Maison Du-Noyer is located in the hamlet of Excenex, a small village perched on the hills above Aosta at around 1,050 metres above sea level. The setting is typical of rural Aosta Valley villages: quiet, scenic and surrounded by meadows with views over the mountains encircling the regional capital. Despite the peaceful surroundings, the property is well connected to the centre of Aosta by bus service, including on-demand routes, making it easy to reach the city without a car.
Aosta is one of the most fascinating historic centres in the Western Alps: its Roman walls, the Arch of Augustus, the Roman theatre and the medieval cathedral make it a destination rich in history and culture, just a few minutes’ drive away. From Excenex, it is easy to access the Aosta Valley’s hiking trails, with paths linking the hilltop villages and the castles scattered along the main valley.
The most well-known ski and tourist destinations are reachable in around half an hour: Courmayeur with its access to Mont Blanc, Prè Saint Didier with its thermal baths and Saint Vincent with its casino and valley-floor amenities. The hamlet itself, with its stone architecture and quiet lanes, is well worth an exploratory stroll.
