Maso Zambo: Alpine Wellness Boutique in Valsassina
Maso Zambo, a boutique wellness retreat in Cassina, Valsassina, Italy, is a restored stable and granary turned into a minimalist modern sanctuary. Conceived by Stefano Zambon, who also serves as resident chef, the property features two exclusive rooms, a private sauna, and a hyper-local culinary philosophy. The menu changes daily, using ingredients from the estate's vegetable gardens and animals tended by Mr. Walter. A four-course tasting dinner included pea cream with candied eggs, duck ravioli, Trentino salmon trout, and a semifreddo dessert. The retreat offers access to trekking paths toward Piani di Bobbio and Grigna Settentrionale, as well as the Ciclabile della Valsassina cycling route.
