Holidays in a listed building combines heritage conservation and tourism. Historically valuable buildings are taken over, gently renovated and rented out as holiday flats. The model provides a double benefit: the monuments are given a revitalised future and the holiday guests experience a stay in an exceptional building. The idea is being realised by the "Ferien im Baudenkmal" foundation, which was set up by the Swiss Heritage Society in 2005.
Public transport: Bus 315 from Locarno, Stazione to Maggia, Centro
Car park: public car park next to the church
Number of persons 4: A cot is available on request (up to 2 years). The house can accommodate four guests. The floors are made of wood and stone, which is why we recommend good slippers.

Outdoor space: The outdoor space is also partly used by the residents. The path to the roof terrace leads via the outdoor space of Casa Portico.

Stove/chimney: Wood-burning stoves in the living room and dining room plus fireplace in the living room.

The listed building has been equipped with modern sanitary and kitchen facilities for your daily comfort. In order to preserve the historical structure of the building, no heating has been installed, which is why the house is heated by wood-burning stoves. Slippers and warm clothes are therefore an advantage and should be brought along.
IMPORTANT ADDITION
The "Ca' di Bifúi" is a listed building that has been renovated with great respect for the existing fabric. The tenants are aware of this and treat the property with care. Although it is technically equipped to modern standards, certain functional details such as window and door openers, stair handrails and step heights do not meet current standards and are a potential source of danger. Particular reference should be made here to the narrow, steep external staircase, which is a source of danger for people with limited mobility or small children. The tenants are aware of these circumstances. The owner, e-domizil and the foundation Ferien im Baudenkmal disclaim any liability.
Further information can be found on the website of the Stiftung Ferien im Baudenkmal.
