Marenca Residence is located on Via Casali Cuserina, in a quiet residential area on the western shore of Lake Maggiore, just outside the historic centre of Cannobio, a Piedmontese village known for its arcaded lakefront and its still-authentic atmosphere compared to other more touristy spots on the lake.
