Located in Laveno on the east side of Lake Maggiore, Carina del Lago is
a small, independent cottage for 4 people. It is part of a larger
estate where the beautiful villa
Bellezza
del Lago is located. Carina del Lago was formerly the
guardian’s house and is located at the entrance of the estate about 60
meters from the villa. The location is particularly quiet and
peaceful given the fact that it is located at the end of a dead end
road. It is 15 minutes by foot from Laveno.
Together, the two properties accommodate up to 14 -16 people and
provide a perfect place for a large family or gathering of
friends! Please see
Bellezza
Grande for a description of the combined property.
This accommodation is available for short stays for a minimum of four nights in certain mid and low season weeks. Please contact us for details.
