The whole area is very well serviced by shops and restaurants. There are two shops in front of the apartment, both open Sundays, and there is a Conad supermarket 4km from the apartment. Local restaurants within 5 minutes walk include Trattoria Nord e Sud, a Pizzeria, and the Ristorante Bar Imbarcadero. The Gelateria Antica Torre on the lake front is renowned for its home-made ice cream.
There are many places to visit in the local area, lots of wonderful places for day trips for adults and children, great walks, and a good selection of sporting and other local activities are available.
This wonderful lake is still little known outside Italy. Lying in the foothills of the Alps, with low hills at the south end of the lake, but higher mountains at the north end. The scenery of Lake Orta is gentle - and inviting! - just as the local people are warm and hospitable...
Most of our holidaymakers arrive by air at one of Milan's airports (the nearest, Milan Malpensa airport, is just 24 miles away) and pick up a hire car, often taking advantage of the cheap flights that are now available. See our table of flights for information on airlines flying to the region. For U.K. holidaymakers who prefer to drive, it's an easy two day drive.
