Great view with a few caveats
Overall we really enjoyed our stay. Especially the view is great and the garden is ideal for kids, (fully fenced!) and well taken care of (the gardener arrived just when we left). There's a slide, a grill and an inflatable kids pool which made a big difference! Also we were happy with the nice baby bed. And communication with the owner was excellent. But there are a few drawbacks: - unfortunately there are cables running right across the view - the kitchen is extremely poorly equipped. there was not a single frying pan or working knife and only one cutting board. Also the toaster is more of a bread warmer than anything else. It would have been nice of the owner had supplied a few tubs for the dishwasher - the shower head in one of the bathrooms fell off on our second day - it just seems like it was worn out. One of the toilets flushes so violently that water spills over the edge. - as mentioned in the ad there is no parking nearby so luggage have to be carried from the car to the house (about 200m, rocky path) Overall we had a great week. We would have expected a better kitchen for that price though.

Shabby chic with a great view
My family and I stayed here for two weeks. It is a beautiful location high above the lake. It was very roomy, affording plenty of space for three couples to spread out and have privacy. The yard is wonderful. We cooked in the kitchen every day and had family meals. It has everything you need except bring our own knives, we couldn't even sharpen what was there. The twin beds on the second floor need to be replaced. We found a mattress on the third floor and placed it on the worst just to be to be able to sleep. When you lay on it you literally sink to the bottom. There were no pillows on the twin beds either although we found some and no pillow cases. We knew to bring our own towels but there really should be towels there. We had to find the modem box in the attic to find the internet password. We left it written on a note on the bulletin board in the kitchen for the next guests. This should have been there as well as the location of the laundry, behind door number three. All in all we had a wonderful time there as we expected from other reviews these few problems.

A comfortable house with fantastic views.
The house is generally comfortable with a fantastic view of the lake and a nicely maintained garden and outdoor area. You need to park the car in a car park and walk a couple of hundred metres uphill to get to the house. It is not the house to choose if you have mobility issues.There were four adults and two children in our party and the house was large enough to accomodate us all comfortably. The furnishings are basic and what you might expect in a holiday house. The single mattress on one of the beds was very uncomfortable with springs virtually exposed but otherwise the beds were fine. You should also be aware of the fact that while the web site says linen is supplied it should mention that towels were not. This creates difficulties as it is not the usual practice in our experience and we do not expect to need to include six bath towels in our luggage. We found a random selection of towels in a cupboard in the house that included two bath towels and some hand towels with which we made do. We enjoyed our stay here, in particular the lovely views and quiet rural location.

Ruhige Lage und fantastischer Seeblick!
Das wunderschöne Haus liegt ein wenig abgelegen am Ortsrand in Hanglage. Außergewöhnlich schön ist vor allem auch der Garten mit fantastischem Seeblick, in dem wir sehr viel Zeit verbracht haben. Man muss vom Parkplatz ein paar Meter laufen, um dorthin zu kommen, das hat uns aber nicht weiter gestört. Das Haus war sauber, die Betten sind sehr bequem. Die Küche war mit allem Nötigen ausgestattet, einen kleinen Supermarkt gibt es am Ort. Eine großartige Pizzeria ist fußläufig erreichbar und wenn man fit ist, kann man ohne Weiteres zu Fuß zur Badestelle laufen - die Herausforderung ist dann der Rückweg mit einigen Höhenmetern. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und können das Haus uneingeschränkt empfehlen.

Fine house with fine garden, beautiful view!
We had a nice stay. The landlord was very quick to respond to any message. The house is here and there a little flawed and not super clean. The kitchen is pleasantly large and we could keep the bedrooms cool. The dog had a great vacation in the garden. Less pleasant was that the gardener and the cleaner arrived on the day of departure at 9.30 am in the garden, so we felt pressured to leave.

Uriges Haus in toller Lage
Wir haben den Aufenthalt mit vier Kindern und Hund sehr genossen. Wer es ruhig mag und nicht den ganz großen Komfort braucht, der ist hier gut aufgehoben. Die Küchenausstattung mit großem Gasherd und einem großem Kühl-/Gefrierschrank passt, ein paar mehr Gläser und Tassen wären nicht schlecht gewesen. Die Badezimmer und Schlafzimmer sind o.k., ist halt ein altes Haus. Klar, man muss die letzten 100 Meter zum Haus zu Fuß zurücklegen, aber das wussten wir vorher. Das Haus punktet einfach mit der grandiosen Aussicht, dem urigen Flair und den wirklich sehr netten Nachbarn (damit sind nicht die lästigen Mücken gemeint).

Fantastischer Blick, tolles Haus
Das Haus liegt am ende der Ort, sehr schön und ruhig, mit herrlichem Blick über den Lago Maggiore. Viel Platz, gut ausgestattete Küche. Parken muss man unten, bis zum Haus ist 2-3 Minuten zu Fuß. Wunderschöne Terrasse und ein gepflegter Garten. Wir haben die Woche in dem Huas sehr genossen.
