Villa Padiglione is the lake’s other soul, leaning against a stairway that gently descends into the water, amidst vases and stone balls that adorn its edges. A grand hall, frescoed with the colours of perpetual summer, is set between magnificent French windows looking out onto the patio and with its back covered by a warm and welcoming fireplace. The rooms, with sloping ceilings and a large library, make it an elegant refuge where one can enjoy the spectacle of the fruit trees, flowers and statues that envelop the house like a gentle protection.
