Superb kitchen - all appliances including US-style fridge-freezer with ice and water dispensers.

Tables, chairs and sun parasols on the south and west terraces - enjoy every meal with fantastic lake and mountain views. Central heating is available for winter visits - when Italy sparkles. Shuttered windows keep the rooms cool, even on the hottest days - no need for noisy air-conditioning. Wireless broadband Internet is installed. Satellite television & DVD player are included - there is TV reception in many European languages. Private car park space with extra visitor parking. A maid service is available, if needed.

Further details for this holiday apartment rental in Luino, Italy

Lake Maggiore: Near to Milan, Italy, there are Lake Garda, Lake Como and one of Italy's largest lakes, Lake Maggiore. This has fast, modern, lakeside ferry boats. Regular services plus high-speed catarmarans and hydrofoils take you to the towns and villages around the Lake - these will be a highlight of your holiday. Places to visit by boat are the lovely village of Cannobio and the town of Stresa which features magnificent 19th century luxury hotels where you might expect to meet Agatha Christie and Hercule Poirot. Opposite Stresa are the Borromean Islands - Isola Bella 'beautiful island' has a fairytale palace and garden. Isola Madre and Isola Pescatori also have great appeal. An inexpensive water taxi from Stresa takes you there. A great day out is the Lago Maggiore Express by boat from Luino up the Lake to the Swiss towns of Ascona and Locarno where you take the 'Hundred Valley' train into the Swiss Alps then connect to Stresa and back by boat to Luino. A lovely day trip.

Luino, Lugano, Como and other Italian Lakes: Luino is a nice town by the lakeside with shops, supermarkets and good restaurants (Hotel Camin is highly recommended for a celebration dinner for two or for a party). Luino hosts a huge street market on Wednesdays - another highlight. A fantastic bread shop is off the main square - early risers can pop down for your scrummy breakfast rolls. Alternatively, within walking distance, a small modern supermarket opens at 8.30am. Another advantage is that you are 30-mins by car from Switzerland and the Swiss city of Lugano - and 45-mins from the Italian city of Como. Lake Como enjoys its own lakeside ferry service and features the gorgeous town of Bellagio, plus Villa Carlotta - try spotting George Clooney's villa. Further visits can be made to Lake Garda and the smaller Italian Lakes. We recommend the 'AA Guide to The Italian Lakes' for good information, in particular its 'Top Ten', all of which are easy day-excursions from the apartment (available from AA Publishing).

Milan: An advantage of Italy is your access to low-cost trains. A 60-min commuter train (90-min normally) takes you to Milan city centre. The city is famous for shopping, fashion, rich history - and its cathedral, a forest of stone pinnacles, totally OTT. It's a short metro train ride to Santa Maria delle Grazie and da Vinci's fantastic oil painting 'THE LAST SUPPER', now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Book a 15-min time slot, like a private viewing, at the English language website http://www.cenacolovinciano.org/english/index.html. Pinch yourself, you're standing in front of the world's greatest masterpiece. Milan, one of the premier cities of Europe, is worth an overnight stay. There are hundreds of inexpensive restaurants & hotels. Opera is available to the man-in-the-street in Italy - so buy seats at La Scala, described as the world's favourite opera house in '1000 Places To See Before You Die'. Italy has 63 entries - La Scala is number 26 (Page 203). This city has buzz!

'A little untouched piece of paradise and to wake up to that view in the morning, well... I am not pleased to be back home! Manager Laura was great, a lovely person' - Jacqueline.
'... the first two days looking at the view from the apartment. It exceeded all our expectations. Other lakeside places are beautiful with Cannobio voted our favourite village and Stresa our favourite town' Joan & Vince.
“A lovely place. The ferry terminal in Luino allowed us relaxing, car-free journeys to lovely lakeside villages and towns. We particularly enjoyed the ‘100 Valley’ boat & train ride from Luino to Locarno and back to Stresa - and the beautiful gardens of Isola Bella. Definitely a place to revisit” Dorothy and Bob.
'We think it's lovely - the children are at home here. They say it reminds them of our beach house in Australia - and they are right. Got the internet working thanks to Laura. She is such a delightful person.' Rob.
'It's a ripper of a place, even the spa pool worked!' Peter.

Review Submitted: December 5, 2008 Date of Stay: September 2008
What a spectacular area to visit with so many beautiful lakeside villages to visit for a pre lunch prosecco or post lunch espresso!

This property was in easy reach of the main attractions of the Lake including Bellagio Villa Carlotta Tremezzo and Lecco. The tunnel roads mean a fast journey if you don't always want the scenic route

The apartment itself was clean and comfortable and quite well furnished but if staying for 2 weeks I believe inclusive in price should be cleaning and change of linen and towels. English is not widely spoken and so I was glad of my Italian lessons before I went but extremely charming and helpful managers who would provide bread for breakfast and deliver pizza and fruit tarts as they were required.

A welcome pack of groceries would be enormously helpful although there is a huge hypermarket less than 10 mins drive awayand guidebooks in English and not just German. Local restuarant recommendations/lists would also add to the experience. We found lots of local ones and the food was always good as was the welcome and service except for one at the harbour area which I think was too expensive for what it was

Our family had a wonderful time and would recommend it as a base for this region but perhaps 7 - 10 days would be enough with a few days in Milan perhaps at the end of a lovely scenic stay
Recommended for:  Age 55+, Adventure Seekers, Sightseeing, Families with Young Children, Romantic Getaway
