Villa Mansarda, Loft Apartment, Lake Views
Apartment with 1 bedroom, 2 bathrooms and shared pool in Malcesine, Italy
From £1,855 per week
Our luxury 1 bedroom apartment is in a wonderful villa overlooking Malcesine. With breathtaking views over Lake Garda, the villa is surrounded by a private garden with olive trees and swimming pool.
Overview
Escape to a wonderful oasis at Villa Mansarda, a beautiful, privately owned villa nestled in the hills above the pretty town of Malcesine. Made up of 3 independent apartments, the villa is a classic Italian family home and offers spectacular lake views! Offering the best of both worlds, the villa is peacefully perched on the hill top, offering tranquility and a perfect place to sit back and relax and watch the lights glisten on the lake. If you fancy something a little more lively, the town is just a 15 minutes walk away and offers a great selection of restaurants, bars and of course ice cream shops!
The loft apartment accommodates up to 4 people and offers one double bedroom and two, single sofa beds in the living area. There is one family bathroom with shower and jacuzzi bath tub and a second, guest bathroom with toilet.
The living area is open plan, offering plenty of space to relax and the large windows offer stunning lake views from every angle! Step outside and take full advantage of your own private terrace - wake up each morning to the sun glistening on the lake below or spend your evening soaking up the spectacular sunsets with glass of chilled prosecco!
The living room is comfortable and has two sofas, great for lazy days. The kitchen is fully equipped for whipping up some local pasta dishes and comes with all you need including oven and dishwasher. There's a dining table both in and out so you can choose - will it be inside or do you fancy al-fresco dining on the terrace?
The apartment has air conditioning and there's also free WIFI, if you need.
The villa gardens take full advantage of the beautiful scenery; with flowers spread on the terraces, the gardens are dotted with olive trees and sun loungers surround the wonderful pool, offering the perfect spot to swim and bathe. The gardens and pool are shared with the other two apartments in the villa but don't let that stop you taking your freshly brewed coffee down to the garden and watch the sun rise!
LOCATION
We usually recommend having a car when visiting Lake Garda - it opens endless possibilities to explore this wonderful area. However, a car is not absolutely essential here. Malcesine offers all the services you could need including supermarket, shops and plenty of restaurants. If you do have a vehicle, there is parking within the villa grounds.
Please note: The villa is perched on the hillside. The walk to Malcesine is down a steep hill and takes around 15 minutes. Please be aware, coming back up may take a little longer. Taxis are easily available in the town centre if you need.
Villa Mansarda is located on the north east coast of Lake Garda, close to Riva del Garda in the north (17km) and Garda (27km) and Peschiera (53km) in the south. It's a great base for exploring Lake Garda, particularly the north. Malcesine also has a well-connected ferry port for easy access to other areas around Lake Garda.
Villa Mansarda is just over a 1 hour drive from Verona airport and around 2 hours from Milan Bergamo Airport.

My wife and I think that the loft apartment is probably the most beautifully located and well-appointed holiday accommodation we have ever rented. With its own entrance directly from the hill on which the house is built, and with its own terraces front and rear, you are physically separated from the other two flats on the property and able to catch the sun in privacy all day round. The view from the front terrace is simply stupendous, particularly as the sun sets in front of you above the mountains on the other side of Lake Garda. The apartment itself was made to a very high standard four years ago, with wood and marble floors throughout, air conditioning, an extremely spacious and well equipped bathroom (including a Jacuzzi), and a small but perfectly adequate kitchenette. One potential drawback is that the building contains two other apartments below you - and whilst the beautifully maintained pool is set well away from the house, you might find it intrusive if you were unlucky enough if the two flats below contain noisy groups who stay in all day, given that their balconies are only a few feet below yours, and project further outwards. In this eventuality, the rear balcony (which also projects round the side of the house to catch the afternoon sun) would afford at least some protection. If the occupants of all three apartments wanted to use the pool at once, there would be insufficient loungers - in practice, we tended to take turns. The delightful Michela who owns the building, is extremely helpful and ready to assist should you need it. Overall, the place was just fantastic. A car is strongly advised, however – it is a steep 30 minute climb up the hill from the town and nearest shop, although you can always use taxis.

I just wanted to take some time to say thank you for all your help with our stay in Garda for our wedding, we all had the best time. So many of guests were completely in awe of the landscape and scenery at the Villa it was truly the most stunning location. The Villa was wonderful and so was Michela, so accommodating and helpful. I know we changed the booking lots and bothered you even more but just wanted to say a massive thank you. We will definitely be returning and re booking with you :)
Malcesine offers some of the most beautiful scenery in Europe and there is no better place to take in its grandeur than from the balcony of Michela's apartment with its sweeping views of Lake Garda, the imposing Garda Mountains and the village below with its terraced roof tops and imposing castle. Michela is a wonderful host - friendly, helpful and knowledgeable about the region. She is an absolute delight and we feel privileged to have meet her. The apartment is comfortable and tastefully decorated with all modern conveniences. There are scenic walks up into the mountain behind the apartment and there is an easy walk down the steep slope into the village with its cobble stone streets and lake side restaurants. But, and this had been mentioned by others, the apartment is best enjoyed with a car, which we didn't have, but others staying in the complex did. The climb back up the steep slope is not for the physically challenged but,as Michela said to us, by the end of the stay 'you'll be flying up the hill'. And so it was. We got fitter for the experience of not having a car, so the choice is up to each person/couple. The sunsets, the walks in the mountain and along the Lake, coffee in the village, lunch in a lakeside piazza restaurant and the comfort of the apartment made this a memorable part of our trip to Europe. Thanks Michela.
