Welcome to our spacious family house in Fanna, in the heart of Friuli Venezia Giulia. The property extends over three floors and combines comfort, authenticity and plenty of space for families and groups. With four bedrooms and six beds, two bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, bright living areas and unusually wide hallways and landings, the house offers a sense of openness and freedom. Guests especially enjoy the private courtyard – a peaceful spot for outdoor dining, morning coffee or relaxing after a day of exploring. The house is designed to feel like a true home away from home. Each bedroom is airy and comfortable, the kitchen has everything you need for cooking together, and the common spaces give everyone room to spread out. The wide hallways and spacious landings between the floors create extra corners to read, play or simply enjoy the natural light. Our location makes this property a perfect base for adventure. Hiking and cycling trails begin just outside Fanna, and within easy reach lies the Friulian Dolomites Natural Park with its dramatic peaks and forests. In winter, the Piancavallo ski area offers slopes for all levels. For cultural day trips, Venice is within reach by train or car, while Udine, Pordenone and the mosaic town of Spilimbergo are close by. Whether you love mountains, history, art or good food, Friuli has something for everyone. To make your stay more special, we share our own local products with guests. Depending on the season you can taste our homemade honey, fresh herbs and produce from the garden – a genuine taste of Friuli hospitality. This family-friendly holiday home is ideal for families who want to combine comfort at home with the chance to explore Northern Italy. Spacious interiors, private outdoor space, and easy access to both nature and culture make it a memorable place to stay. We are looking forward to hosting you!

Your host, Celeste, is Dutch-Italian with roots in Friuli and currently based in Greece. A passionate traveler, she values authenticity, calm and quality in every journey — and she brings the same spirit to this family home. This property is especially meaningful: it belonged to her grandparents, and her grandmother was born in the courtyard. Over the years the house has been updated for comfort, but it remains a truly authentic Friulian home, full of character and tradition. To make your stay smooth and personal, our local co-host and neighbor is nearby to welcome you. With his deep knowledge of the area, he can guide you to hidden hiking paths, authentic restaurants, the family bee farm and other regional highlights. Together, we make sure you feel at home while experiencing the best of Friuli.

Fanna is a traditional Friulian village where life still follows a calm rhythm. You will find small family-run shops, a few welcoming cafés, and a church that is especially admired for its history and atmosphere. The local language is Friulian, spoken with pride alongside Italian, and the authentic food of the region can be tasted in nearby trattorias and agriturismi. Nature is all around the house: rivers flow close by, and in the evenings you may hear wild boars or spot deer and many bird species. Bird sanctuaries and peaceful lakes are within easy biking distance, making this a wonderful area for nature lovers. In summer, swimming pools and rivers offer fresh places to cool off. Staying here gives you the chance to experience real Friuli culture — with its warm hospitality, traditional flavors and unspoiled natural surroundings. Just outside the village lies Maniago, famous for its knife-making tradition, medieval castle, museum and Piazza Italia lined with cafés and local markets. A little further are Spilimbergo, with its medieval festivals and world-renowned mosaic school, and Pordenone, known for culture and gourmet restaurants. Picturesque villages such as Poffabro and other small towns add to the charm of the region. For adventure lovers, Friuli offers hiking, mountain climbing, via ferrata routes and even paragliding. In winter you can ski in Piancavallo, while in summer you can enjoy a beach day in Lignano Sabbiadoro. Venice and Udine are also within reach for cultural day trips. With so much to see and do, this is the perfect base for families, friends and anyone who wants to combine comfort, authenticity and adventure. Families with children will find plenty to enjoy: animal farms, walking routes and a playground in Fanna, plus our own fenced garden and land to play safely. Nearby are a large playground in Maniago, a climbing forest at Piancavallo and the bird sanctuary at Lake Cornino.
