Location and what's nearby

Corso Belvedere, 88, 28823 Ghiffa VB, Italy

Lake Maggiore is Italy’s second largest lake, offering inspirational mountain scenery that famously featured in Ernest Hemingway’s novel A Farewell to Arms. Marvel at the spectacular vistas from the shore or hop on a boat from the private jetty to the Borromean Islands, known for their grand villas and gardens.

A lakeside location wouldn’t be worth its salt if there wasn't an array of watersports and aqua-based activities on offer, and there are options to kite surf on the lake itself, enjoy the nearby Monte Tamaro Adventure Park or, if you’re feeling extra adventurous, take a zip line over the lake. For a more sedentary experience, perhaps enjoy a boat ride to Isola Bella for its 17th-century Palazzo Borromeo, while Golf Club des Iles Borromées provides views of four lakes and mountains, just a half-hour drive away.
