Single-Level Home

Sharing its outdoor pool with just one other apartment, this modern home sits in large gardens, in a quiet spot overlooking the rolling hills – the blue of Lake Garda just visible across the trees. With lovely lawns, old olive trees and plenty of green all around, it's a comfortable and practical home-from-home. 

Inside, it's a ground floor apartment well suited to family life. Modern in design, its big windows and spacious rooms keep it bright and sociable, with all eyes on the view to the rear. There's a well kitted-out kitchen and a dining table inside, but we think you'll be spending much of your time eating on the covered terrace. 

After breakfast, head to the gated outdoor pool for a morning of swimming and playing on the trampoline, or hop in your car and you'll be by the lakeshore in a little over five minutes. 

From your home, it's a short walk into the village of Soiano del Lago, with its grocery shop and small restaurants, making this the ideal choice for a quiet family holiday away from the hustle and bustle of the busy resorts. Drive to the nearby beaches for fun at the lake, or spend a day at one of the nearby amusement parks – Gardaland is around half an hour's drive away.

Rooftop Terrace

This charming home is a pastel-toned delight. Chandeliers and peach hues combine to create a home that could be a Sofia Coppola set, with screen-worthy views to boot. Spread over two floors, this home is full of thoughtful touches to make your stay memorable for all the right reasons. 

Start your day on the spacious terrace, drinking in the breath-taking views of the lake while sipping your morning coffee. Whip up breakfast in the elegant stone-tiled kitchen then plan how to spend your day. We could easily spend hours in the rooftop pool, lazily floating in the sunshine with a backdrop of exquisite scenery. 

After you’ve dried off in the sun, head into the historic centre of Padenghe and enjoy lunch in a trattoria. Wander the streets with a gelato, or call into cafes for coffee and watch the world go by – there’s no need to rush, you’re in Italy after all. The jewel in Padenghe’s crown is undoubtedly the castle; whether you’re a history buff or you’re just in it for the views of Garda, it’s well worth strolling five minutes up the hill to explore. Further afield, beautiful Sirmione is less than ten miles away. 

However you spend your stay, make sure you spend at least one evening on the terrace with a glass of something local, watching the sun set slowly over the lake. If you’re anything like us, you’d kick yourself for missing it.

Offering breathtaking views over Lake Garda’s sparkling waters and direct access to the shoreline, this home is a tranquil paradise. Set across five cascading terraces, this spacious home is all about outdoor living – from the private pool and diving board to a rooftop sun terrace and tennis court. Whether you’re enjoying dinner under the pergola, strolling to the local trattoria, or simply soaking up the view with a glass of local Chiaretto rosé, this place has a way of slowing time. Plus, Moniga’s charming harbour and castle are just moments away, waiting to be explored.

Centuries-old, this farmhouse located in the heart of the Euganean Hills National Park is steeped in history. Owned by the noble Papafava dei Carraresi family since the thirteenth century, the home entwines its charming rural setting with hundreds of years of family history to create a unique space that is sure to captivate the curiosity of its guests. 

Across the property, you'll find numerous different seating areas designed around the arts of relaxation and socialising. The space is idyllic for those in larger groups or celebrating special occasions such as family reunions, birthdays and weddings.

When the sun comes out, there's no better place to soak up some vitamin D than from around the garden's elegant swimming pool. Perch in one of the recliner chairs under the sun umbrellas with a book in hand, before going for a stroll around the herb and flower gardens that surround the villa. 

Located in a private park spreading over 300 acres of rolling hills and green meadows, the home rests at the foot of the Euganean Hills National Park – meaning country strolls or bike rides (with bikes provided by the host) in the local vicinity are simply a must. Soak up the fresh country air fragranced by the wildflowers, fruit trees and plants that grow here. The entire local area offers infinite peace and serenity, yet it remains within easy reach (by car) of other small towns and villages of the region – not to mention the city of Venice which is just a fifty-minute drive away. 

When coming together as a group, serve up alfresco barbecued meals under the pergola paired with local Italian wine. For games nights, get competitive over a round of ping pong before settling down in the living area or suite bedrooms (spread across the main house and the annexe) for more tranquil moments of relaxation.

Housed in a historic building, this apartment is situated in the Riviere Esterne neighbourhood of Padua. While you'll need to take the stairs up to the home's entrance, it has two small balconies – one overlooking the district’s internal canal and another over the Riviera Paleocapa. If you need to catch up on work, there’s a study area here too, but we bet you’d prefer to explore this cultural city. Known for its frescoes such as those in the Scrovegni Chapel, there’s plenty to see. The iconic Specola is a five-minute walk, while an eight-minute stroll will take you to Piazza Duomo and the centre of this university town is ten minutes on foot. 


A Little Dream of the Valley 

Located just a short walk from the centre of Florence, this Santa Maria Novella ticks all the important boxes for us, making it a functional base for city exploring. The fully equipped kitchen and large dining table let you enjoy a hearty breakfast before you head into town, and we like that the home gets plenty of natural light – always a nice way to start the day. When you want to explore, you'll find Strozzi Palace close by, as well as Florence Santa Maria Novella station, connecting you to the rest of Tuscany and beyond.

