simona every day. She was very helpful in showing us what to visit and where to go. I really want to come back and definitely recommend her.

Uvablue no es un Bed and Breakfast…; es decir, es eso y mucho más: es un entorno idílico rodeado de montañas, un sitio para relajarse y descansar, una antiquísima casa de piedra del siglo XVIII, es la madera que cruje en el interior de dicha casa, es una cocina con aromas a café con leche y especias acompañados de historias, de donde salen panes, mermeladas y tartas caseras. También es un lugar cálido, pulcro y con detalles en cada rincón de la casa, y con unas vistas espectaculares desde una pequeña ventana de una habitación… Es todo esto, pero fundamentalmente es Simona, quien con toda la atención y el cariño lleva adelante el Bed and Breakfast y atiende a las personas que se alojan en él como una verdadera casa de invitados.

Simona was very accommodating and went out of her way to make us feel welcome. We arrived fairly late on a very hot day, she helped us with our luggage and provided water quickly. She even set up a baby cot for our 10 month old son. There was a restaurant near by that was suitable for a late evening snack (10:00 pm) on Sunday. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience in a beautiful setting. The fresh breakfast with homemade jam, bread and cake were superb. I can highly recommend Simona’s place to any traveler looking for an original experience.

Die Bilder haben nicht zuviel versprochen – ach was, vor Ort sogar noch schöner!!! Sportlich mit dem Velo auf dem Berg angekommen haben wir die Aussicht sehr genossen. Simona hat uns sehr herzlich empfangen und super Tips gegeben. Das Haus und die Gästezimmer sind sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet – mit Liebe zum Detail. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Besonders zu erwähnen ist das köstliche Frühstück mit homemade Kuchen, Brot sowie den einzigartigen Marmeladen – dazu noch italienischer Kaffee – besser kann ein Start in den Tag nicht beginnen. Wir kommen gerne wieder (wenn die Trauben reif sind) 😉

This experience was the best thing that happened to us in this trip. Not only was the scenery and atmosphere perfect, Simona’s personality, philosophy and charm were something we’ll take with us forever. If you’re ever in the area, you simply have to drop by. My recommendation is to just stay around the villa, read a book, do some yoga, walk around the Alps and relax. Also, get ready for a really good cup of coffee.

Simona has created an incredible idyllic experience in this charming corner of the Italian alps that rings true and authentic to her personality and her life philosophy. She was very prompt in responding to my booking request, sent precise instructions and was available to walk out to the street when I called on reaching the last block late in the night. Both the property and Simona have inspiring stories. The room was very comfortable. The bathroom is very modern and yet affords with a massive window with a view to the vineyards and snowy peaks beyond. The best part of the stay is the breakfast spread that Simona lays out with care and with bread and jams created from scratch. Simona is an attentive and caring host with a great knowledge of the town and the area around.

