Holiday home "Casa Vecchia" with mountain views

Who feels at home here
Individual travellers, nostalgic travellers, young couples, active retirees and all people who like to turn their backs on mass tourism and are looking for something special instead.

About the accommodation
Those who come to Casa Vecchia embark on a short journey back in time to Ticino 400 years ago. The old walls with the typical winding room layout have been faithfully preserved. The charming kitchen utensils, mirrors, lamps, curtains and decorations also make nostalgic hearts beat faster. Quietly and idyllically situated on a south-facing slope, with a marvellous view over Lake Maggiore, you can spend unforgettable hours here far away from tourist standards.
The best months for travelling to Casa Vecchia are March to October, as there is no comprehensive heating here. On cool evenings, you can enjoy the warmth in front of the large fireplace on the ground floor. Only the bathroom on the first floor is heated electrically.

Room layout
The rustic kitchen with cosy dining area is located on the ground floor of Casa Vecchia. The upper two floors, each with a bedroom and balcony, can only be reached via the steep external staircase. From the eat-in kitchen, you step directly into the garden under the pergola and reach a seating area surrounded by palm trees.
