Villa Giardino is a unique style property which located down a private road with just two other houses. It is set in 3000sqm of rustic, tiered gardens, surrounded by olive trees, fruit trees, jasmine and oleander. It is bordered on one side by woodland, with mountain views on the other side, the front of villa faces out toward the lake. The mountain and lake views from the terrace are absolutely amazing, you won’t be able to put your camera down.The location is quite, peaceful and perfect location for those seeking to ‘get away from it all’. The upstairs and downstairs are not connected internally so it is almost like having two separate accommodations, perfect for those holidaying with the extended family or friends. Every window in the property provides a stunning view of either woodland, gardens, mountains or the lake. The 'piece de resistance' being the stunning view of the lake from the kitchen window.

About Roy Hutton
I have been visiting Lake Garda since 1998 and have grown to love the region so much that when I come here it is like coming home. I purchased an apartment,Il Palazzo-Il Giardino in 2008, where i spent 5 summers from 2010 to 2015 and sold it this year, I purchased Villa Giardino in 2014 and spent many months restoring it with a view to spending more time in Italy, Our circumstances changed and we've had to return to England so our home is now available for holiday rental. Needless to say I am very familiar with the region and I would like to share my knowledge with you. If you book our apartment I will ensure that you get the best out of your Lake Garda holiday. During the time I've spent in Lake Garda I've built my own tourist info website Love Lake Garda. If you'd rather avoid this sites new guest booking fee, you can of course book free-free on my own Love Lake Garda website - I'm happy to receive your booking by either means.
Roy Hutton purchased this Villa in 2014
Why Roy Hutton chose Roé
I fell in love with this property as soon as I saw it. Situated down a tiny track with only two other houses, it is enclosed in 3000sqm of it own gardens and woodland. Besides the 18 olive trees, of which one is particularly beautiful, there are fig trees, a walnut tree, various other fruit trees, Jasmine and Oleander. From the terrace there are 180 degree views which take in Monte Pizzocolo, Monte San Bartolomeo, Monte Baldo, the Gulf of Salo and across the lake to Garda and Bardolino.
What makes this Villa unique
If you want a relaxing holiday away from the crowds then ours is the property for you. Look at the photo's that show the views from the window's and you will understand why. The kitchen window frames the Gulf of Salo picture perfect. The setting and the house are very rustic but the property is fitted with a brand new shower room and kitchen and has been restored to give a modern Italian meets lake house affect. If you want to join in with the hustle and bustle, Salo is only ten minutes away.

Excellent property
We had fantastic time staying in this property. It is good for extended family stay because downstairs in completely independent. There are quite a few instructions for the house, but they are clear and easy to follow. The house was very clean and had everything we needed. Garden was private with lots of trees where you can choose shade or sun position. The views are truly amazing and we enjoyed them all the time. We travelled all around the place by car and enjoyed very much swimming in Riva del Garda, which is about 15 minutes away from the property. Amazing place!!!
Dear Mykola, thank you for your wonderful review, it was a pleasure having you and your family staying in our house. Just one thing, the local town is Salò, Riva is about an hour away. We hope you come back one day. Best wishes.

Great Stay!
We had some great days with the complete family (5 people including grandma) ) at Villa Giardino. The property is fully equipped and nicely located above Salo. The view is stunning! It was enough space for everybody. The extra appartment (downstairs) gave some extra flexibility. Wifi worked well so we could keep in touch with the owners in England for tips and advice about the area, of which they have fantastic knowledge. They even have their own tourist info website and many great contacts around the lake.
5 stars isn´t enough for this one!
Thanks you Jens for your very generous review of our home, we are so pleased that you and your family enjoyed Villa Giardino. It was a pleasure to speak to you and make some suggestions to help you have a wonderful holiday, We hope to see you back some time. Best wishes Roy and Mari-lyn.
Schöner Ort, super schönes Haus
Waren vor paar Tagen für 10 Tage da, sehr schöne Lage , etwas weiter weg von Trubel in der Stadt . Schönes Haus mit allem was man braucht. Super Aussicht auf den gardasee . Gerne wieder.
Ein tolles Haus mit einem wunderschönen Blick auf den See und die Bucht von Saló.
Meine Familie und ich verbrachten eine sehr entspannte Zeit in der Villa Giardino.
Wir haben uns in dem tollen Haus sehr wohl gefühlt, die Ausstattung ist perfekt, von
Küchenutensilien bis zum Gartengrill sowie tollen Gartenliegen, Alles vom Feinsten.
Sehr gute Betten.
Auf dem Balkon und vor dem Haus hatte man eine grandiose Sicht auf den See und die Berge. Wenn es
dunkel wurde, konnte man die vielen Lichter rund um den See erblicken. Traumhaft!
Sehr nette Vermieter, unkomplizierte Abwicklung.
Wir kommen gerne wieder. A presto
Claudia und Familie
Vielen Dank für deine freundlichen Worte Claudia, wir freuen uns auf deine Rückkehr.
Thank you so much for your kind words Claudia, we hope to see you back soon. Alla prossima.
Sehr schön gelegenes Objekt oberhalb vom Gardasee
Villa in ruhiger Lage mit allen Annehmlichkeiten. Genug Platz im und um das Haus auch für z.B. Anhänger und Motorräder. Terrasse mit Blick auf den See, gute Möglichkeiten am Abend die Aussicht zu genießen.
Einfach wunderbar
Wir hatten eine herrliche Woche in diesem wunderbaren, perfekt und mit viel liebe ausgestattetem Haus mit traumhaften Blick auf den Gardasee. Immer wieder gern.