Sono stato ospite in questo luogo meraviglioso di pace e tranquillità. Il respiro è negli occhi, i suoni arrivano al cuore, le immagini sullo schermo degli occhi rimangono nell’anima.
Sei accolto con il sorriso, una buona tisana e voglia di comunicare.
L’alloggio merita con la sua semplicità di campagna ma di gusto molto fine.
Vorrò ritornare, un abbraccio. Dario
Hacen 25 años y un suspiro trasnochado, me bajé del tren en una localidad desconocida, solitaria, lejana de mis horizontes viajeros, ausente y melancólica como mis pensamientos en aquel ayer, rodeada de montañas, viñedos, nieve y casitas hechas de piedra como en la época medieval.
Habitada por tribus celtas, invadida por bárbaros y gibelinos, conquistada por romanos y etruscos en tiempos pasados, hoy la reconquistan turistas suizos, holandeses, belgas, gitanos y americanos..
Una dama pequeña, de frágil figura, cabellos grises, de mirada tímida y sonrisa recatada me esperaba con un halo de tristeza en aquel anden del olvido.
Yo era el único pasajero que se bajaba en aquel lugar, era el invitado de aquella dama de mirada triste. El lugar se llamaba Pello di Trontano, y pertenece a la región del Piamonte italiano, famiglia de la provincia de Verbano- Cusio-Osola.
Cruzamos las lineas del tren y entramos en su casita de piedra, de donde emanaba el aroma de una pasta que se estaba cociendo a fuego lento y me daba la bienvenida acompañado de un vino típico de la región. Los sonidos plañideros de un fado salían sigilosamente de una radio pequeña que acompañaba la soledad de aquel medio día.
Estaba a 520 metros de felicidad, en lo alto de un valle, en el centro de los Alpes, con una vista panorámica de Domodossola, la localidad mas importante en la región y hoy en día una de las principales vías de comunicación entre Italia y Suiza junto al paso Simplon lugar de atracción turística internacional.
La dama de mirada triste me llevó a conocer los alrededores, me mostró la iglesia Dei santi Gervasio que destacaba en el fondo del valle, el camino que lleva a Suiza, sentir los latidos de mi corazón, respirar los olores del campo, curiosear en tiendas de familia con quesos y vinos artesanales, observar casas antiguas construidas de piedra en siglos pasados que reflejan el orgullo de la cultura ossolana.
A medida que continuábamos nuestra pasegiatta mi anfitriona era saludada con cariño y respeto por los lugareños a lo que ella contestaba risueña ¡Buon giorno Catalina! O se detenía para una pequeña charla (una chiachiara italiana) y me presentaba como su gran invitado a lo que yo hacia honor expresando mi gran admiración por todo lo que me rodeaba.
Me contaba que en una de esas casas hechas de piedra, pasó parte de su adolescencia y juventud. Mas tarde sus hijos jugarían entre aquellas piedras antiguas sin llegar a imaginar que un día una de esas casas del 1800 se convertiría en el B&B Uvablu.
El Uvablu existe gracias al tezon, esfuerzo y energía magna de su dueña y directora Simona, viajera culta, amante del arte, de la música, de la gastronomía, poliglota, habla varios idiomas incluyendo el argentino, quien se ha convertido en una experta en crear mostos y vinos alpinos.
Simona le da ese toque personal y familiar al Uvablu que lo distingue de los demás con una atención personalizada y familiar hacia sus clientes y que en corto tiempo se ha ganado un lugar de referencia en el mundo de la hostelería.
La decoración de las habitaciones es simple pero de buen gusto y acorde con la antigüedad de la casa donde se mezcla la piedra y la madera noble con tonos suaves y cálidos en sus paredes.
El Uvablu está ubicado en la parte alta de un valle, rodeado de verde, con una vista extraordinaria de los Alpes, en una zona de absoluta paz y tranquilidad. Se pueden dar paseos por los alrededores y visitar Domodossola como centro principal, una ciudad rica en arquitectura, situada a pocos kilómetros de distancia, donde se puede acceder a un viaje panorámico en el tren Centovalli que une Domodossola con Locarno
El Uvablu tiene un jardín cubierto de parras, donde con buen tiempo se puede disfrutar de un frugal desayuno preparado por su dueña que siempre sorprende a los viajeros con un pan casero, un bizcocho recién salido del horno, una mermelada artesanal y un café aromático que llega corriendo camino del cielo…
Una pasta casera al pesto, una insalata de primavera o una lasagna al forno puede ser otra sorpresa culinaria si se dan las condiciones necesarias.
Cuando el tramonto tocaba a la puerta con un ramo de rosas, yo me sentaba en aquel jardín a disfrutar de un Campari Rosso, en el dolce far niente de mi breve pero inolvidable visita.

