There are only a handful of places around the world, I think they are called ‘ thin’ zones, and Marco’s place on Lake Iseo is one of them. We were traveling in France and heard about the Christo Floating Piers art installation in Italy and needed a place to stay for a couple of nights. We had heard of Lake Como but not Lake Iseo… Marco met us in town and helped us navigate-sharing local restaurants and best places for breakfast/picnic lunch, etc. This property is amazing! Very private and peaceful. Plenty of room for a couple + children and million dollar views. Nice hike up the mountain to a tiny chapel with expansive views of the lake and lavender/wild flowers. We booked for 2 nights but wished we had stayed for a week. This place is magical!
