Villa Pallavicino: A Place of Wonder on Lake Maggiore
Overlooking the calm waters of Lake Maggiore, just outside Stresa, Villa Pallavicino feels like a place where time has gently paused. It’s a natural park spanning over 20 hectares, where botanic beauty blends with the gentle world of animals — creating a space full of authentic joy for adults and children alike.
Shaded walkways wind through blooming gardens, ancient magnolias, Lebanese cedars, fragrant rose bushes, and wide green lawns shared by deer, goats, llamas, and freely roaming peacocks. Children can get up close with animals in the educational farm area, while adults enjoy peaceful walks, panoramic lake views, and the serenity of a carefully tended landscape.
At the heart of the park stands an elegant 19th-century villa — a quiet witness of another time, inviting visitors to slow down, breathe, and look around with fresh eyes. Every corner of Villa Pallavicino tells a story: of those who turned a private garden into a gift to the public, open to all who seek beauty and connection with nature.
To truly enjoy this place, it’s worth taking your time. The best moments to explore Villa Pallavicino are in the morning, when the park gently awakens and golden sunlight touches flowers and fields. But to experience that peace without rushing, you need a good night’s rest — somewhere that prepares body and mind for beauty.
And when you return, after a day of color, nature, and gentle silence — what could be better than coming back to a place that offers the same calm, the same breath of fresh air? A small hotel nestled in greenery, a home with lake views, a welcoming space that lets the well-being linger long after you leave the park. Because when your surroundings and your inner world align, the journey becomes complete.
