Enjoy a peaceful retreat at this renovated farmhouse apartment just fifteen minutes from the banks of Lake Garda. The characterful home enjoys its own private terrace, as well as shared access to a flower-filled communal garden and children's playground. With a range of water sports and scenic walks just a short drive away, there really is something for everyone – including your furry friends, if you choose to take them along.

Inside, the characterful home has been traditionally decorated with red and green accents (all we can see is the Italian flag!) letting the striking exposed stone ceiling do the talking. In the homely bedroom, double doors lead directly onto the terrace, so you can wake up and immediately step out into the morning sun.

The lakefront town of Gargnano is within easy reach. Here, you'll find picturesque streets lined with colourful centuries-old buildings. Choose a down-to-earth Italian restaurant to sample the local cuisine, and enjoy a creamy gelato as you stroll along the water. Don't leave without picking up a bottle of the region's wine to sip in your garden as the sun dips into the inky lake.
