Description
Casa Lawrence is in an enviable location overlooking the beautiful Lake Garda and the surrounding mountains. Nestled within the lush greenery of the Alto Garda Bresciano Park, with the village of Gargnano just 2km away, it is hard to think of a better place to stay for your holiday in the North of Italy.
The villa is a light, airy family home with plenty of space to gather in the open-plan communal areas. The home retains aspects of its stylish 70s décor while offering all of the modern facilities you could need, such as Wi-Fi and air conditioning in the bedrooms.
On the ground floor of the villa, there is a vast living space with comfortable sofas around a fireplace for the winter months. If you wish to dine indoors, you can also find a long dining table within this room and a pool table for a round of pool after dinner. The large windows and French doors open onto the garden, where you can enjoy incredible lake views.
When you wish to retire for the evening, you can choose between six bedrooms. Two of these rooms can be found on the ground floor, while the remaining four are located on the first floor. One of the bedrooms has two single beds and is best suited to children.
Heading outdoors, you will find yourself in a large, well-maintained garden with lawns, dining terraces and fragrant plants dotted around. The garden is a great spot to enjoy dinner al-fresco or for lazy days by the private pool, all while taking in the fantastic views of Lake Garda.
When you wish to eat out, you can walk or drive the 2km to Gargnano, which is the closest village. This striking village is packed with art, history and cultural attractions and is a great place to have so close. The village has been inhabited for over 1000 years and is one of the most picturesque on the lake. As you wander around, you will see many pretty churches, such as the spectacular San Francesco church built in 1221. The village is also known for the lemons grown here, and if you would like to learn more, then take a guided tour of the picturesque lemon farms. As well as historic sites, there are also shops and eateries in the village; make sure to try the local seafood, lemon dishes and capers! If you are visiting in September, you may be lucky enough to catch some of the Centomiglia International Regatta, which departs from the village and is a world-famous sailing competition.
If you would like an action-packed day out, you are perfectly placed for a day of hiking or cycling through the nearby mountains and parkland. Thrill seekers would also love paragliding and water sports, which are only a few kilometres away. If this all sounds a bit too tiring, then book on to a boat tour such as the half-day tour of the middle lake which departs from Gargnano.
If you fancy a day away from the lake, drive to Verona, which is 80km away. Verona is best known for its Shakespearean attractions, such as Juliet’s balcony and incredible shows at the open-air theatre. /n Security deposit /n €1500 charged to client’s credit card as a pre-authorisation one month before arrival and refunded two weeks after departure, subject to full inspection. /n Arrival time /n 4.00 p.m. - 8.00 p.m. /n Departure time /n By 10.00 a.m. /n Energy costs included? /n Yes. /n Linen & towels included? /n Yes. /n Pets welcome? /n Not allowed. /n Other Ts and Cs /n Weddings, stag/hen parties and any special events are not allowed. /n Other Ts and Cs /n Please note that a cot and highchair are available at an extra cost of €50 per item, payable locally. /n Other Ts and Cs /n Please note that no more than 2 children are allowed in the party. /n Other Ts and Cs /n Please note that air-conditioning is available in the bedrooms only. /n Changeover day /n Flexible. /n End of stay cleaning included? /n No. €600, payable locally.
