Location & what to see

Casa Tartaruga is located in Trarego, a small hillside hamlet above the shores of Lake Maggiore, set in a rural landscape of terraces, woods and stone houses typical of the Piedmont hinterland. The secluded location, away from the traffic of the more touristy lakeside towns, is exactly what guests appreciate most: couples have rated the area 9.9 out of 10 for a romantic stay.

For meals outside the house, Ristorante Luna is just 1.3 km away, while Residence Usignolo, with an adjoining bed & breakfast, is 1.2 km away; slightly further, at around 3.5 km, are the bars in the town centre. Maccagno railway station, on the line running along the lake, is about 5 km away, as is Colmegna station at 6 km. Those arriving by air can use Locarno Airport, about 20 km away, Lugano Agno Airport, 18 km away, or the more distant Malpensa, about 42 km away.

Its proximity to Lake Maggiore makes Trarego a convenient base for exploring Cannobio, the village of Cannero Riviera and the Borromean Islands, about 37 km away, or venturing as far as Locarno and Ascona in Switzerland, both about 31 km away, where golf is played in summer at the Golfclub Patriziale Ascona. In winter, the area is well suited to scenic walks towards Il Colle and the Torre Imperiale, 5 km away, while in summer the lake offers swimming, boat trips and trails through natural parks such as Parco Giona, 4.7 km away.
