Firstly Manuela was a great host, meeting us, recommending local restaurants and places to visit and even arranging a yacht tour to Monte Isola for the day. (Roberto was an excellent skipper)
Castro is a very small but pretty village within walking distance from Lovere. The local restaurant was delicious and busy. The apartment is directly over the road from the lake and ferry stop with an stunning view of the surrounding mountains. It is a clean and spacey place, we had 2 kids with us and did not feel crowded. A great location to explore the surrounding area.
Overall, Manuela was first class..!