In the charming town of Desenzano del Garda, among the ancient ruins and intricate mosaics, this fascinating home invites you to experience the history that lives within its walls. Dating back to the 1900s, this apartment has many tales to tell, having been built by a local winemaker in the 30s. 

Combining history and culture, the building has been beautifully restored and retains many of its original features. Think fine marble staircases, wrought iron railings and intricately carved window frames – stepping into this home will transport you back in time. The interiors are super homely with pops of sunshine yellow, which perfectly mirrors the exterior.
Open up the French doors and take a seat on the comfy sofa to enjoy your morning coffee and gaze at the spectacular views of the lake. The private balcony looks out over the piazza, and is the perfect place to breathe in some fresh air and watch the world go by. You'll be ideally situated for exploring both the town and the beach, giving you the best of both worlds. 

Known for its ancient ruins and artifacts, head to one of the local museums to learn more about this fascinating part of Italy. Desenzano Castle is just 450 yards away, which has enjoyed a rich and varied past – climb up to the tower entrance for incredible views over Lake Garda.

When dinner time comes around, you'll be spoilt for choice, with an array of authentic Italian restaurants practically on your doorstep. But if you fancy a quiet, more private meal, we recommend buying some fresh ingredients and then heading home to try cooking some local delicacies yourself, washed down with a glass of wine and a movie on the sofa.


Sunshine Square

If you dream of castles, breathtaking views, and beautiful interiors that are fit for a prince or princess, then this is the home for you. Perched above Lake Garda, this apartment is a wildly romantic spot – it's guaranteed to sweep you off your feet. 

The pastel colour palette creates a charming, almost whimsical feel, where you can settle into life by the lake. The checkered sofa is a lovely place to curl up with a glass of Italian red wine, while the kitchen invites you to whip up your favourite pasta dishes. Step outside onto the balcony, and you can gaze out across the water – from quick breakfasts to lavish dinners, the alfresco dining space is lovely at all times of the day. Plus, you even have access to a shared swimming pool – it doesn't get much better than this. 

Padenghe Castle, a medieval fort, is just a five-minute walk away, where you can stroll through the ruins and soak up the sense of history. The edge of the lake is just a five-minute drive away, and you can walk or cycle along the many trails nearby. And, if you're a golfer then you're in luck – two of the most popular courses are within a six-kilometre drive of the house. 

Fairytale Weekend

This luxurious apartment is located on the first floor and offers a comfortable living room with two sofas and a large LCD TV. The open and fully equipped kitchen flows into a spacious dining area with a large table. The highlight of this property is the stunning terrace with partial lake views, perfect for enjoying meals with friends and family. 

The apartment features a double sofa bed with a large wardrobe on the first floor, along with a modern bathroom equipped with a shower, hairdryer, WC, and bidet. On the second floor, you'll find another double bedroom, a twin bedroom, and a second bathroom with a shower.


The Barnyard Retreat

Parking On Premises

Situated in the hills of the Province of Parma, this historic home is an idyllic spot for nature lovers looking for relaxation. There’s a private swimming pool among the fruit trees and a large patio terrace featuring a dining table and outdoor lounge, where you can spend lazy afternoons with a spritz and a good book. Meanwhile, the interiors blend original features with modern home comforts. Although the decor feels dated in places and may not be to everyone's taste, the style is in keeping with the area’s rich heritage. 

Italian Lace

Experience peace and comfort on the banks of Lake Garda when you stay at this modern apartment, just ten minutes from the heart of Riva del Garda. The well-outfitted home comes with a large private terrace, boasting panoramic views over the staggeringly beautiful landscape that surrounds it.

Enjoy breakfast, lunch and dinner at the outdoor dining table, plus the odd aperitif – you are on holiday, after all. The balcony is shaded, which means you can enjoy the views and hilltop breeze without the sunshine overwhelming you. Inside, you'll find everything you need for a comfortable stay, from the inviting seating area to the fully equipped kitchen. Slide open the doors as you cook to let the warm Italian air waft in.

The town is famed for its ideal windsurfing conditions, so it would be a shame to leave without trying it out. If you're seeking a more laidback getaway, we suggest a gentle stroll around the fascinating Museo Alto Garda. Its unique collection of art and archaeology is housed in a historic former fortress.

Lakeside Lookout

This historic villa is in Gargano, a small town with a beautiful town centre, right on the shores of Lake Garda. There are restaurants and shops to explore nearby if you can tear yourselves away from the terrace, where you can admire breathtaking views of  Lake Garda. There’s an alfresco dining area and a private swimming pool, in addition to a garden spread over five levels. With its olive and lemon trees, fragrant bougainvillea, and ancient stone walls, it feels like something from a storybook. 


