Detached | Isolated | Cottage
  • 4 persons

The Rustico is located on the hiking trail to Cardada, 250 meters from the parking lot. It consists of a living room with a wood-burning stove and a balcony, two bedrooms, a hallway, a kitchen-dining area with a refrigerator (no freezer), a shower/toilet, and a basement. The accommodations are ideal for a stay of 2–3 people and offer pleasant 3-star superior comfort. The house and surrounding area are not particularly suitable for small children. From the garden with its seating area, you can enjoy views of Lake Maggiore, the Brissago Islands (193 m above sea level = Switzerland’s lowest point), the Monte Rosa massif (4,634 m above sea level = Switzerland’s highest point), and the Ligurian Alps, 240 km away. If you’d like to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life for a while without having to forgo the amenities of modern infrastructure, a stay at “Casa Romantica” is a unique experience unlike any other.

Nature and surroundings

It’s located in the middle of the forest and is a wonderful place for nature lovers, hikers, cyclists, musicians, writers, and more. From Locarno, it takes just under 30 minutes by car to reach the parking lot, including 7 km of narrow, winding mountain road with many passing places. You should be comfortable driving in reverse on mountain roads. If you’re traveling by public transportation, take the bus and cable car from the Locarno-Muralto train station via Orselina to Cardada, and then hike downhill for about 30 minutes to the house. In Cardada, you’ll find various recreational activities and several restaurants. Numerous hikes can be started right from the house. Excursions to the Ticino valleys or to Italian markets offer a lively change of pace from the quiet forest life.

    General rating: 9 /10

    Absolutely fantastic. The only thing is, getting there is quite a challenge: a 5-kilometer steep climb with frequent 100-meter stretches where only one car can pass at a time. You also have to walk 200 meters along a steep, bumpy hiking trail to reach the cottage. But once you’re there, it’s a dream spot.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    Right in the middle of the forest with a view of Lake Maggiore, and with a deer that wandered through the garden in the evening. This is exactly what you’d expect from a nature house.

What does “contactless stay” mean?
You can stay here without personal contact with the host, for example via a key safe or digital access. A contactless stay does not always have to be mandatory.
What does “Fireworks-free” mean?
The host indicates that the area is firework-free. Firework-free means that no firework bangs can be heard in and around the accommodation. You might occasionally hear some noise or see some light from fireworks set off outside the immediate area. It is important that you agree with the landlord on what you can expect.
