Italy's Lake District – comprised notably of Lake Garda, Lake Como, and Lake Maggiore – is one of the country's most desirable upscale resort locations. Here you will find pretty lakeside towns, wonderful scenery, excellent hiking trails, brilliant water sport facilities, and endless things to see and do in the most magical of settings. However, if you're interested in all of these traits and getting a little bit off the beaten tourist path, then we recommend actually foregoing these better-known destinations in favour of the lesser-known but no less lovely Lake Orta. A favourite getaway of the wealthy and cosmopolitan set of Milan, locals have largely kept this absolute gem to themselves but it can (and should) be readily visited if you have found a vacation rental in Lombardy and you happen to be looking to experience the delights of the Italian lakes without busloads of other tourists to contend with.

Isola San Giulio is a beautiful little island located on Lake Orta in the Northern Italian region of Piedmont. Perfectly picturesque, it is a wonderful sight that must be seen with your own eyes to be believed and paints an image similar to the famous island of Bled in Slovenia. If you have found a vacation rental in Piedmont, it is a must-see.
Lake Maggiore, or Lago Verbàno, is a large lake located on the south side of the Alps and is both the second largest lake in Italy and the largest in southern Switzerland. Divided between the Italian regions of Piedmont and Lombardy and the Swiss canton of Ticino, it is a popular holiday area and a beyond scenic destination that is bound to take your breath away. It is often considered the most beautiful lake in Italy and is known locally as “Verbena” for the flowers that grow abundantly at its shores. The towns that skirt the lake, meanwhile, are no less lovely and are picturesque places full of wonderful food, charming buildings, boutiques and a cosmopolitan atmosphere. If you are looking for a holiday that combines an Alpine getaway with lakeside pursuits, that would be wonderful no matter what time of the year you choose to visit and that offers stunning surroundings, look no further. Just find a luxury villa in Lombardy or a luxury villa in Piedmont and begin exploring the incredible Lake Maggiore.
If you have been considering a villa in Piedmont or a vacation rental in Lombardy, it is not unlikely that you might decide to spend a day during your holiday in Italy exploring Lake Maggiore. This incredibly scenic part of the country and part of Italy’s famous and beloved lake district is bordered by impossibly picturesque little towns, circled by excellent hiking routes, full of little islands and islets with gorgeous historic villas, architectural gems, and gardens, and is a perfect place to come and either enjoy various outdoor pursuits or to simply relax and unwind. While there are plenty of things to see and do in the area, one of the most remarkably lovely and magical activities that we can recommend is a visit to the Giardino Botanico Alpinia.
The Giardino Botanico Alpinia is an extraordinary and unique botanic garden housing mostly Alpine plant species that is located at 800m altitude above the picturesque lakeside town of Stresa that is right on Lake Maggiore. Reached by the Lido di Carciano - Alpino - Mottarone cable car, this very special garden not only houses a fascinating collection in an especially scenic location but is also accessed in such a whimsical and charming way. Overall, a visit to this wonderful garden while on vacation at Lake Maggiore is a definite must and would also be certainly a wonderful addition to any day trip in the area if you have found a holiday rental in Piedmont and are spending time seeing what the area has to offer.
Those who love the great outdoors, outdoor pursuits, and pretty scenery will find that if they secure a vacation rental in Piedmont they will quickly discover that it makes for an excellent holiday destination. Home to a famously gorgeous and UNESCO-awarded landscape blanketed by rolling green hills covered in vineyards, snow-capped peaks, glassy lakes, pretty little towns and elegant cities, Piedmont boasts rather breathtaking vistas.
