Treat yourself to a holiday surrounded by nature in a location that has made the history of Barzio. The Garden Bar Gelateria di Barzio is a historic place that has been able to win a special place in the heart of Valsassina and its visitors. Located in the center of the town, this ice cream bar has become over time a reference point for those looking for a welcoming atmosphere and a selection of quality artisanal ice cream. Its history is intertwined with that of Barzio, a holiday resort renowned for its proximity to the mountains and for the charm it has always exerted on tourists and artists. During the golden years of Italian music, the Garden Bar Gelateria had the privilege of hosting illustrious names such as Adriano Celentano and Mina, two icons that marked an era. It is said that these great artists loved to spend time in Barzio, finding in the Garden a perfect place to relax and enjoy moments of conviviality. Their presence helped to make the place a symbol of the Italian Dolce Vita, further attracting the attention of tourists and lovers of good company. The place is now closed, but the owners (Esmeralda and Leonardo who experienced the splendour of the seventies) have decided to open 3 of the 5 apartments above for short rentals. Il Glicine can accommodate up to 6 people and is ideal for families or groups of friends who want a very central location suitable for families.

The large terrace overlooking Via Martiri Patrioti Barziesi allows you to enjoy a wonderful view of the Grigne group. The equipment of the apartment is complete: it comes with 1 set of 3 towels per person and sheets for each bed, washed by a professional laundry. In the kitchen you will find everything you need to cook, including a small welcome kit with salt, pepper, oil and coffee; in the bathroom you will find a hairdryer, shampoo and shower gel.
