Excellent place to stay in Orta San Giulio
We absolutely loved this beautiful home directly on Lago d'Orta. Francesca was a very helpful, communicative host. Everything was very clean and the home was very well maintained. Very good size for a family or for entertaining guests. Highly recommend for a visit to Orta San Giulio.

Relaxing by Lake Orta
Francesca’s house on Lake Orta, just a short walk from the charming little village of Orta San Giulio, was a perfect stay. The house is right on the lake, wonderfully clean and spacious. We couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful place to enjoy the lake and it’s surrounds.

Beautiful views and great location.
The house is pretty and in a great situation, close to the town with direct access to the lake. We loved swimming from the steps on the terrace before an evening drink in the sunshine. Bedrooms overlooking the lake are lovely.

Lovely house
Beautiful spacious lakeside house with access to the lake from the back garden - perfect for our group of friends out in Italy for a wedding in the town. The piazza with its many restaurants and gelato shops is a five minute walk away which makes this a pretty perfect location to just be able to dump the car and wander around the town. Lots of useful things provided (coffee pots, towels, sun beds etc.) but sadly the fishing rod proved unsuccessful at catching lunch. Parking is in the town car park (10 min walk) at €5/day at the time of writing - vehicle access to the house to drop bags though. Only downside was that the cleaning fee wasn’t mentioned in our original booking, but I think Francesca has rectified this now so it will show up at the time of booking.

a very special and beautiful place
Francesca’s Lago d’Orta home was the absolute perfect place for our two families to land after our overseas travel. The house and setting is a fairytale, everything was perfect. The house is beautifully and meticulously kept, the location perfect for quick strolls into the piazza, letting our kids roam free and the lake access so much fun. All of us, grown ups too, had the best time jumping into the lake! We had an incredible stay and will always have fond memories. ❤️

A magical location on the lake
We very much enjoyed our stay in Francesca’s lovely old house on the lake at Orta San Giulio. The weather was cold and rainy, but we were warm and snug, especially when we lit the open fire. The kitchen is amazingly equipped and the house very comfortable. Francesca went out of her way to be helpful to us in getting to the property and obtaining our provisions. And the view of the island monastery , illuminated at night, is truly magical.

Wonderful
This place was perfect for us - our three daughters each had their own rooms and the direct access to the lake was exactly what we were looking for. The house was very clean and comfortable, had everything you need and enjoys fabulous views. Francesca was lovely - really helpful. Thanks so much.
