Olzano townhouses

The house was beautiful with individual touches and wonderful views. Situated in a picturesque village with a little cafe, bakery and restaurant. A wonderful base for exploring Lake Garda. Host was very friendly and responsive. Would definitely recommend and stay again. Fantastic!

The house was spacious and nicely decorated, and the location great, with a fine view of the lake from the terrace, with a separate small terrace for the main bedroom with the same view. It took about 40 minutes for us to reach the lake shore at Limone: we enjoyed the lovely village atmosphere of Pieve where the house is situated. Doris was lovely to communicate with.

Just returned from staying in Italy for two weeks and for the last week we stayed at Loris' lovely house in Cassone. It was easy to find the way to the parking area by using Google maps and Loris also provided directions and maps to help us get there. Loris doesn't speak English but that wasn't an issue as we managed extremely well by using translate apps. Loris provided a garage (and bicycles for those that wish to see the lake area in a more physical way) and met us on our arrival. The garage is just a short 3 minute walk downhill to the house. He also kindly helped us with our luggage and made sure that we were settled in well. The bottle of wine that he gave us was also greatly appreciated ;) The house is on the hill but that is no different from any accommodation in Cassone. Be aware the streets are cobbled so as another reviewer stated, no high heels. It is only a two minute walk from the lake and a minute and a half from the restaurants. The Stella and Avril were our favourites by far. There you will also see the shortest river in Italy! The house is in an extremely quiet area, finished to a high standard and had every thing we needed including a washing machine, hair dryer etc. The windows all had fly screens too! Cassone was in an excellent location for us and was only a few minutes away from Malcesine. There was a bus stop just a couple of minutes away so if you didnt wish to use a car you could easily use public transport to anywhere around the lake. Loris and his wife Adele are lovely people and were so kind and generous. The house was lovely and beautifully clean. I wouldn't hesitate to stay there again and recommend the house and them as a lovely experience. Thank you both!

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.
