Torri del Benaco mountain rentals

Due to late flight into Verona Airport, our arrival at Stefano apartments was quite late & in darkness. Despite this, our wonderful host Barbara met us and took time to show us our apartment & explain everything to us. The apartment was spotlessly clean & very comfortable and on our first morning, the true splendour of Lake Garda was revealed from our balcony. The location of the apartments is excellent albeit the access lane to the front gate can be quite challenging due to the steep & uneven terrane. During our stay, we found the apartment had everything we needed for a wonderful holiday and we have no hesitation in recommending it to our family & friends who may wish to visit this beautiful location.

The apartment is in Albisano, which is high on a hill overlooking Torri del Benaco. It is reached by a twisting road, understandable when you reach the top of the hill and see the lovely view. The apartment is new, and had all we needed. The host was very helpful, sending us photos so as to help find the apartment which was very useful. We ate in a couple of good restaurants very near the apartment which was useful as we didn’t have to drive down the hill, but on the last night ate on the front at Torri del Benaco which was a wonderful setting. If you want a lovely view away from the bustling crowds this is the apartment for you.

Good sized and comfortable apartment with generous garden and magnificent views. There is a lovely terrace to sit and eat out, see the lake and the mountains, and watch the boats and the sunsets. The garden has olives and other trees, with lots of places to sit and lounge - both shady spots and sunny spots. Inside there is a very spacious sitting room with comfy chairs. There are maps and information about walks, and also books and magazines. The kitchen is fairly small but very well equipped, lots of pots and utensils, and everything works well. The owners are very welcoming, generous and helpful. Torri del Benaco is a short walk away down an interesting (and steep) high-walled road. See if you can find all the ammonite fossils in the stones along the way! Torri is a nice little town, with lots of restaurants, cafes and boutiques, a couple of decent small supermarkets. There are bigger supermarkets at Garda and Bardolino. There is a good bus service, and there are ferries but we didn’t use those. There are lots of directions to go walking from the house. The walk to Crero is delightful, and the new Tibetan bridge across a spectacular gorge beyond Crero is a must. It is mountainbiking heaven - we reckon it is better than the more famous Riva end of the lake. There are lots of really good rides at all levels of difficulty. There is a bike hire (including e-bikes) shop in Torri.

A very recently comfortable, modernised quiet apartment fitted to a very high standard. Clean and very well equipped with excellent kitchen and WiFi. Ten minute walk from the centre of Torri Del Benaco. The host was very helpful and easy to contact. The view of Lake Garda could not have been better.
