Ascona’s picturesque lakeside promenade and mountain backdrop make for a blissful resort getaway and this easy apartment lies right in its heart. Minimal and bright, a television, dining table and quaint little balcony to sip your espresso on with views out onto the gardens fulfil the list of essentials. The kitchen is compact, but cute and with strips of charming street cafes and restaurants meters away in the Old Town, there is not much need for any more than that. As for the surroundings, Ascona is Switzerland’s lowest lying town and brings you in touching distance of Lake Maggiore, with boat trips, hiking, and biking opportunities. Its 16th Century charm, from the basilica’s high bell tower, to the pedestrianised cobbled streets, as well as the encapsulating mountain surroundings attracts all number of high-flying visitors. This home’s prime location offers you the perfect base from which to explore all the lakeside wonder of the region.
