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. 

Lake You a Lot 

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.

Il Chiostro d'Orta

Situated in a prime location overlooking Lake Como with a backdrop of mountains – the setting couldn’t be more dramatic. There’s an infinity swimming pool and terrace with wonderful views, while inside, the vistas continue to wow. Inside, there’s an open-plan living room and a cosy bar area – perfect for entertaining. And to make sure you have time to relax, a free breakfast is served daily by the private chef. For lunch, you can do some cooking in the stylish kitchen or visit one of the local restaurants a short stroll away.

The Lake Embrace

This mountain retreat is an excellent pick for a family or group of friends eager to explore the Swiss Alps. Whether you're visiting in the summer months or planning a winter getaway, you'll love relaxing in this cosy apartment between your adventures. 

Step inside, and you'll feel instantly at home – the natural wood and soft furnishings invite you to get comfortable and spend some quality time together. Light up the fire and get toasty with a mug of hot chocolate, or head outside to the balcony to breathe in the fresh air over a cool drink. And, the apartment complex even offers access to a sauna, where you can sweat out your stresses, and two swimming pools – take your pick from indoor or outdoor, depending on the season. 

Skiers can take a three-minute car ride over to Talstation Valbella Lift, to be one of the first people on the fresh powder each morning. When you're finished on the slopes, there are plenty of restaurants and bars where you can enjoy some après-ski fun after the last run of the day. And, if you're visiting in the summer months, you can lace up your walking boots or jump on your bike to explore the peaks and valleys of this incredible region.

Piping Hot Cocoa

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

Sports lovers, rejoice – this villa offers up its own private nine-hole golf course and tennis court, so you can stay active while soaking up the sun’s rays at your lakeside home. Set in an exclusive gated community, you’ll also find a private pool, private dock, bikes, canoes and a sailing boat, so if you love nothing more than some fun in the great outdoors, this villa will jump straight to the top of your holiday wish list. And if you’re not relaxing by or on the lake, how about a trip in the owner’s helicopter, to take in the sights from a different perspective? With peace and tranquillity mixed in, there’s something for everyone here. 

Lakeside Haze

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.

Borromeo

If you could pick up your home and place it anywhere in the world, an Italian, hillside spot with 180-degree views of Lake Maggiore would be a superb bet. Well, the dream location has already been snapped up by this Piedmont villa, and these panoramic scenes could not be any more beautiful. From the privacy of your infinity pool, balcony, and expansive, green garden, it feels as if the entire landscape is yours alone. Standing in a bold statement against its organic country setting, the bright red exterior offers a warm welcome and a colourful start to your stay. Inside, a monochrome theme cools things down with sharp edges, clean lines, and a sleek, modern, grey kitchen. Lunch doesn’t get any better than feasting upon local produce and wine from the renowned Piedmont vineyards. With the peaceful village of Magognino to call home, more shops, restaurants, and a picturesque promenade can be found down on the lake. From there, why not catch a ferry to explore magical islands, or the natural beauty of both Italy and Switzerland. Whether on land or water, there is nothing this home cannot offer you.

Naturally Nebbiolo

Tailor-made for two, this chic apartment promises a relaxing stay in Como. As you’d expect with a studio, space is limited here, but you’ll find everything needed for a comfortable stay. And the cherry on top for us is the outdoor space. Soak up the sun as you dine alfresco, kick back on a lounger with your holiday read, or simply drink in the views across Como and the lake. Location-wise, you’re mere minutes from the historic city centre and Lake Como, so whether you’re sightseeing, shopping or planning a meal out, this home will tick all your boxes. 

Como Classic

On the ground floor of a traditional chalet-style resort, this comfortable apartment offers sublime Alpine views and easy access to sensational ski slopes. Large windows dominate the living room, filling the space with light and offering the most scenic backdrop you could hope for. The simple styling makes for a homely feel, with big, plump sofas. The bedroom has its own private terrace, perfect for enjoying your morning coffee while you breathe in that crisp, clean mountain air. Set off to explore Grindelwald’s centre just minutes away, then take the gondola or the free ski bus to reach the pistes. After a day of fun in the snow, come back home for a fondue feast followed by a glass of mulled wine with a movie. In the summer, the area offers countless hiking and cycling trails to explore, as well as canoeing and river rafting for the more adventurous. 


Frosted Pine

Designed and decorated with pure romance in mind, this spacious apartment is the ideal spot for a getaway for two. Love will be in the air as soon as you step inside, where you’ll be greeted by six lakefront windows, original 18th-century frescoes and Venetian mosaic floors – all adding a historic grandeur and elegance to the space. A king-sized bedroom with a beamed ceiling overlooks a portico framed by arcades and granite columns. With the option to set the entire place up for the perfect marriage proposal, including a candlelit dinner, a photographer and more, this gorgeous home is the perfect place for a life-changing stay. There's also a shared pool, Jacuzzi, in-house spa, and a lakefront beach – we're sold.

A Romantic Rendezvous

On the shores of Lake Orta, this adults-only apartment invites you to rest and recharge. There are beautiful views from the private balcony and the rooms have been thoughtfully designed to bring calm to your stay. You will receive a generous breakfast basket and there’s a shared wellness area with a Jacuzzi as well as an outdoor swimming pool and private beach. Your host can help organise a range of special experiences, including room service and water sports. Plus, it's just a short drive to Orta San Giulio – also known as the Pearl of Lake.
