About this apartment rental

This is a charming two-bedroom apartment that can accommodate up to 4 people. Ideal for a couple and 2 children. Located on the first floor, with direct access to the apartment’s private courtyard area, which features a gazebo, a table, and garden chairs. The master bedroom has a double bed, a spacious closet, and a small balcony. The second bedroom has two single beds. The bathroom features a shower and a bathtub. There is a fully equipped kitchen with a dishwasher and a cozy living area.

Casa Frey is a charming stone house that has been renovated while preserving the charm of the region’s traditional architecture. Guests can enjoy the garden, which features a swimming pool measuring approximately 4x8 meters and 1.30 meters deep. The exterior of the house has been left intact, while the interior has been converted into 4 apartments.
Frey 1, on the first floor on the left, is a three-room apartment. Frey 2, a two-story unit, is on the first floor with a basement on the right. Frey 3, on the first floor, is a two-room apartment. The apartments can be rented individually, in pairs, or even as a set of three. There is a fourth apartment in the house that is rented year-round but does not have access to the pool. The house is located in the small village of Vacciago, surrounded by greenery but not isolated from other homes. The ideal choice for those seeking a relaxing vacation. Just a few kilometers from the lake and from Orta San Giulio. Vacciago is characterized by 18th-century buildings and retains the atmosphere of days gone by. Casa Frey is a cozy and comfortable home equipped with heating for the colder months. Each apartment has satellite TV. Free Wi-Fi (very slow).

Information about Lake Orta: Lake Orta, whose ancient name was "Cusius," is a green oasis with alpine features, enriched by wonderful gardens and green meadows in a Mediterranean climate. Lake Orta is truly a "human-scale" lake, for, as a local writer once said, it can "be taken in at a glance." From both shores, the Cusio region offers visitors the gift of a grand and gentle beauty that invites contemplation and the desire to freeze time in a place one would never want to leave. But Lake Orta, thanks to its tourist-friendly nature, also offers all kinds of entertainment, and sports enthusiasts can enjoy a variety of activities: water sports (sailing, surfing, canoeing, water skiing, etc.), horseback riding, golf, and tennis.

Dining Out: Italian cuisine is famous worldwide, and Lake Orta is no exception. There is a wide range of pizzerias, trattorias, and restaurants to suit every taste and budget.

Milan, the nearest major city, is 80 km away; Lake Maggiore is 20 km away; and Malpensa Airport is 45 km away.

Hiking: There are many interesting hiking opportunities in the area. We provide a guide featuring walks, hikes, and day trips. About 100 meters from the house, the parish church of St. Anthony offers, from its grassy terrace, a beautiful view of Lake Orta with its enchanting island and the 13th-century Buccione Tower.

A lovely home with enough room for 4 people. Cool house and a very nice garden with pool and a shaded place to eat outside. The area has enough to offer, yet is still quiet if you prefer a more relaxed holiday. I would recommend this to a lot of my friends and family.

A delightful little haven in easy driving distance of the Italian lakes with a swimming pool. Sheer bliss! We have to say that Ilaria is the hostess with the mostess. Help was a telephone call away and when our hire car got a small bump (which could have cost us a huge fortune back at the airport) she made contact with a garage in Bolzano and sorted everything for us. Thank you so much. The only thing I would warn UK visitors about is the propensity of speed camera in northern Italy, be warned when you see one they will be a second within a couple of 100m. Absolute musts are the Borromeo Islands (ferry from Arona where there is a free all-day carpark), a day trip into Milan (direct train from Arona) & the Borgomanero street market. But will you want to? Private garden, great patio and a swimming pool, I wouldn't blame you if you didn't want to move an inch!

We stayed one week at this wonderful house. The pool is clean. Nice surroundings and with a short walk for fresh bread in the morning. We recommend a Nice metal at the Hotel Britian - what a view over Lake Orta! Be aware of the mosqitoes...
