Ciasa Sunara

We stayed at Ciasa Sunara last week for a cycling trip to the Dolomites. Whislt the weather was a little indifferent, our stay at Valentina and Daniel's lovely apartments was anything but. Comfortable, clean, spacious, well kitted out with kitchen gear, cosy, warm, comfortable, it was the perfect place to base ourselves for a week's tough but stunning riding. The apartments are perfectly positioned, nestled in the small village of Colfosco, 1km from the slightly busier Corvara, and about 8km from the Passo Gardena. There is a great garage and ski room for storing and drying your bikes, skiis, boots or kit. The apartments have balconies or terraces for chilling out on (chill being the operative word when we were there!). The scenery is spectacular; with the awesome looming pinnacles of the Sella Ronda Dolomites leaning over you in an mystical, beautiful embrace. With hindsight, the first week in October is not a great time to go as the weather was poor when we were there. We were unlucky as it could have been glorious (it was for the last day). Also many restaurants are shut as the local tourism industry transitions from summer to winter action, and take a short break at the same time. But this also means you get the place to yourself, with no crowds on the ski lifts or roads. But watch out for the Porsche Club and Hyundai Boy Racers! A great destination and great accommodation. Danke Schon Valentina und Daniel!