The Garden by the Lake

As soon as you approach this lovely home's building, you're greeted with a beautiful pond with a fountain and colourful fish – we felt an air of calm straight away. The garden has an even bigger pond – the shared swimming pool is perfect for cooling off in the Italian heat or simply relax with a book on the lounger.

Inside the apartment, there are characterful exposed beams and terracotta tiled floors. Another stand-out feature of this home is the main bathroom which has Swarovski crystals set in the furniture and on the washbasin – we do love a bit of bling.

Situated a few steps from Spiaggia D'oro and the centre of Desenzano del Garda, it has a fabulous location. If you have kids with you, there's a playground 50 metres away too.



Sparkling Crystals

Set on the banks of Lake Garda, this villa is as close to the water as you can get. And there’s no better place to soak up the views than from the private pool or on the dining terrace. Inside, a family or group of friends have plenty of space to spread out, and the kitchen is well-appointed for those who like to cook. While the bedrooms are comfortable, it’s worth noting there aren’t any bedside tables or reading lights. Keen to explore? The charming town of Lazise is a short drive away. 

Glorious Garda

Hot Tub

Nestled in a hillside estate on the western shores of Lake Garda, this contemporary villa offers beautiful panoramic views. Separated into three self-contained apartments with their own kitchenettes, this home is ideal for a group of friends who may want their own space and privacy. There’s plenty of communal space to come together and socialise too, with spacious gardens (where you can pick fresh lemons from the trees) and alfresco seating areas to enjoy. If you love the outdoors, this is the perfect home for you, with an array of hiking, biking, swimming and climbing spots close by.

A Painted View

Trash Compactor

Housed in an elegant building in the Piazza Duomo in Desenzano del Garda, this home has a fabulous setting. The apartment is located just 50 metres from Lake Garda and the many shops, bars and restaurants. It's just 150 metres from one of the lake's sandy beaches too.

Back at this apartment, relax on the balcony off the main bedroom with a glass of wine. Inside, we love the feature ornate fireplace in the open plan living space, but the real highlight here is the beautiful view of the city's cathedral from the main bedroom window (this room also has vibrant botanical wallpaper).

Later, if you don't fancy eating out, rustle up some risotto con la tinca (rice with fish and chard) in the modern kitchen and enjoy the fruits of your labour at your dining table. After a busy day, get ready for bed in the marble-clad bathroom with its large shower and then get some rest.



Pink Fuchsia

Set just outside the charming town of Salò, this is a period home with views stretching across the southern shores of Lake Garda. Surrounded by olive trees and mature gardens, this four-level villa blends classic Italian elegance with modern comforts, offering a warm and welcoming base for family getaways. Inside, original furnishings, a piano and a fireplace add timeless character, while the outside, the private pool, shaded veranda and barbecue area invite long, leisurely days under the sun, all just minutes from the lake.

Venetian Elegance

Designed by a well-respected 20th-century architect, this two-storey home on the Sirmio peninsula plants you onto sprawling lands that stretch out to a beach on Lake Garda. With stunning balcony views accessible to all the bedrooms and spots for alfresco dining, the outdoor areas are a big draw here, but the inside is a treat too. We were especially fond of the atmospheric study and elegant living room, both ideal spots for nightcaps. And despite the seemingly secluded location, you're not far from eateries, cafes, and historical sites here – and you won't want to miss the chance to take a boat trip on the lake. 

The Golden Gardens

A stone's throw from the sandy shores and harbour of Lake Garda lies this beautiful apartment, bathed in red. Spread over two floors, everyone will have the space to stretch their legs here. Lounge on the sofa in the open-plan living space while natural light fills the home, or breathe in the fresh air and lakeside views from the cosy balcony. The rich history of the building can be glimpsed in the touches of the original construction that were kept after the 2021 renovation – the wrought iron decor on the staircase railings, and the ornate windows. The traditional blends seamlessly with the modern, with the fully-equipped kitchen allowing you to whip up some fantastic home-cooked meals. That is, when you're not out exploring the dining opportunities that Desenzano del Garda has to offer.

The resort town of Desenzano del Garda has plenty for you to explore, whether by car or on foot. You'll be within easy walking distance of multiple restaurants and cafes, and you'll be just minutes from a stroll along the beautiful beaches and shores that line Lake Garda. For those looking to immerse themselves in the history and culture part of the town, head up to the Roman villa of Desenzano, where you can admire ruins and ancient mosaics. No matter what you're hoping to find on your trip – good food, beautiful scenery, wine tasting, boat tours, and a home away from home, you'll find it all in this little corner of Brescia.

Cherry Slate

A stone's throw from Lake Garda lies this beautiful apartment, dipped in green. Spread over two floors, everyone will have the space to stretch their legs here. Lounge on the sofa in the open-plan living space while natural light fills the home, or set your laptop up at the dining table to get some work done. The building's rich history can be glimpsed in the wrought iron decor on the railings and the ornately carved windows. The traditional blends seamlessly with the modern, with the fully-equipped kitchen allowing you to whip up some fantastic home-cooked meals – when you're not out exploring the dining opportunities that Desenzano del Garda has to offer, that is.
