Breakfast was delicious with plenty of options, including gluten free breads, which I especially appreciated as I have an intolerance. The bed was comfortable and there were plenty of clean towels."

"Very friendly staff. My shower seems to have been blocked as the water had built up and sadly there was a gap in the frame for the water to escape, it flooded the bathroom but the staff couldn’t have been better or faster to deal with it. This isn’t a complaint I just felt it should be mentioned."

VILLA MAGNOLIA Lake Maggiore

VILLA MAGNOLIA Lake Maggiore

8/10 Good
"This is a unique find, we enjoyed the history of the property. Typical Italian streets to maneuver to get to the huge villa and the gate entrance is tricky with a bigger vehicle. The villa rental part is just a portion of the house but plenty of room, 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. Kitchen good but if you want breakfast order in advance. English is not one of the owners languages but he uses phone to translate. There are no laundry facilities as stated on expedia but the owner generously washed our clothes for us so that tells you what a wonderful host he and his wife are. I would truly recommend this villa."
