Villa sul Lago - two apartments with pool and magnificent lakeview

In short the special characteristics: two apartments in a Renaissance villa dateing back to around 1400, with nice pool, situated above the lake Maggiore. The front of this impressive red house reveals rows of stately pillars, opening onto a courtyard – with three arches at ground level and a loggia on the first floor. This courtyard is home to a magnificent century-old magnolia tree, taller than the house itself. The pool, bordered by palm trees, is only a few steps away from here. This shared pool provides the bather with an outstanding view, over the deep blue water of the lake and across to the mountains in the background. Each apartment is fully equipped. The owners have recently renovated their house with great care and particular attention paid to the preservation of historical details. The wing offered here has been divided into two residential units for 5 and 4 people – each unit opening onto a seated area under the shared loggia.

Accommodation and Facilities for PARTE A at Lake Maggiore South, Piedmont, Italy

Villa sul Lago - surrounding

Massino Visconti is a peaceful village, situated above the lake (approx. 400 m above sea level). It is well known throughout the Lombard region as it used to be a center for the umbrella repair trade. The sights of the region and many inviting shops are all within easy reach: Arona and Stresa are a brief car journey away. Why not take the ferry from Stresa (10 km) to the picturesque Borromaic islands (Isola Madre, Isola Bella and Isola dei Pescatori), with the exquisite art gallery in the Palazzo Borromeo and the surrounding botanic gardens (opens from April 1st to October 31st ). The botanic gardens at the Villa Taranto, near Verbania (15 km) are also well worth a visit.

Highlights on the lake Maggiore

This villa is not only a personal tip for holidaymakers looking for a quiet spot, or for all those hooked on the most beautiful lake panoramas, but it is also a paradise for golf lovers. World-famous and fully equipped golf courses, which are visited by the best international golf players, are in the immediate vicinity of the villa: Alpino golf club (6 km) and, primarily, the renowned Des Iles Borromées golf club (4 km), which is an enchanting landscape park with fascinating vegetation and a mild microclimate all year round. The nearest tennis court and equestrian club are 4 km away in Lesa. Trekking tours through 'Val Grande' are a real experience; this wildlife park is the largest uninhabited area in Europe; however, you should make sure you are hiking only in the company of an experienced tour guide. Additionally, a multitude of water sports is offered on the nearby lake (3 km down the hill). The only thing you won't find is boredom.

some sports/skiing informations

Summer skiing can be done in Switzerland (90 km), Alpine-like and rock faces for free climbing can be found on the mountain slopes of Ossola (70 km), and those of you who aim higher still will find ideal wind conditions there for delta and hang gliding.