Hay momentos en la vida de un viajero en que uno busca algo mas que un hotel con una habitacion, un telefono al lado de la cama y un televisor plasma en la pared y esto fue lo que encontre en este pequeño rincon de Domodosola.
Una casa antigua de piedra, de esas que ya no se encuentran, en lo alto de una montaña, restaurada con muy buen gusto y con un toque de artesania y cariño de parte de su dueña Simona..
Las habitaciones son amplias , confortables, muy limpias y no falta la madera noble como parte de una sobria pero agradable decoracion.
De su jardin viñedo se aprecia una vista espectacular del valle y las montañas circundantes que llenan el epiritu de nuevas emociones.
El aroma del cafe y el pan de casa hacen las delicias de un desayuno frugal donde no faltan las mermeladas hechas por Simona y tampoco biscochos o fruta del tiempo.
Yo estuve en julio y la terraza exterior era nuestro lugar de reunion
bajo las parras de antiguos viñedos.
Simona es una señora muy sociable, habla varios idiomas y su bagaje viajero, le permite dar toda clase de informacion.
Un lugar que recomiendo a cualquier persona que desee paz, tranquilidad, aire puro y poder rivatalizar sus energias fuera de la gran ciudad.
If you wish to stay at a quiet and peaceful place, Uvablu is perfect for you. We enjoyed our three days at Simonas home so much.
The environment is beautiful: you can discover a lot; Simone will give you her advices. We visited the „Orridi di Uriezzo“, hiked from Santa Maria Maggiore to Masera in a beautiful valley and relaxed with a Cappuccino in Domodossola.
We’ll not forget Simona’s hospitality: The delicious breakfast, the good smell in her home, the comfortable bed in the „red room“….
Since we travelled to Uvablu in winter, we will probably come back to hike on the mountains and see the national park.
THANKS, Simona!
“The setting of the house is idyllic – surrounded by grape vines and mountains. The house itself has so much character, and is a good balance of traditional and comfortable. Our host was so friendly and helpful. Really would recommend staying here. Will hopefully stay again ourselves.”

Mi sento di consigliare a tutti questo b&b, la casa è bellissima, curata nel minimo dettaglio, la signora Simona ospitale e più che gentile, la sua colazione rigorosamente fatta in casa, dalle marmellate al pane alle torte era divina. Un soggiorno da favola, romantico rilassante e incantevole!”

I very highly recommend staying at Uvablu. I spent the weekend hiking in the Domodossola area (Alpe Devero, Alpe Gorta). I stayed at Uvablu at the recommendation of friends, and it was such a memorable experience that I already look forward to returning. The renovated historic house is a prefect blend of tradition with modern amenities, the panoramic views are breath-taking to wake up to, and best of all Simona is a wonderful host — kind, friendly, generous, and warmly welcoming (not to mention a delicious baker).

Life is full of unexpected trails … One meets someone who tells you about a place hidden between vineyards against the Alpine flanks … And you make a reservation …. How strange is that … But there you are …. Amidst the vines the sun shines upon an authentic soulful house … Carefully renovated … A warm and welcoming Simona shows you to your bedroom … Aaaahhhh …. The red room with splendid views …. It was a pleasure to wake up in the morning to a finely dressed table … The smell of fresh coffee and home baked bread and cake under a lavish sun … Ah ah ah …. Paradise must have lost a piece here …. Two days turned into tree … God knows how long we would have stayed … 20 ? …. Ask Simona … She knows … So yes … We’ll be back ….

Hi all, i do really need to share my fantastic time i’ve just had in this cosy B&B located in the wonderful Val d’Ossola, near Domodossola in Northern Italy.
Uvablu is a little and special B&B, located in the mountains, a few minutes far from Domodossola, in a silent and relaxing place. Simona, the owner, is such a lovely person, so welcoming, and she has done all she could to make us feel at home! You are welcomed with a big smile and the lovely garden, with a table and seats for your breakfast, is a great place to rest and relax, reading a book or simply enjoying the silence and the wonderful view of the surrounding mountains! In the house there are two rooms, with traditional and comfortable furniture, and a gentle feminine elegant touch! I’ve slept in the green room and it has been hard to wake myself up in the morning, the bed was so comfortable and the night’s silence just incredible! Also the red room is very beautiful, and there is a wonderful elegant bathroom for both rooms. The view you can admire from the windows is simply stunning!
Simona offers you a fantastic breakfast, and if you want a nice chat as well!
I really recommend you guys to go and have a week end or spend more days to UVABLU, just to relax or maybe have some nice time there around, the fantastic mountains are just waiting for you, and Domodossola has a medieval Centre so nice to visit!
I cant wait to go back!

