Brione sopra Minusio · Ticino, Switzerland
The Village Stone House
Village life above the lakeThe stay
Made for a different pace.
A three-level Ticino stone house for three, with a king bedroom, an attic sleeping room, balcony breakfasts and the calm of an old hillside village.
This traditional stone house sits in the old village of Brione sopra Minusio, among shaded lanes on the hillside above Locarno. The home is arranged over three levels, with an open kitchen, dining and living space, a reading corner and a pellet stove that suits slow evenings indoors. The main bedroom has a king-size bed, a small desk and direct access to the private balcony. A second queen-size sleeping room and smart-TV lounge occupy the attic. The layout accommodates up to three guests and includes a crib, but the internal stairs between levels are an important part of the house. Free parking is directly in front of the property and lockbox self check-in makes arrival independent. Locarno and Lake Maggiore are about ten minutes away by car, while village paths and useful places for groceries or meals are available in the surrounding area.
