Bellavista

Sehr gut, schöne Lage mit fantastischer Aussicht. Im Haus findet man alles was man brauchen kann, vom Bügeleisen bis zum Toaster!

Der Ort und die Lage waren wunderschön und die Unterkunft hat alles, was man bracht (ist aber kein Luxus bzw. hochwertig, sondern mittelmäßig) - für uns passend.

In der Nachbarschaft, also die Häuser um uns herum, haben alle Hunde (wir auch), aber sie sind auch nachts draußen und bellen immer wieder, das hat uns auch mal wach gemacht.

The location is absolutely stunning and the apartment is top-notch. Everything works, is clean and well maintained. The quality of furnishings is way above the average of rental apts. Our host, Olga, was responsive and kind, and made it possible for us to enjoy a fantastic week. Some more practical info: the private parking space behind the property can accommodate two midsize cars. The kitchen is very well equipped and comes with countless practical items that you'll find useful (but did not bring with you). If you're a hiker, there are plenty of well-marked trails all around the village. The XII Century priory ("Canonica") is no more than 200 yards away but you need to find the right trail that leads to it. If you stand on the property's terrace overlooking the lake, directly below the left-side corner, there's a sign that points in the direction of Trail 207c, but this trail is nothing more than a meter-wide space between two fences that run up a steep hill. Climb that narrow path for a hundred meters or so and you will reach the top of the hill. Another hundred meters ahead, the "Canonica" will be on your right. For dining out, the "Cortiletto" restaurant lies three minutes away in the village center and is an absolute gem (closed on Thu.). If you like to drive around, I recommend the lakeside village of Porto Valtravaglia. Don't forget to check out the "Pasticceria dei Portici" for sandwiches and pastries (except Tues.). But there are dozens of other things you can do when staying in Brezzo, from visiting the open-air market in Luino (every Wed.) to taking a ferry boat ride across Lake Maggiore.

No complaints whatsoever. Except maybe the neighbors' dogs barking at everything that moves—but that's just a minor nuisance that did not spoil a great stay.
