Description Just The View: Massino Visconti

This apartment is part of a 15th-century estate and offers a taste of Italian tradition. It's set in Massimo Visconti, an easy drive from Stresa. We love the communal garden, with its sun-kissed terraces and all-important swimming pool. Although other guests have access to the pool and patios, we think the Lake Maggiore views make sharing worth the effort. It's no surprise the interior is old-world in every sense – we find the design charming but it won't suit everyone. Alongside the two-bedroom apartment, there's a small single room that could work well for guests wanting more privacy.

Home truths:
*This home consists of a two-bedroom apartment split across two levels, plus an additional room with a single sofa bed and bathroom. Your host owns several apartments here, so the exact view, layout and furnishings may differ slightly from the photos.
*This apartment is part of a villa complex. You'll have access to the communal gardens, terrace, and pool. All apartments share a large patio upstairs. You'll likely see and hear your neighbours.
*The communal pool is available to use between June and September. It's unfenced, so children will need to be supervised.
*We highly suggest hiring a car in this area. There's on-site parking here, but please note that there are about fifteen steps from the parking area to reach the garden.
