Description

Spend your time meandering along the charming promenade or have an adventure and explore the many walks and other activities in the surrounding mountains.

The space and modern facilities offered at Castello make it a perfect place for couples and families alike. It has a large lounge and dining area leading out onto a terrace for al fresco dining. In a tranquil and peaceful setting you can marvel at the sights and sounds of this magnificent lake.

Getting around

You can travel on the Centrovalli mountain railway into Switzerland to Locarno, taking in breathtaking alpine views, and return to Stresa by ferry boat visiting any number of the towns that line the shore along the way. There are numerous walks to suit everybody on Mottarone or the nature walks that contour the lake in between nearby villages. For the more adventurous you can book to stay overnight in a refuge in the nearby Val Grande – one of the wildest national parks in Italy. The Italian ski slopes can be reached in around 45 minutes and the famous Swiss resorts of Zermatt and Saas Fee in a couple of hours by car. There are also numerous popular golf courses in the area.

Interaction with guest

Property Guestbook extracts: We had a wonderful time in Castello - it was a great location (no need for a car), great view and full of those "little" touches which make it truly a home away from home, so thank you... Just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed our time in Stresa. Your apartment was so lovely and spacious, we really enjoyed breakfasting on the balcony... The apartment is ideally located being very close to the centre but far enough away so you can only hear the church bells... We did appreciate how well equipped and furnished it was, though the wonderful weather meant that the balcony, with its stunning view across the lake, turned out to be the ‘room’ we used the most. We really liked Stresa....
