In Besozzo, nestled in the lush heart of Lombardy and just a short drive from Lake Maggiore and Lake Varese, the bed and breakfast Il Bel Giardinetto invites guests to enjoy an authentic and relaxing environment. This house, dating back to the 1920s and lovingly renovated by Sylviane, combines the charm of the past with modern comfort, ensuring a pleasant stay immersed in tranquility.

The two rooms, both double and featuring private bathrooms, are carefully decorated to provide peace and rest. The larger blue room can accommodate a third bed upon request, while the cozy and bright green room overlooks the surrounding greenery. Upstairs, a sunny terrace encourages reading or a relaxing break, and the garden boasts a swimming pool, perfect for cooling off on warmer days.

Each morning, a generous breakfast featuring organic, locally-sourced products is served: fresh bread, yogurt, jams, cereals, seasonal fruits, natural juices, coffee, tea, and plant-based drinks. Cheese, cold cuts, and options for special dietary needs are also available upon request.

Wi-Fi is accessible throughout the property. Guests can enjoy a refrigerator on the ground floor, parking facilities, a cot and high chair for children, as well as personalized information and recommendations for exploring the area: from the Borromean Islands to the Hermitage of Santa Caterina del Sasso, from Laveno to Stresa, and including the Angera Fortress and the elegant Villa Taranto.

During the warmer months, breakfast is served on the terrace. Arrival times should be arranged in advance, preferably between 4 PM and 8 PM, with departure expected by 10 AM. A 30% deposit is required at the time of booking. In the summer, a minimum stay of three nights is accepted. Credit cards are not accepted, and all rooms are designated as non-smoking.

Sylviane, the decorator and hostess, is eager to share her experience and love for the area, welcoming guests with discretion and warmth, and providing genuine, family-like hospitality.

The Bel Giardinetto is situated in Besozzo, a small town surrounded by the lush greenery of the Varese hills, in a strategic location for exploring the natural and cultural wonders of Lombardy and Piedmont. Just 2 km from the shores of Lake Maggiore and 3 km from Lake Varese, the area offers a perfect blend of tranquility and opportunities for excursions, making it ideal for those seeking relaxation as well as for those wanting to discover the region.

Nearby, visitors can explore captivating sites such as the Hermitage of Santa Caterina del Sasso, perched dramatically above the lake, the Borromean Castle of Angera, and the famous Borromean Islands, which are easily accessible from Laveno, about 7 km from the property. The Piedmontese side of the lake is also easily reachable, with towns like Arona, Stresa, Intra, and Pallanza—home to the beautiful Villa Taranto—offering stunning views, botanical gardens, and significant historical landmarks.

For nature enthusiasts and outdoor activity lovers, the region presents trails for hiking or cycling, scenic routes through forests and hills, protected areas, and nature reserves. Lake Varese is perfect for leisurely walks along the water and birdwatching, while Lake Maggiore offers spectacular sunsets and peaceful beaches.

The area is also rich in excellent restaurants, trattorias, and markets where visitors can taste local specialties in an authentic and less touristy setting. Thanks to its secluded yet well-connected location, Bel Giardinetto serves as an ideal starting point for those wishing to enjoy a stay in touch with nature, while also indulging in the cultural and culinary discoveries of the region.
