Sunshine Square

Holiday Rental Description

In the charming town of Desenzano del Garda, among the ancient ruins and intricate mosaics, this fascinating home invites you to experience the history that lives within its walls. Dating back to the 1900s, this apartment has many tales to tell, having been built by a local winemaker in the 30s.

Combining history and culture, the building has been beautifully restored and retains many of its original features. Think fine marble staircases, wrought iron railings and intricately carved window frames – stepping into this home will transport you back in time. The interiors are super homely with pops of sunshine yellow, which perfectly mirrors the exterior.
Open up the French doors and take a seat on the comfy sofa to enjoy your morning coffee and gaze at the spectacular views of the lake. The private balcony looks out over the piazza, and is the perfect place to breathe in some fresh air and watch the world go by. You'll be ideally situated for exploring both the town and the beach, giving you the best of both worlds.

Known for its ancient ruins and artifacts, head to one of the local museums to learn more about this fascinating part of Italy. Desenzano Castle is just 450 yards away, which has enjoyed a rich and varied past – climb up to the tower entrance for incredible views over Lake Garda.

When dinner time comes around, you'll be spoilt for choice, with an array of authentic Italian restaurants practically on your doorstep. But if you fancy a quiet, more private meal, we recommend buying some fresh ingredients and then heading home to try cooking some local delicacies yourself, washed down with a glass of wine and a movie on the sofa.
