Chalet Il Gufo, Cervinia, Italy

Chalet Il Gufo is one of Cervinia’s more exclusive ski-in ski-out chalets. Striking contemporary design and ultimate ski access are the hallmarks of this exciting property. From its elevated position above the resort centre guests are treated to sweeping views across the village centre and towards the magnificent Matterhorn, one of the most iconic peaks in the world.

This stunning British–Italian owned retreat enjoys an enviable balance of seclusion and convenience yet is still within easy reach of the heart of Cervinia resort with its shops, restaurants and lively après-ski.

Hidden amongst the pine forests above Cervinia, Chalet Il Gufo is accessed via a private tunnel carved beneath the ski slope, ensuring complete privacy and an atmosphere of serene exclusivity. Here, guests are enveloped by nature and the surrounding trees giving a stay experience which feels far removed from the everyday.

The chalet’s design redefines modern mountain living. Every detail, from bespoke furnishings to locally inspired artwork, has been carefully curated to create an interior that is both elegant and comfortable. Each of the six en-suite bedrooms offers its own character and charm. The master suite, with its five-metre vaulted ceiling and majestic Matterhorn views is truly spectacular.

The spa at Chalet Il Gufo is an extraordinary retreat in its own right. A 10m indoor swimming pool, steam room, and fully equipped gym invite guests to unwind after a day on the slopes, while the outdoor Jacuzzi offers the ultimate après-ski indulgence beneath a canopy of stars.

Entertainment is equally well considered from the private bar and cinema room to the games area featuring pool, table tennis, and table football. Evenings are made as memorable as the days spent on the mountain.

The attention to detail extends even to the super-sized ski and boot room, where 14 individual stations ensure every guest enjoys their own space. With heated boot and glove racks, generous storage, and direct access to the red-grade piste, this is a ski room elevated far above nearly all others. Private ski instructors can even meet you right here in the ski room, setting the tone for a seamless and effortless day on the mountain.
