Romantic Ticino holiday home on the Lago Maggiore with a fantastic lake view

Semi-detached house (if you are in front, left part, with glass door) of an old Ticino stone house in an exclusive location near Locarno, quiet and well developed. Here you will find old Ticinese charm that is so hard to find in the area, yet still able to relax in a well-kept and relaxed atmosphere. Since the house is on the hillside, you should not shy away from stairs. All rooms are south-facing with views of Lake Maggiore and the mountains opposite. The nearly four hundred year old house is renovated, furnished in style and can be centrally heated by a stove. The kitchen leads directly onto the south-facing terrace with views as far as Cannobio. The bedrooms and bathroom are accessible from the back of the house. The bathroom is equipped with high quality and electrically heated. In each bedroom there is a double bed (200 x 180 cm) with two mattresses (200 x 90 cm each, two blankets each with a standard size of 200 x 135 cm). Above the garage there is another terrace where you can admire the panorama in the evening for a long time in the sunshine. The spacious garden is maintained regularly, so that you are surrounded from March by colorful flowers. Behind the house you can retire on a large lawn. In just a few minutes you are in the center of Brione with shops and nice restaurants. It takes about 10 minutes by car or 30 minutes to walk to Locarno. The nearest bus stop is about 200 meters from the house. The picturesque valleys of Ticino can be reached quickly by car. There are countless hiking trails in the immediate vicinity. In spring you can enjoy the camellia and magnolia bloom at a time when it is still gray and cold in the north. In summer, a beach holiday at the Lido in Locarno / Ascona or at the many pools of the rivers next to the extensive cultural offer (https://www.ascona-locarno.com/de/). Autumn is often warm for a long summer, so you can ignore the winter and the cold for a while on walks or while bathing.

Tolle Unterkunft
Die Unterkunft mit mehreren Aussensitzplätzen bietet eine fantastische Aussicht über den Lago Maggiore und ist ideal zum Entspannen unter Palmen! Die Wohnlage ist ruhig und dennoch ist die nächste Bäckerei in wenigen Minuten zu Fuss erreichbar.

VRBO Advertisement and some information didn't match the actual outcome of this rental
The cottage was quaint and clean, and views of Lake Maggiore were beautiful, however, the directions to the cottage could have been much more detailed. There were no instructions and information about the keys and our rooms. Thank goodness someone was staying in the other apartment and she was kind enough to help us out. In the VRBO advertisement on the Internet it listed towels and linens were included. Later the owner sent an email asking if we would need towels and sheets. I responded yes (I didn't pack towels and sheets for my European vacation) and I was charged €50+ for one set of the skimpiest towels and one fitted sheet. I informed the owner that it clearly states towels and linens provided, but she went ahead and deducted the amount from my deposit anyway.

Traumhafte Woche
Wir durften eine traumhafte Woche in zauberhafter Atmosphäre genießen. Der Blick auf den Lago ist unübertroffen. Die Aufteilung der Räume hat uns zugegebener Maßen anfangs irritiert, aber ich kann nur jedem raten, sich darauf einzulassen, dann kann man in diesem Haus einen wunderbaren und erholsamen Urlaub verbringen. Wir freuen uns schon auf das nächste Mal.
