Il Nido sul Lago is an independent holiday home located in Stresa, on the shores of Lake Maggiore, designed for those seeking a self-contained space with a garden, terrace and views of the mountains and lake. The property is aimed mainly at couples and small groups who want to move around freely, cook for themselves and enjoy the Piedmont scenery without giving up basic comforts.
The two available units each offer around 35 square metres, with a separate bedroom, private bathroom with shower and bidet, and a fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher, oven, hob, microwave, coffee machine and electric kettle. There is also a flat-screen TV, while soundproofed walls ensure greater peace and quiet during the stay.

Il Nido sul Lago offers two types of holiday home, both around 35 square metres and designed for a maximum of two main guests. Each unit has an independent entrance, a separate bedroom with a French double bed and a private bathroom with shower and bidet. The kitchen, complete with hob, oven, dishwasher, fridge, microwave, coffee machine and electric kettle, allows guests to prepare meals completely independently throughout their stay.
Both accommodations share a terrace with lake views, soundproofed walls and a flat-screen TV, but differ in their internal layout: the first unit includes a separate living room with an additional sofa bed, useful for hosting a third person, while the second offers two distinct living areas while still having a single bedroom. The choice between the two therefore depends on space requirements and the number of guests expected for the stay.
In addition to the separate bedroom, this unit includes a self-contained living room with a sofa bed, ideal for hosting a third person or simply having a living area distinct from the sleeping area. The terrace overlooks the lake and surrounding garden, while the fully equipped kitchen allows guests to manage meals with complete freedom.
