Saint-Rhémy-en-bosses is one of the highest municipalities in the Aosta Valley, located in the upper Gran San Bernardo valley at an altitude of approximately 1,620 metres. The village lies along the historic route leading to the Great St Bernard Pass, an alpine crossing frequented since antiquity by pilgrims, merchants and travellers. Maison Farinet occupies the hamlet of Cerisey, a small rural settlement that retains the authentic character of traditional Valdostan mountain villages.
The natural setting is of rare beauty: the peaks of the Grand Combin massif dominate the horizon to the east, while to the west the view opens towards the valleys leading to Mont Blanc. In winter the area attracts skiers, thanks to its proximity to the slopes of Courmayeur and local ski lifts; in summer it becomes an ideal destination for hikers and cyclists exploring the trails of the Mont Avic Natural Park and the historic routes of the Gran San Bernardo.
Nearby there are several typical Valdostan restaurants, including Sous le Pont de Bosses at 300 m and Le Relais du Pelerin at around 400 m. Aosta Airport can be reached in approximately 29 minutes by car, while the Great St Bernard Tunnel — connecting the Aosta Valley to Switzerland — is just a few kilometres away.
Guests of Maison Farinet express near-unanimous enthusiasm: cleanliness and comfort receive outstanding scores, the staff is described as warm and attentive, and value for money is rated very satisfactory. The high-mountain location is appreciated by those seeking authenticity and tranquillity.
