With its wide-sweeping views over Lake Garda’s crystal clear waters and an enchanting blend of traditional and contemporary decor, this chalet-style villa is a bastion of natural beauty and an idyllic base from which to explore Lombardy’s largest lake.

Surrounded by verdant lawns with a bird’s eye vantage point over the lake, you can while away sunny days on the deck chairs as you take in the breathtaking vistas over cool drinks, good books and plenty of outdoor games. Mealtimes, meanwhile, call for barbecues beneath the vine-covered pergola and stargazing from the main bedroom’s balcony. And if that doesn’t tempt enough relaxation already, you’ve also got a private Finnish sauna on hand to ramp up your easygoing bliss even more.

Factor in the living room’s roaring fire, the traditional kitchen to cook up Italian feasts and a trio of charming bedrooms inviting a restful night’s sleep, and you’ll soon see why this villa is a slice of pure paradise.

When it comes to sightseeing, drive fifteen minutes to visit quiet Gargnano on the banks of Lake Garda where historic villas, palazzos, churches, gardens and fragrant lemon groves wait to be discovered. The lake itself also offers ample opportunities for mountain biking, tennis, horse riding, canoeing, sailing, windsurfing, pleasure boating, fishing and diving, and you’ve got even more leisure pursuits to enjoy around Valvestino Lake too, seventeen minutes away by car.
