Completely renovated in 2012, Palazzo Giolli is a splendid 17th century mansion. The most amazing part is that the villa features gorgeous 17th century original architectural elements, such as wood flooring, large fireplaces and coffered ceilings and combines this with luxury materials and modern technology. All the architectural details have been maintained, restored and enhanced. Palazzo Giolli has a little romantic garden, protected by walls to ensure maximum privacy for dinners outdoor. All services and amenities are very close. In Palazzo Gillis close proximity are golf courses, horseback riding facilities, cycle paths and water sports.
The villa is situated in Vacciago, which lies just above the picturesque town of Orta San Giulio and overlooks the lake and San Giulio island. This is an untouched baroque village full of 16th and 17th century buildings, holiday destination for noble families from Milan and Piedmont. Orta San Giulio is a maze of fascinating little streets filled with restaurants, wine bars, art galleries, gourmet and local craft shops. You can enjoy magnificent sunsets from there, especially from the main square overlooking San Giulio island where you can go to by boat until late in the evening. On a 15 minutes drive you reach Lake D'Orta, which is considered as one of the most fascinating lakes in Italy. A 45 minutes drive will take you to the fashion and cultural city of Milan.
A stay at Palazzo Giolli offers you a perfect escape from the daily hustle of modern life, in touch with nature and history, enjoying sports and great gastronomy.ground floor
