'In Arcadia', writes Johann Wolfgang von Goethe at Lake Garda: 'How much I wish to have my friends for a moment next to me, that they could look forward to the prospect that lies ahead of me.' (Italian Journey. 12.09.1786)
TOWNHOUSE IN GARGNANO
The charming Italian Townhouse with Lake and Mountain View is a landmark. It is located in the midst of GARGNANO and is located next to the lake promenade and the small harbour. 100 square meters on 5 floors offer relaxed holidays with family, children and friends. The house was rebuild in 2002 and completely renovated in 2014. Parts of the house are from the 17th Century. The house is situated a few steps away from the small harbour, the promenade and the beach of GARGNANO. Despite its central location, it is rather idyllic. It is located in a small alley in the middle of the city, but also hears the sounds of daily life ... the garbage disposal, the chatting, and singing of the neighbours, the churches tower clock, the birds. The loveliest of this House is that one has the feeling of being in the middle of Italy.
Smoking only permitted on the balcony or outside. The townhouse is only for non-smokers.
The cities and the hinterland of Gargnano are part of the famous Parco Alto Garda Bresciana. In Gargnano the Lake has sea character. There seems to be no horizon. It has such a dazzling light and the view is breathtaking.
