Just 1 kilometre from Lake Maggiore, this villa overlooks rugged mountains and the Borromean Islands. The interiors may feel a little dated, but we suspect you’ll spend most of your time outdoors, lounging by the pool, dining alfresco in the gardens, or sipping cocktails on the terrace while a dedicated team takes care of the housework. Prefer to stay active? Work up a sweat in the gym, then unwind in the private spa complete with a hot tub and sauna. As for exploring, take the scenic route and hop on a ferry linking the lake’s charming towns and villages.
