Views of Northern Italy's peaceful Lake Maggiore don't come much better than this. It's a scene best admired from the private balcony of this smart townhouse perched on the hillsides overlooking the Borromeo's islands. Inside, the newly refurbished, pared-back interiors are perfect for a fuss-free stay for two, and the pretty suntrap garden to soak up the Italian sunshine is a nice touch. You'll need a car here as it's pretty remote with no amenities to walk to – but don't let that put you off. Stresa's regal seafront promenade and cobbled streets bustling with trattorias are just a five-minute drive away.

Revealing panoramic views over Lake Maggiore, this scenic spot invites guests to reconnect with nature from day dot. Surrounded by scenery that stretches from the lake and over the mountains – it's no surprise that the apartment's best feature is its balcony. Gazing out at the views with a coffee in hand each morning will soon become a daily ritual. If cooking or sampling the local culinary delights are on the agenda, the kitchen and dining area allow you to do so in plain sight of the beautiful vistas. Located just a five-minute drive from Stresa, with an array of shops and restaurants, you'll also be just a few minutes by car from the local golf clubs here.

This seventeenth-century palace by Lake Orta delivers the ultimate five-star experience. It underwent a total refurbishment recently and while the original architecture has been restored, luxurious finishes and modern comforts have been introduced in all its spaces. Expect open fireplaces, coffered ceilings, incredible original art and designer furniture throughout. Every bedroom and its en-suite are of an equally high standard so all guests are guaranteed a memorable stay. Other highlights include the heated indoor pool and spa, the library and music room, and you can't possibly miss the wonderful views across the lake from the top floor. Like the rest of the home, its courtyard garden is super private – perfect for romantic candlelit dinners, and you'll also find daybeds for catching some rays. While staying in the palace, a trip to the Sacro Monte di Orta is a must – this remarkable site is perched high on a hill and is on the UNESCO World Heritage list.

Umbrellas

We were sold on those views of Lake Maggiore alone – and that was before we'd even clapped eyes on the panoramic sunny terrace and newly refurbished interiors of this townhouse. As we're finickity, the downstairs living space feels a little bijou, but with that covered panoramic balcony outside, we don't think you'll mind. And kids will love the novelty of the top-floor mezzanine bedroom with a TV den to spill out into. Perched amidst the hillsides, 700 metres above the lake, you're quietly removed from the bustle. But when it's time to dip your toes into lakeside living, Stresa's grand promenades and history-rich streets bustling with trattorias are just a five-minute drive away.

When you step inside this 17th–century villa, there’s a sense of being transported to another time and place. With its atmospheric presence and poetic beauty, it’s the kind of home that’s been designed for beautiful gatherings. 

Set within the charming village of Baveno, just a short drive from Milan, this is the perfect setting for friends and family to celebrate in traditional Italian style. The communal spaces feel intimate and personal – with artistic details that inspire curiosity and intrigue. 

Follow the creative spirit through the pink inner patio and into the kitchen – this is a wonderful place to cook and socialise. No doubt you’ll be inspired to take your morning coffee outside and into the gardens. With views across Lake Maggiore and the famous Borromeo Islands, it’s easy to get lost in the magic of this setting. Spend slow days by the swimming pool, reading beneath the trees and enjoying long lunches on the terrace. 

It’s only a short walk from this home onto the main boulevard of the village where you can pick up any supplies. Or wind your way around the lake, stopping in a local cafe to admire the views.

As the sun sets across the mountains, you’ll love coming together around the large dining table to raise a glass of local wine, and share the beauty of Italian living. 

The Sofia Rose

Shared Pool

This apartment is part of a 15th-century estate and offers a taste of Italian tradition. It's set in Massimo Visconti, an easy drive from Stresa. We love the communal garden, with its sun-kissed terraces and all-important swimming pool. Although other guests have access to the pool and patios, we think the Lake Maggiore views make sharing worth the effort. It's no surprise the interior is old-world in every sense – we find the design charming but it won't suit everyone. Alongside the two-bedroom apartment, there's a small single room that could work well for guests wanting more privacy.

Mountain Love

Just when we thought we'd unearthed the most charming home in tranquil Lake Orta, this little gem pops up to say ciao. Tucked away in the romantic hillsides fringing the lakeside, history is everywhere to see inside this home. Exposed beams, cool terracotta floors, shuttered windows, and a wooden balcony encasing it all bring the character. While elsewhere, this place speaks to a more contemporary audience with an effortlessly cool lounge (the canvas butterfly chairs are inspired) and a fully kitted-out kitchen with a coffee machine for obligatory morning expressos.

Upstairs, you'll find two light-filled and airy bedrooms with access to the balcony and a lakeside view you could savour forever. But on hot summer days, it's downstairs in that suntrap terrace where we think you'll be whiling away your days – if you have any downtime, that is. With the captivating medieval village of Orta San Giulio just a twenty-minute walk away, and a Nonna-style bistro and restaurant for an authentic taste of Northern Italian cuisine even closer (a ten-minute amble), we suspect you'll out and about a lot. And when it's time to up the ante with some fun on the water, the lake's lido, Spiaggia Miami, is just a six-minute drive away. Or charter a boat for the day – the home has its own private dock on the lake to set sail from, don't you know.

On chilly evenings gather around the fire or get some rest in the stylish bedrooms with their ornate wallpaper.

Gaze out onto views of the lake and its surrounding mountains – gorgeous at any time of day. 
 
At the end of the night, your comfortable bedroom waits to drift you into a peaceful night’s sleep, leaving you rested and ready for another day of fun. 
 
Speaking of adventures that await, you’ve also got access to a resident’s garden across the street where a diving board is primed to let you jump straight into Lake Lugano’s crystal clear waters. You’re also a fourteen-minute stroll from Parco Panoramico Paradiso, while countless restaurants, shops and bars wait to be discovered along the water’s edge.
