Finca Cascina Borchina: "FALCO" country estate, relaxation, dream lake view, nature, organic

Cascina Borchina offers four romantic and elegant accommodations, for only a few guests: an entire house (finca) on two floors, an apartment with one bedroom (sole), two one-room apartments (Violetta and Falco).

The one-room apartment "FALCO" is located in the Cascina Borchina, on the upper floor. The studio is the ideal living solution for couples, friends or single travelers who want to have a wonderful view over the Lago and the mountains and who are looking for a warm, sunny and elegant atmosphere. It is an intimate nest, furnished with stylish comfort and natural materials.

The natural materials have been carefully selected with great attention to detail. Among other things you will find marble, travertine, granite, slate, natural stone, recycled wood, old bricks. The result is a mixture of contemporary glamor, anchored in elements of fascinating tradition. The large windows give you the opportunity to have a wonderful view over the lake and to be embraced by the sun's rays. You have sun from early to late.
The room is equipped with a wardrobe, a kitchen, a bathroom with a stone shower, a living and dining area with a double bed and a wooden table with chairs that invites you to read or enjoy the view. They have a roof terrace with a marble table and chairs with cushions. Cascina Borchina has a lawned garden and a park. For this you have two deckchairs with cushions. Although we are in the middle of a forest, Cascina Borchina is surrounded by ancient rocks and stone walls, which has been used in history to grow fruit plants and wine. Today we have lemon trees, rosemary, sage, lavender, thyme, mint, cactus, wild cherry, chestnut, oak and hazelnut.

Wir fanden unseren Aufenthalt auf der Finca Borchina wunderbar; die FeWo entsprach genau unseren Vorstellungen. Wir fühlten uns dort sehr wohl konnten uns gut erholen. Bettina und Andrea sind ganz hervorragende, freundliche und auch sehr hilfsbereite Gastgeber. Ganz herzlichen Dank!

Einzigartig an dieser Unterkunft war die traumhafte Lage hoch über dem Lago Maggiore. Der Ausblick vom Garten als auch Balkon hätte nicht besser sein können. Die Gastgeberin hat uns mit offenen Armen empfangen und hat sich immer und überall um unser Wohl gekümmert. Wir würden es auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen!!!

Traumlage

Es ist ein steiniger und abenteuerlicher Weg um dort hin zu kommen, aber alle Mühen lohnen sich! Eine Traumlage, sehr zuvorkommende und hilfsbereite Vermieter. Es gab absolut nichts zu bemängeln, außer, dass der Urlaub zu kurz war. Vielen Dank für die schöne Zeit!!

Leider sehr schön.

Eigentlich bin ich versucht lauter schlechte Sachen über dieses Feriendomizil zu verbreiten. Wenn sichs einrichten lässt, kommen wir auf jeden Fall wieder. Das sagt doch Alles, oder? Nur Besitzer tiefer gelegter Sportwagen sollten sich vorab mit den Vermietern abstimmen!
