Highly rated by guests
Guests rave about the beautiful views and tasteful furnishings.
Cascina Borchina is located on a hill and offers a breathtaking view of Lake Maggiore. It's really hard to describe in words. That's why we've taken a lot of photos (all from our estate, not viewpoints) so you can have an idea of how beautiful our views are, as well as several pictures of the countryside, but it's only part of what we do Offer. We assure you that it is even more beautiful in "nature"!
Getting there
Cascina Borchina can be reached by car in about 10 minutes from Maccagno and its beaches (about 4 km from the hill). You have to climb up the hill for about five minutes, towards Campagnano. Before Campagnano turn into a forest road.
Maccagno is a famous holiday destination from spring to late autumn, due to its proximity to the border with Switzerland (about 6 km). Maccagno is a small town on Lake Maggiore, which offers a lot: free climber in every season right on the rocks on the Lago, hiking and cycling (road bike and mountain bike) and the famous market on Wednesday in Luino (about 5 km away). You can visit the Museum of Contemporary Art, take long walks on the lake, go swimming, boating, pedal boating, beach volleyball or tennis, (right on the lake) or dine in good restaurants and pizzerias. The nearest restaurant is located 1.5 km from the finca. In spring, summer and autumn, Maccagno offers departures by boat to Stresa, Cannobbio, Locarno and the Borromean Islands (... and many other beautiful places).
Cascina Borchina is ideal for long walks, hikes and free climbers, but also for shopping and sightseeing in the cities. By car Lugano (Switzerland) is only 35 minutes away; to Locarno (Switzerland) it is 30 minutes, Milan in about 1:20 in the car or train; Lake Como, about 1 hour and 15 minutes.
Near Lugano (Mendrisio) there is also an outlet with over 80 stores open all year round.
Maccagno has a post office, a pharmacy, a bakery, a pastry shop, a bank, a newsagent and a supermarket, a laundry and a car-sharing service, several restaurants and bars.
A wonderful place for an exciting holiday!

Ein schöner Ort mit einem absolut fantastischen Blick auf den See – man kann sich nicht losreißen. Bettina und Andrea haben das gesamte Anwesen liebevoll gestaltet und die Apartments sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Sie kümmern sich hervorragend um ihre Gäste – es ist fast wie ein Besuch bei Freunden. Es gibt Liegen und Sitzbereiche, die verstreut sind, sodass man je nach Sonnenstand "umherwandern" kann – immer mit einem herrlichen Ausblick.

Eine sehr schöne Ferienwohnung (wir haben in Violetta übernachtet) mit einer atemberaubenden Aussicht! Sehr gute und hochwertige Einrichtung, alles sehr geschmackvoll dekoriert. Bettina und Andrea geben gute Empfehlungen und sind vor Ort hilfsbereit.
Die Kochnische ist gut ausgestattet; wir haben schon in Unterkünften mit nur zwei Bestecksets übernachtet, aber das ist hier definitiv nicht der Fall! Frische Kräuter zum Kochen sind im Garten verfügbar.
Maccagno selbst ist ein guter Ausgangspunkt für Restaurants und einen Supermarkt – und es gibt einen Fähranleger, den wir mehrmals genutzt haben, um die andere Seite des Sees oder den südlichen Teil des Lago Maggiore zu erkunden.
Sehr empfehlenswert!
