[Since I made a mistake in my first review, this is a corrected version.]
This was an adorable, spic and span apartment with a spectacular view of Lago Maggiore from every window and from the balcony in front of the house. The surrounding area is very quiet and restful, but one can go swimming, sight seeing, boating, walking and hiking, biking, golfing, and sipping cafe at the water's edge in beautiful Ascona (ten to twelve minutes away). The apartment is very tastefully decorated and we found fresh flowers in our rooms. There are also games and a wonderful selection of books that the proprietor leaves for her guests. The kitchen has a new electric, ceramic glass top, there's a dish washer, coffee machine, and sizeable refrigerator. There's no TV (which is a blessing) but wireless internet connection and a radio with built-in MP3 and CD.There is also a lot of cultural offerings in nearby Locarno and Ascona including film festivals, jazz festivals and classical music opportunities. Proprietor is helpful and friendly.
