We felt honored to be able to rent the historic villa. The renovation was done well, new windows, new flooring and stairs, just to name a few. Location was awesome. Hotel with a very good restaurant was walking distance.

De unieke ligging in een privé dal mét beek en het prachtige wandelpad daarlangs. Het huis was ruim en vooral de keuken lekker koel met de hitte die er was. Er is genoeg te doen in de omgeving. Boodschappen doen in Italië.

Oberhalb von Brissago mitten im Wald aber trotzdem nahe beim Dorf. Es ist speziell da man in einer Kirche wohnt.

Einzigartige Erfahrung die alleinigen Bewohner der Kapelle zu sein. Wunderbar gelegen, abgeschieden, ruhig, nur das Rauschen des Baches im Hintergrund. Zimmer/Küche komfortabel und gemütlich.

Es ist eine sehr empfehlenswerte und besondere Unterkunft mit Geschichte, Natur, Seeblick und man hat trotzdem alles fußläufig in der Nähe (See, Restaurants, Lebensmittelgeschäft). Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Gian Domenico hat uns sogar die Geschichte vom Palazzo erzählt und war immer da, wenn man Fragen hatte oder ihn brauchte - vielen Dank - super Gastgeber:)

Абсолютно потрясающий опыт! Жизнь в собственном трехэтажном доме с видом на озере и собственной церковью! А еще вы можете позвонить в колокола из вашего дома! На кухне есть все! Три спальни. Кондиционера нет - но он и не нужен, так как из окон дом...

L'emplacement était magnifique avec une vue directe sur le Lac Majeur, en plus de cela le logement était entièrement rénové et confortable dans un cadre inédit.
