Lake Bolsena Vacation Home

70 sqm of character, 5 km from the shore: private entrance, custom-made furnishings, panoramic balcony.

AuraVista wasn’t furnished from a catalogue. Every choice tells a precise idea of how guests should feel here, from the soft curves of the ceilings to the laminate flooring, from the coloured glass-block wall to the carefully chosen decor. Comfortable. Considered. Out of the ordinary. The apartment is on the ground floor, with its own entrance directly on Via Butinale, just off Corso Cavour, Montefiascone’s main street. Two steps from the street, and you’re in. No lift to wait for, no shared hallway, no neighbours on the landing. Just 5 km from the shores of Lake Bolsena, the medieval town of Montefiascone is the ideal base for anyone who wants the lake within easy reach and, come evening, a genuine historic centre right outside the door.

The Balcony

It isn’t large, but it’s the right spot. A low table, two chairs, and in front of you Montefiascone’s clock tower with the rooftops of the old town in the foreground and, further off, the profile of the Cimini Mountains and Terminillo. In the morning, with the light rising from the east, it’s worth the stay on its own.
