Notes
- The equipment is very solid: comfortable beds with plush mattresses, luxurious bath items, premium cookware. Cleanliness is a top priority, luxury is however deliberately omitted to support the withdrawal of an overstimulated life. On colder days you can keep kitchen and bedroom comfortably warm by the central fireplace. If necessary, a variety of cultural and other offers in the region are provided for variety. Due to the slope and stairs, the house is not suitable for disabled people.

VRBO Advertisement and some information didn't match the actual outcome of this rental
The cottage was quaint and clean, and views of Lake Maggiore were beautiful, however, the directions to the cottage could have been much more detailed. There were no instructions and information about the keys and our rooms. Thank goodness someone was staying in the other apartment and she was kind enough to help us out. In the VRBO advertisement on the Internet it listed towels and linens were included. Later the owner sent an email asking if we would need towels and sheets. I responded yes (I didn't pack towels and sheets for my European vacation) and I was charged €50+ for one set of the skimpiest towels and one fitted sheet. I informed the owner that it clearly states towels and linens provided, but she went ahead and deducted the amount from my deposit anyway.
It is important that guests read all information, and they should be informed before arriving, particularly if specifications had been given individually again and unambiguously, such as payment of tourist tax and sheets which must be paid in cash (apart from some basics such as dish towel and cloth) which was the case for this guest. It is quite stressful if people start complaining afterwards without reckognising that the trouble was not the host's fault.
Wunderschöne Ferienwohnung mit toller Aussicht
Das Rustico ist oberhalb von Minusio gelegen. Die Anfahrt geht über ein paar Serpentinen, ist bei dieser Lage aber zu erwarten :-).
Sehr netter Kontakt zur Vermieterin, wir haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen.
Wir freuen uns auch über nette Gäste!
Super Aussicht in charmantem Haus
Wir haben die 10 Tage genossen und kommen gerne wieder!
Willkommen jederzeit!
Wunderbarer Ort für einen Urlaub zwischen See und Bergen!
Wir haben uns zu viert in dieser Unterkunft sehr wohl gefühlt und besonders genossen, dass wir vom Haus aus viele Ausflüge direkt zu Fuß oder mit dem Bus starten konnten. nach langen und anstrengenden Bergtouren war es besonders schön, abends nochmal kurz im Lago schwimmen zu gehen.
Im Haus selbst ist alles sehr schön, geschmackvoll und praktisch eingerichtet.
Das doch recht nahe Zusammensein mit den Nachbarn hat auch wunderbar geklappt und wir haben manche guten Ausflugstipps von ihnen bekommen.
Wir freuen uns auch über nette und zufriedene Gäste.
Sehr schöne Ferien
Was sollen wir schreiben, es hat alles gepasst, sehr gerne wieder.
Über zufriedene Gäste freuen wir uns sehr, über Gäste, die sogar von sich aus fragen, ob sie die Blumen gießen sollen, freuen wir uns noch viel mehr - danke und sehr gerne auch wieder.
Sehr schön und erholsam...
Sehr schönes uraltes Haus in traumhafter Lage. Lediglich die Anfahrt war etwas mühsam, man wird dafür aber mit einem herrlichen Blick auf den Lago Maggiore entschädigt.
