House on the lake Maggiore - Stresa (Italy)

“What an amazing place Our time in Maurizio and Majkens apartment was wonderful The villa is right on the lake and their apartment has doors onto the garden and access to little beach. The huge terrace has magnificent views over lake and Isola Bella and other islands It is probably the best position in Stresa. We did not use a car there was so much to see by boat We did not get everything done but will definitely return as soon as possible Maurizio is very quick getting back you and helpful if you have questions PS Stresa smells of apricots”

“Un séjour très très sympathique dans la région des lacs italiens (presque trois semaines), La région est superbe et offre de nombreuses possibilités de visites, L'appartement est très agréable avec une mention très spéciale naturellement pour la terrasse qui est splendide avec une vue extraordinaire, Nous avons apprécié la personnalité sympathique de Maurizio et de son épouse, Nous recommandons vivement cet échange ! A très bientôt sur Parigi !”

“We had a great week in this historic apartment. We arrived by train and Maurizio was kind enough to collect us from the station which is just a short drive. The apartment is set in a beautiful building on the lakefront and has large well kept gardens. Although it was a hot week, the apartment kept cool and after a long day sightseeing, it was a very comfortable place to return to. The pretty walk along the promenade into the centre of Stresa takes around 10 minutes and passes bars and restaurants along the way. The apartment is very well equipped and clean and this fabulous location couldn't be better. The lakeside patio looks across the lake to the islands which are illuminated at night. A ten minute walk along the lake took us to a smaller harbour than Stresa and there were plenty boats to the islands without queues. It was walking distance to the train station from where you can do day trips to Switzerland. When we left the Alibus picked us up just opposite the villa (outside Hotel Bristol) to go to Milan Malpensa airport, just perfect for us.”

“We had a superb week staying at Maurizio and Majken's Stresa apartment. The location was jaw dropping lay beautiful right in the lakeside with views over to the Borromean islands. We had a great time exploring the area based on the recommendations and information provided. The apartment was spotlessly clean and brilliantly included towels as we were traveling with small children. It was a great home from home and our children loved playing with some of the toys in the apartment which were kindly shared. All advance communication was by return of message by Maurizio and Majken came to welcome us despite our delayed flight and was at the end of a text during our stay. The weather was variable during our stay as autumn approached but we were cosy enough in the apartment as the thermostat was set so the heating came in automatically. All in all a great relaxing week exploring Lake Maggiore. Thanks so much ”

“Wow...just Wow! This property certainly exceeded our expectations, the views are just spectacular and the location is perfect! The property is within easy walking distance of the main town and therefore everything that you need for a perfect holiday is easily accessible. The property itself is far larger than it looks on the pictures, well furnished and very comfortable. Access to the gardens, internal courtyard and private beach, provide many options to spend time outdoors (just remember to pack lots of mosquito spray!) Communication was brilliant, Maurizio and his wife Majken were extremely accommodating and went out of there way to make sure our stay was straightforward and easy. They were always available to help with any queries that we had whilst we were there and provide recommendations or tips for places to eat, visit and shop. All the family loved it and were sad to leave at the end of the week. Thank you Maurizio and family for allowing us to stay in your lovely holiday home. ”
