Location
The apartment is in the village of Morcote, on the southern tip of the Swiss side of Lake Lugano. The surrounding countryside is crossed with hiking paths ideal for enjoying this stunning landscape.

Morcote is known as one of the most beautiful villages in Switzerland with its elegant buildings, some of which date back to the 15th century. Not to be missed is the church of Santa Maria del Sasso, which is stunning and set in a breathtaking position. A stroll around Scherrer Park is a walk in paradise. You will find a plethora of plant species from bamboo to magnolias all landscaped together beautifully with statues, sculptures and more.

The village of Vico Morcote (11 minutes) is equally stunning, set on the hillside above the lake and surrounded by vineyards. Vico Morcote is packed full of beautiful Mediterranean architecture and has a different feel to it from Morcote. Being higher on the hill, Vico Morcote has some of the best views around and as you explore you will stumble upon Swiss heritage sites, parks and other treasures. The Tenuta Castello di Morcote winery (13 minutes) offers wine tastings and excellent food. You can also buy the wine directly from the producers, to enjoy at home.

Lugano is only a 25-minute drive from the apartment. The city hosts many festivals throughout the year, including the “Luganomusica” festival every summer. For self-catering, the Lugano farmers’ market (Tuesdays and Fridays) in Via Carducci is the place to go to pick up the best ingredients.

The closest international airports are in Italy - Milan Malpensa 1 hour 5 minutes by car, or Milan Linate, a 1 hour and 16-minute journey. Please note that the pool is open from the 1st of May 2025 to the 30th of September 2025

As a guest of this apartment, you'll find a garden and laundry facilities. The front desk is open around the clock.
