Fairytale Weekend Lake Garda, Lombardy

Property Description

If you dream of castles, breathtaking views, and beautiful interiors that are fit for a prince or princess, then this is the home for you. Perched above Lake Garda, this apartment is a wildly romantic spot – it's guaranteed to sweep you off your feet.

The pastel colour palette creates a charming, almost whimsical feel, where you can settle into life by the lake. The checkered sofa is a lovely place to curl up with a glass of Italian red wine, while the kitchen invites you to whip up your favourite pasta dishes. Step outside onto the balcony, and you can gaze out across the water – from quick breakfasts to lavish dinners, the alfresco dining space is lovely at all times of the day. Plus, you even have access to a shared swimming pool – it doesn't get much better than this.

Padenghe Castle, a medieval fort, is just a five-minute walk away, where you can stroll through the ruins and soak up the sense of history. The edge of the lake is just a five-minute drive away, and you can walk or cycle along the many trails nearby. And, if you're a golfer then you're in luck – two of the most popular courses are within a six-kilometre drive of the house.