J’ai beaucoup apprécié mon séjour au B&B UvaBlu. Sa situation centrale m’a permis de découvir de nouveaux coins de randonnée (Devero à 30min, Vigezzo à 20). Quelques virages serrés et on se retrouve dans un endroit très calme, avec vue sur les lumières de Domodossola. A noter au petit-déj le délicieux cake fait par Simona. La maison est décorée avec goût et offre tout le confort moderne (Wifi, douche, chauffage) tout en repectant son ancienneté. Si vous y venez à deux, il y a une chambre plus romantique que l’autre. En plus un restaurant un peu „funky“, la Birreria Vichingo, se trouve à quelques minutes, pour des pizzas vraiment bonnes et à prix raisonnable (6-8 euros). Je reviendrai à coup sur pour les vallées que je n’ai pas encore découvertes : Boganco, Antrona, Formazza

Simona hat uns nicht nur mit ihrer Herzlichkeit und ihren Kuchen überzeugt, sondern auch mit ihrer offenen Art und ihrem liebevoll restauriertem Haus inmitten von Weinbergen. Ein wirklich zauberhafter Ort! Wir hatten Glück mit dem Wetter und konnten jeden Morgen im Freien unter Weintrauben frühstücken. Es gab immer frisch gebackenen Kuchen von dem ich bereits schwärmte, selbst gemachte Marmelade und frische Feigen. Simona ist eine sehr spannende Persönlichkeit und verleiht zusammen mit ihren Katzen diesem Ort noch zusätzlichen Flair. Wichtige Infos sind inklusive. Absolut empfehlenswert!

We had the splendid pleasure of staying at Simona’s adorable and tranquil B&B for two nights. Located in a small hamlet on the mountain side a few kilometers from Domodossola. It was a very convenient and prime location to explore the vineyards and awe-inspiring scenery, take a short train journey to Locarno, and enjoy local cuisine and wine all within reach of this Simona’s cosy home. Truly a gem and an unforgettable experience not to mention lovely conversations spent over coffee and Simona’s amazing homemade bread and jam. I highly recommend and would definitely return in the future.

Coming from the road (Masera): Easy to find! Truely magic, quiet. Two charming rooms. Perfect set of the table in front of the house for reading or Dinner. The situation could be a filmset of a romantic italian movie. I enjoyed the open, friendly and interestings talk to Simona who travelled a lot in earliar times. Yes, sure, I’ll be back there „one of these days“ 😉 Cheers

Nous avons passé en famille quelques jours très agréables au B&B Uvablu, l’endroit est magnifique, très calme et relaxant, en même temps il y a beaucoup de sites (naturels et culturels) à visiter aux alentours. Notre hôte, Simona, nous a donné plein d’informations sur les visites à faire. La maison est belle, les chambres et la salle de bain (commune aux chambres d’hôte) sont aménagées avec beaucoup de goût et le petit déjeuner (des gâteaux préparés par Simona) est excellent, surtout si le temps le permet et on le déguste sur la terrasse en plein air.

defiantly the most amazing place we stayed in Italy, we didn’t expect to get to this area but in a final call because of the house we decided get there, and it was worth it. the house and farm is amazing among vineyards and stone houses it looked like a scene in a movie, located in a tiny village we just enjoyed walking around the vineyards and houses. we didn’t expect it from the pictures it surly exceeded our expectations. we wish we could stay there more and we love to return on our next vacation, or even move over 😉 the room was big and comfortable as well as the bathroom, we had a nice yard to hang in and chat with simona, which was a huge part of our experience in the house, she gave us full attention and warm hospitality, we surly felt at home. she welcomed us with a drink of Aperol, and provided us a baby bed fully equipped with bedding and let us use her kitchen to make the baby food. she helped us with info on what to do , the village of Devero was exceptional and all the area worth a visit, and the pizza place next to the village is great. don’t miss this house and this hostess

Il secondo giorno al Shambala festival per una mezza giornata di yoga in campo aperto. Il bb è stato un isola dove riprendere i sensi con gli occhi e il naso: fiori, montagne, aria fresca, sole.

