Location & what to see

Residence Garden is located on Via Darbedo, in the heart of Cannobio, a village overlooking the Piedmont shore of Lake Maggiore known for its arcaded historic centre and its proximity to the Val Cannobina. The area is residential but just a few steps from the streets of the centre, with bars and restaurants reachable on foot in under two minutes: the restaurant C’Era una Volta is just 20 metres away, while Bar Frico is only 40 metres from the property.

For those travelling by train, the nearest stations are Maccagno and Pino-Tronzano, both around 4.6 km away. Milan Malpensa Airport is about 46 km away, a convenient option for those arriving from abroad. By car, the Swiss border and the towns of the Locarno area are within short reach: Ascona with its golf club is about 16 km away, while Piazza Grande in Locarno is 13.6 km away, reachable in just over 15 minutes.

Lake Maggiore, right in front of the property, is the main draw in summer with swimming and water sports, while during the shoulder seasons walks in Parco Giona, 4.5 km away, and excursions towards the Val Cannobina are well suited. Those staying a few extra days can take a trip to the Borromean Islands, about 37 km to the south, or cross the border to visit the Visconti Castle and the Locarno Falconry, both about 13 km away. In winter the area remains quieter, ideal for those seeking a relaxed stay away from the summer crowds.
