La Pinetta

a Private Mountain Retreat

near Lago Maggiore

The Property

Arrival at La Pinetta is through a pine forest driveway that creates a natural sense of transition. The pace slows. Sound softens.

The property sits quietly within its mountain setting, surrounded by gardens and open land shaped over time rather than designed all at once. Life here unfolds largely outdoors, guided by light, weather, and the landscape itself.

The Houses

La Pinetta is composed of three independent houses set within the same mountain landscape. Each has its own orientation, atmosphere, and relationship to the surrounding gardens, allowing the property to be lived in as both a shared place and a collection of quieter, private spaces.

Movement between the houses is natural and unforced, shaped by paths, terraces, and outdoor areas rather than corridors or formal boundaries. This layout supports a gentle rhythm — coming together for meals or conversation, then retreating for rest and quiet.

01
La Casa
nel Bosco

Set slightly apart and looking directly into the pine forest, La Casa nel Bosco is the most secluded of the three.

It is defined by stillness and shade, with interiors that feel protected and inward-looking.

It suits those seeking deeper quiet, early mornings, or a sense of withdrawal within the wider life of the property.

02
La Casa
della Vista

Oriented toward open mountain views, La Casa della Vista feels outward-facing and expansive.

Light and landscape play a central role here, with interior and exterior spaces flowing easily into one another.

It naturally becomes a place for gathering — not by design, but by how people tend to move through it.

03
La Casa
di Pietra

Built in local stone and grounded in the landscape, La Casa di Pietra centres around shared living and outdoor meals.

Its terraces and dining areas encourage long evenings and unhurried time together, particularly in warmer months.

It feels elemental and anchored, with a strong connection to the land around it.

How the property is used

La Pinetta is used for small retreats and extended family holidays that value presence over programming and time together over activity.

It is particularly suited to reflective gatherings, retreats, and families seeking unstructured time in a natural setting.

The property is not suited to large events, parties, or uses requiring heavy infrastructure.

What to Expect

A gentle pause from the pace of everyday life.

Stays at La Pinetta are simple, unhurried, and intentionally unstructured.

The property is offered as a whole and shared selectively, allowing guests to settle into the rhythm of the place rather than follow a programme. Days tend to unfold outdoors, shaped by weather, light, conversation, and rest.

La Pinetta is best suited to those who value time together, simplicity, and care for the place they are staying in.

It is not a hotel, and the rhythm of a stay is defined by presence rather than programming.

❋ Shared Exclusivity

La Pinetta is offered as a whole, with exclusive use of the entire property.

Three independent houses sit within one shared setting, allowing guests to be together while still having space to retreat.

The property offers a calm, private environment shaped by its mountain setting.

There is room for gathering and conversation, as well as space for solitude, rest, and reflection.

❋ Outdoor Life

Gardens and outdoor areas are central to life at La Pinetta.

They are designed for everyday use — walking, eating, resting, and being outside — rather than for events or staged occasions.

❋ A Light Touch

The owners remain discreetly in the background.

Services are intentionally limited, allowing the experience to be shaped less by what is provided and more by how the property is used.

Stewardship

La Pinetta is maintained with a long-term view. All income generated through stays is reinvested into the care and continued development of the property, with particular focus on the gardens and landscape.

The property follows a seasonal rhythm. Periods of use are balanced with periods of renewal, ensuring the long-term care of the place.
