**Why we love it... ** • The views take your breath away! • The lake, restaurants and bars are just a short walk away • The beautiful swimming pool surrounded by olive trees, perfect for hot summer days • The villa has three independent apartments making a perfect choice for families holidaying together! **Overview** Escape to a wonderful oasis at Villa Mansarda, a beautiful, privately owned villa nestled in the hills above the pretty town of Malcesine. Made up of 3 independent apartments, the villa is a classic Italian family home and offers spectacular lake views! Offering the best of both worlds, the villa is peacefully perched on the hill top, offering tranquility and a perfect place to sit back and relax and watch the lights glisten on the lake. If you fancy something a little more lively, the town is just a 15 minutes walk away and offers a great selection of restaurants, bars and of course ice cream shops! The lake view villa accommodates up to 16 people and offers three double bedrooms, two twin bedrooms and three sofa beds. There are three family bathrooms with shower and two guest bathrooms with toilet. The living areas of each apartment offer plenty of space to relax and each has large windows welcoming in sunlight and breeze, not to mention stunning lake views from every angle! Step outside and each apartment has its own own private terrace - wake up each morning to the sun glistening on the lake below or spend your evening soaking up the spectacular sunsets with glass of chilled prosecco! The living rooms are comfy and each kitchen is fully equipped for whipping up some local dishes and come with all you need including oven and dishwasher. Every apartment has an outside dining table - put them all together and you have a perfect al-fresco dining experience!

The highlight of the garden is the stunning views over Malcesine and Lake Garda - its breathtaking! **Do I need a Car?** We usually recommend having a car when visiting Lake Garda - it opens endless possibilities to explore this wonderful area. However, a car is not absolutely essential here. Malcesine offers all the services you could need including supermarket, shops and plenty of restaurants. If you do have a vehicle, there is parking within the villa grounds. Please note: The villa is perched on the hillside. The walk to Malcesine is down a steep hill and takes around 15 minutes. Please be aware, coming back up may take a little longer. Taxis are easily available in the town centre if you need. **Location** Villa Mansarda is located on the north east coast of Lake Garda, close to Riva del Garda in the north (17km) and Garda (27km) and Peschiera (53km) in the south. Its a great base for exploring Lake Garda, particularly the north. Malcesine also has a well-connected ferry port for easy access to other areas around Lake Garda. Villa Mansarda is just over a 1 hour drive from Verona airport and around 2 hours from Milan Bergamo Airport. **Specific Rate Details** • Check In between 1600 and 2000. • Check Out 1000 • Minimum stays of 7 nights in High Season (flexible on request ) • Flexible arrival / departure days (Saturdays only in July and August) • Bed linen and towels included • Free WIFI • Free Cots & Highchairs • Final Cleaning is charged at € 20 per person and will be added during the booking process.
