ACCOMODATION

 
Lake Maggiore, repository of the wealth and cultural patrimony left by the Borromeo family, is still testimony to their prestige and refinement which can be seen in their magnificent island palazzi with their impressive Italian gardens, and the imposing Fortress of Angera.
The lake should be seen from the lake, and from the lake time seems to have stood still. The Monastery of Santa Caterina clinging to the rocky cliff; Stresa and the Borromeo Islands, small in size but rich in history, and the Castles of Cannero, island outpost of the Mazzarditi Brothers, infamous pirates of the Verbano, are just a few of  the timeless examples awaiting the visitor.

Accomodation for the millions of tourists who visit this unforgettable "Land of the Lakes" each year is available for every budget and every requirement. If you are a tour operator and would like to advertise your agency you can insert your logo, photos, special offers and prices in the 'accomodation' category.
