We stayed at Roberta’s for 2 nights and wish we had more time. It was enchanting. Roberta goes out of her way to be a super host. She met us in the town to lead the way to her chalet. I would recommend this. It is hard to find because you have to literally drive off road to get there. We rented a car in Germany and had a sedan. We made it but recommend taking an SUV. At the very least, have AWD. The journey is worth it and the location is extremely peaceful. You fall asleep to darkness and silence (except for crickets) and wake up to the chirping of birds.
Roberta’s son Giovanni was also a delight and went the extra mile for us. There is also Margo, an entertaining chocolate lab who loves to play “soccer” (they have a soccer field)! Our teen sons enjoyed playing with Giovanni (soccer, foozball, and ping pong. Note: Canal San Bovo is very small and almost everything closes between 12:30 - 4:.00. We walked there on a small road (about 45 mins). You are better off driving to other small towns for restaurants. There is a grocery store in Canal San Bovo but check its open hours before you venture there. I would highly recommend time in San Martino di Castrozza, about 30 minutes of winding mountain road away. Our son tried downhill mountain biking there but we would recommend the hiking, they are famous for that in the summer. It is an idyllic place!
