Schönes traditionelles Tessiner Steinhaus mit fantastischer Aussicht auf den Luganer See von allen Etagen aus. Wir haben nichts vermisst, alles war sauber und das haus in einen guten bis sehr gutem Zustand. Einiges wurde neu renoviert und anderes war teil des alten Hauses , es war eine schöne Kombination . In unmittelbarer Nähe gab es zwei Restaurants , auf dem Monte Bre , nochmal zwei ( öffnungszeiten variieren nach Saison). Jede halbe Stunde fährt ein Bus direkt bis ins Zentrum von Lugano. Im Dorf sind genug Parkplätze vorhanden. Es gibt viele Wege für zum wandern oder spazieren gehen. Durch die kleinen Gassen zu laufen hat uns jedes mal viel Freude bereitet , man trifft auch immer wieder ein paar Kätzchen.
