- About The Experience
This villa is located near the southwestern end of Lake Maggiore in the Piedmont region of northern Italy, a kilometer from the lakefront village of Meina. The town has been inhabited since the Bronze Age. In the 1800's it became a holiday resort for the upper classes of Northern Italy. Today, with about two thousand inhabitants, Meina offers a selection of restaurants, shops, gelato shops, a market, and a bus stop. There is also a pizzeria just behind the villa itself. Meina also has a ferry, offering easy access to other areas of the lake. The train station in Arona, a few kilometers away, offers service to Milan which takes about an hour. Lake Maggiore as a whole offers visitors spectacular gardens, historic villas and castles, and medieval churches. An impressive number of natural parks dot the area, including the enormous Parco Nazionale dell Val Grande. Mountains provide impressive backdrops to the lake scenery, and each little village with its painted houses seems like a little terrace on the water. In the center of the lake, north of Meina, you can visit the enchanting Borromeo Islands, which hold palaces and gardens. In addition to exploring the local sights (by car or boat), you can also participate in many water-based sports, including sailing, water skiing, and canoeing.
