Francesco's reviews
As a host (7)“Beautiful location, nice property, accurate - smooth communication”
“We spent New Years here and it was wonderful to see all the fireworks around the lake. When we arrived the heating was already on making it very comfortable. The home is charming and the views amazing. Thanks!”
“The lovely vacation home in Lombardia was a great place to spend two weeks. The home is situated on a hill overlooking Lake Maggiore and to reach it by car requires skill and nerve (typical of narrow roads in Italy).The village is 500 steps down a cobbled path where there is a small supermarket . ”
“We stayed here for four nights and it was very pleasant. The location of the property is fabulous, with amazing views over Lake Maggiore. The house was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Francesco's mother was available by phone if we needed anything, but it was not necessary. September was a great time to visit as it was not so crowded with tourists. We found this property to be an excellent base from which to explore northern Italy and Switzerland, and it was very easy to get to from Milan airport (about 90 minutes away). Highly recommended. Thank you Francesco!”
“Thanks to Francesco we had a great vacation with our 14 year olds. Francesco found a sailing school for us, and organised the activities for the kids. Like a travel agency :) The hosts communication was just perfect; always quick responses and really helpful.”
“Love the location on the Lake. The view is wonderful Day and Night. The Kitchen worked well for us with access to local Markets. There is a wonderful series of Walks throughout the area. We recommend it, we had a wonderful 2 week vacation”
