Once a barn, now a simple but cosy apartment for three. Sleeping arrangements are shared here, with the single bed on a raised mezzanine above the double bed. There's also a full kitchen and indoor and outdoor dining areas, and a desk for catching up on work or planning your trips to the lakes. It's easy from here, there's a lake a five-minute drive away, while Varese and Lugano are thirty minutes away. In the town of Cunardo, you'll find an array of authentic eateries and bars – plenty of spots for a pizza and an aperitivo with the locals.

Home truths
If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair for free. You'll need to request them in advance.
The single bed can be found above the double bed on a raised mezzanine connected by stairs, so there's minimal privacy.
There's no lift here. You'll need to be able to climb stairs to reach the entrance of the home.
Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay. There's a free public car park a fifteen-minute walk away.

About Lake Maggiore
A jewel in the crown of the Italian lakes, a trip to Lake Maggiore is, in fact, an international affair.
