Villeta Eva is a quaint lakeshore cottage wonderfully positioned right
on the shore of Lake Maggiore near the town of Lesa.
Named after the very friendly owner who speaks excellent English, this
semi-detached house has been very tastefully restored and furnished and
has its own private dock and beach. The nearest village is Solcio
(approximately 500 meters from the house) with an excellent food shop
(open Sunday morning), a church and a 3 star restaurant. Lesa at
1 km offers a variety of services such as a post office, pharmacy, gas
station and café and restaurants.
Check availability
Villeta Eva presents a very private and peaceful setting thanks
to its location far away from the busy lake shore road that encircles
the lake. Located in an exclusive residential area in a
former palace garden, access to the house is via a private road with
entrance gate. The property with its spacious and manicured
garden is on this small lane and there is direct access to
the lake only a few steps from the house.
Constructed in the shape
of an 'L', Villeta Eva has two wings connected by a common
courtyard. One wing is the residence of Eva and the other wing is
our guest accommodation. There is a furnished outdoor area
private for guests outside this section of the house.
Tastefully and carefully
decorated, Villeta Eva offers a romantic holiday on the shore of the
lake. Linens are changed once per week. Includes
lake access and private mooring. On approval of the owner, a well
behaved dog is welcome for a fee of 60 Euros per week. A child six
years or younger may be added as a sixth person.
Several of the rooms in Villeta
Eva have direct access to the garden
which is very convenient.
Main Level:
Arched French doors lead from outside into a very large sitting room
with sofas, billiard table at its center, fireplace and TV. On the
right, there's the dining room and a well-equipped kitchen (dishwasher)
opening towards the garden where there’s also a covered dining area
(gazebo) and a
solarium. On the left, there’s the access to the sleeping area
developing on main level and loft. Down at the lake (near the dock
area) there’s a corner equipped with beach umbrella, table, chairs,
deck chairs.
Sleeping Area Main Level:
Single bedroom (200cm x 100cm bed) with adjacent bathroom (small
shower,
the pink marble bath is just a decor).
Master bedroom suite with 2 single beds (each 195cm x 90cm) that can be
joined, and an en-suite full bathroom (large shower). This bedroom is
accessed both through the foregoing single bedroom and directly from
the outside. The windows of this bedroom are equipped with mosquito
nets.
Sleeping Area Loft:
Second
main bedroom with a double bed (190cm x 190cm - not divisible). This
bedroom overlooks the main-level single bedroom (no doors, just a low
balustrade) and has air conditioning. Adjacent, there’s a smaller,
simply furnished single bedroom, appropriate only for children with a
single bed (190cm x 80cm). Possibility to add a baby bed on request.
Please note: The stairs leading to the loft are narrow making it
necessary to carefully watch your steps as you go down. No bathroom
available at the loft level, therefore it is necessary to use the
bathroom downstairs and the night navigation could be not easy. In
addition, the loft is not suitable for very tall people as the ceiling
is quite low.
Other facilities: kayak, 4 bikes, BBQ, a mooring buoy, window screens
in two of the bedrooms and in the kitchen, laundry service on request
and charged.
Outside:
Well manicured lawn stretches down to the lake. There is a nicely
furnished patio with umbrella facing the lake.

About Lake Maggiore
Lago
Maggiore is a magical glacial lake anchoring the mountains, which step
up into the Italian Alps. This is the heart of the 'Lakes District' of
Italy, an area with a noted northern influence blending beautifully
with all things Italian.
This is an area devoted to being outdoors on land or water, with plenty
of small villages to explore and more than enough stunning scenery to
fill a vacation. There is excellent hiking in the Valle Grande
and elsewhere, and equally excellent golfing with two golf courses
nearby (fifteen minutes by car) and more than seven within forty
minutes' drive.
Tours
in the area include Stresa, the Borromeo Islands, Brissago Islands,
Arona, Villa Taranto with its botanical gardens and the Cannero
Riviera. A ten minute drive gets you to the ferry launches
in Belgirate, and romantic Lake Orta with Isola S.Giulio is only
a fifteen minute drive.
Five
minutes away by car, Stresa lies in a wonderful setting and offers the
Grand hotel des Iles Borromées, beauty, fitness and anti-stress
programs with the most modern equipment. Two
swimming pools are available in Stresa, as well as a tennis
court, steam bath, sauna and hydro massage. The city also offers
a fabulous variety of restaurants, cafés and shops.
Water sports such as sailing ,windsurfing, water skiing are available
in Stresa, Belgirate and Lesa.
Milan's Malpensa airport is 27 miles away.
