About this property

The Painter's Nest + Lake Garden

Just 50 metres from bus and ferry stops, our cozy apartment offers a private garden with minimal shared use and direct access to the lake for refreshing swims or sunbathing. Despite its proximity to the road, noise is minimized by new windows and doors. Free public parking is available. Explore Menaggio (30 minutes) and Lugano (20 minutes). Nearby trails in the Valsolda region are a delight for mountain lovers. The interior features a dome painted by a renowned 19th-century local artist

Upstairs, the loft offers a cozy queen-size bed, complete with fresh linens and duvets. Downstairs, the sofa easily converts into an additional bed, perfect for other guests. The kitchen is equipped with a microwave (which also functions as an oven), a dishwasher, and all the necessary utensils for meal preparation. A washing machine is available at no extra charge within the condo. Outside, sun loungers in the garden provide a peaceful retreat under the open sky

For any assistance during your stay, a dedicated contact person will always be at your disposal.
