| Theme |
Relaxation, art & culture, nature & folklore - In
this lovely medieval town you can escape the hustle and bustle of coastal
resorts and soak up the character, history and landscape of this beautiful
part of Italy. The apartment is new, therefore enabling you to live as
conveniently and easily as possible. The lake is nearby (10-15 min drive) and has sandy
beaches which are rarely crowded. The area is designated an area of
outstanding natural beauty so development around the lake is severely
restricted. Within a 2 hour drive you can visit a large part of the
world's artistic heritage.