Simona is an attentive and easygoing host, offering a beautiful home in the middle of a vineyard, part-way up the mountain from Masera. She graciously picked me up from the train station, invited me to join her friends for a glass of wine at the outdoor dining table, and helped me with an injury on my leg. This 17th century home has all the classic features I adore, renovated with the modern amenities of a boutique hotel. The view from Simona’s house, during the day and at night, is spectacular! Her freshly made bread, pastries, and the vineyard’s wine added to the entire experience, and if I could have stayed longer, I would have!

We were lucky enough to stay with Simona at her B&B for one night. Simona was quick to respond to our Airbnb request & very welcoming when we arrived. Her home is full of charm, the room we stayed in was more than adequate for our needs and the area is just beautiful. We would like to have stayed another day or two and explored some of the hiking trails that the area offered but we had to go. We had a lovely breakfast the next morning including some fantastic coffee! Thank you for a really authentic stay. „I loved how welcoming Simona is and how beautiful her home is. This was my first airbnb booking so I was intrigued as to how it would all work. Simona was patient with me, welcoming and so pleasant. Thank you for making this easy. I was impressed and enjoyed our stay.“

A rare find in today’s world.
Located on a hillside, a few km from Domodosola, at the mouth of the valley of 100 valleys, a sense of history abounds around this wonderful place.
Very quiet and peaceful,surrounded by vineyards and gardens on well tended grounds.
I arrived late and tired and Simona offered to make me dinner so I would not have to drive to a restaurant…now that is old world service!
The rooms are simple,clean and the beds encourage a good nights sleep,the bathroom clean and the shower good.
There is a stone table and benches outside where you can eat and have coffee/tea in good weather
Walk 40 seconds and there are great view of Domodosola and the Piedmont Alps.
A very good base to explore the region and if you are seeking peace and quiet…well look no further.
The property has a very interesting history that I will reserve for Simona to tell you.
The cost is quite reasonable.
As I visit the area often, and have stayed in many places in the area,this is my new base when visiting the area.
A very safe place for children, with no traffic and plenty of place to roam around.
Go and enjoy…

Simona hat mich in Domodossola vom Bahnhof abgeholt und war auch sonst extrem hilfsbereit. Das Haus ist von Simona sehr liebevoll renoviert worden und in vielen Details wie z.B. dem grossen Holzkamin in der Küche noch sehr original erhalten. Viele Möbel stammen aus dem Familienbesitz. Zum Frühstück gab’s neben Kaffee, selbstgebackenes Brot und Kuchen. Wer also gerne authentische Gastfreundschaft liebt, ist hier perfekt aufgehoben. Der Gartensitzplatz unten der Pergola mit Weinreben ist unglaublich idyllisch. Einziger Wermutstropfen, ohne Auto ist man möglicherweise etwas eingeschränkt, weil es nach Domodossola zu weit zum laufen ist. Darum empfiehlt sich vielleicht, ein Fahrrad zu mieten in Domodossola. Ansonsten kann ich die Unterkunft nur wärmstens empfehlen. Die Wander- und Ausflugsmöglichkeiten in der Region sind vielfältig. Ich werde wieder mal vorbei schauen.

We stayed just one night with Simona at her B&B UvaBlu but we won’t forget it.
What a warm welcome by Simona who turned out to be a perfect host. We had a nice chat in the evening and in the morning she prepared a very simple but nice Italian breakfast for us with good coffee (a good coffee does create the difference, doesn’t it?).
We really had to convince ourselves to leave as we could have chatted the whole day.
The room is perhaps a bit pricey (but competitive in the region) but also perfect, the bathroom is excellent and the views are stunning! What more can we say? If we ever stay in that region again, we know where to go!
