B&B I Corni di Nibbio

At the foot of the rugged Corni di Nibbio, a natural gateway between the Val d’Ossola and Valgrande, stands an old 19th-century farmhouse, now transformed into a welcoming accommodation. The B&B I Corni di Nibbio takes its name from the mountain that looms above it and is located in the small village of Nibbio in the Mergozzo area, less than a kilometer from the highway exit and just a few minutes from the historic center and the lake of the same name, known for its clear waters and unspoiled landscape.

Carefully and passionately renovated, the B&B retains the original charm of the historic home: exposed oak beams, handcrafted restored solid wood furnishings, warm colors, and the tranquility of an authentic environment make every stay an immersive experience. Guests can choose to start their day with a wholesome breakfast in the cozy “Proman” room with a fireplace or outdoors under the pergolas in the garden, surrounded by vines and mountain views. Upon request, a gluten-free breakfast option is available.

Enhancing the stay is the pool, nestled in nature and perfect for relaxation, along with a well-equipped garden where children can play safely. During warm summer evenings, sharing a glass of local wine outdoors evokes a sense of suspended time, far from the hustle and bustle.

Elenia, with extensive experience in the tourism sector, personally manages the hospitality and prepares jams and sweets using local ingredients. Patrizio, a blacksmith, has lovingly restored the home with patience and dedication. Rounding out the family atmosphere is Giorgia, the youngest member, a loving mascot attentive to every guest.

The rooms, each with its own character, tell the story of the house: no mass-produced furniture, just unique pieces brought back to life. Small pet dogs are welcome upon request, depending on the availability of the dedicated room.

The location of the B&B is ideal for exploring an extraordinarily rich area. Mergozzo is a village overlooking a swimmable lake, one of the cleanest in Europe, from which trails, bike paths, and mule tracks lead to nearby hamlets. In just a few minutes, one can reach Lake Maggiore with the Borromean Islands, Lake Orta, and the Island of San Giulio. The Valgrande National Park, Monte Rosa, the thermal baths of Premia, and the Toce Waterfall are also within close proximity.

Sports and adventure enthusiasts will find numerous activities in the area: trekking, cycling, rock climbing, swimming, sailing, canoeing, and kayaking. The nearby Aquadventure Park offers fun for all ages, while those seeking thrilling experiences can try the Alpyland toboggan on Mottarone. Nearby, there are four golf courses available for enthusiasts.

For those wanting to discover culinary delights, the region boasts a rich food and wine tradition. From contemporary pizza at Taverna Sass with lake views to the typical flavors of the trattoria Il Risottino, and the selection of over a hundred craft beers at Birreria Freelance, each offering reflects a deep connection to the land.

Amidst mountains, lakes, and genuine hospitality, the B&B I Corni di Nibbio is a place to rediscover the joy of slow living, surrounded by nature, tradition, and sincere welcome.
