Verona Large Homes

Above the Lake

• 15 guests

• 7 bedrooms

Gargnano, Brescia

With stop-and-stare views of Lake Garda (which is a short walk away), this villa is perfect for a family holiday or group getaway. The sunny gardens are our favourite feature – there’s a scenic swimming pool overlooking the lake, plus plenty of shaded spots to laze with a good book.

Cortina d'Ampezzo, Belluno

There are a lot of things we like about this lodge in the Alpine village of Cortina d'Amprezzo, but we'd be lying if we didn't single out the rather lovely view from the balcony as our standout highlight – from this spot, it's possible to gaze out over the locale's rooftops and dramatically beautiful mountains beyond. Back inside, the interior design is as rustic as you might imagine, with an abundance of wood in everything from the walls and floors to the furnishings and finishes.

Veneto Sweet

Piombino Dese, Padua

Situated in the Veneto region of Italy, this apartment is located within a Palladian villa originally built in the 16th century. You can expect grand architecture and beautifully-kept grounds, which contain a communal swimming pool and plenty of space for the little ones to run around.
