The area around Caslano is disseminated with panoramic paths between lake and mountains and the village is full of charming churches and ancient buildings. A short walk away from the house you will find the renowned trail around Monte Caslano, a pleasant walk on the shores of Lake Lugano characterised by a truly fascinating natural scenery. The Sassalto mountain dominates the village and it is a natural environment, protected by the Swiss Confederation on account of its interesting geological, faunal and botanical characteristic. Museum goers may visit the Fishing Museum, one of three in Switzerland, a camera exhibition of the Vincenzo Viccari Foundation and the Chocolate Museum, that gourmands of all ages will absolutely love.

Hideaway in Caslona
The home was very clean and quiet as it is situated at the end of the street. The view across the water to Italy is lovely. It is a short drive or walk into the adorable old town. We really enjoyed the hot tub too…even in the rain!
