Casa Farfalla

Casa Farfalla is a holiday home in Cannobio, Piedmont, overlooking Lake Maggiore and featuring a terrace with views of the mountains and the water.

The property, of about 90 square metres, is designed for families or small groups of up to six people and is arranged over two bedrooms, a living room with a sofa bed, and a bathroom with both a tub and a shower. The kitchen is fully equipped with a hob, oven, refrigerator and utensils, while the balcony and terrace let guests enjoy evenings by the lake with a cup of coffee prepared with the coffee machine provided.

The area of Cannobio where the house is located is among the most sought-after in the town, just steps from bars and restaurants such as Marenca Cafè and Plaza Cafè, and a short distance from the lakefront promenade and the beach. It is a convenient base for exploring the lower Lake Maggiore area, with excursions in the surroundings, boat trips to Ascona and Locarno, and visits to the area’s historic villages, all while staying in a private and independent setting.

The first bedroom features an extra-large double bed, the second has two single beds with an attached private bathroom, while the living room can host one additional guest thanks to the sofa bed, making the house suitable for large families or groups of friends who want to share the same space without giving up privacy.

Location & what to see

Casa Farfalla is located in the heart of Cannobio, one of the most characteristic villages on the Piedmont shore of Lake Maggiore, in one of the most central and sought-after areas of the town, just steps from the lakefront promenade and the historic centre with its colourful houses and arcades overlooking the water.

The location is convenient both for those getting around on foot and for those who prefer a car: Marenca Cafè is just 5 metres away, Plaza Cafè is 50 metres away, and Lido Beach Lounge is about 100 metres away, all ideal for breakfast or an aperitif by the lake. Maccagno railway station is about 3.9 km away, while Locarno Airport can be reached in about 16 km. The Borromean Islands are 37 km away and Piazza Grande in Locarno is about 13 km away, both classic destinations for a day trip on the lake.

Nature lovers can reach the Torre Imperiale, 4.7 km away, and Parco Giona, 3.9 km away, in just a few minutes — starting points for walks and excursions inland in Piedmont. In summer the lake is suited to windsurfing, canoeing and fishing, while in cooler seasons the trails of Val Cannobina offer routes through woods and small stone villages. Ascona and Locarno, on the Swiss side, are easily reached by car or by boat for a day of shopping, museums and lakeside life.
