Residence 'Corte Campedella' is a beautiful prestigious gated complex located amongst the vineyards in Bande, Cavriana - on one of the 10 wine and food roads of Lombardy: 'La Strada dei Vini e Sapori Mantovani' and hence a paradise for lovers of Italian food and wine. The condominium consists of only 12 privately owned apartments in the peaceful Morainic hills just a 15 minute drive from Sirmione or Desenzano, on the southern shore of Lake Garda. The building was owned by the Gonzaga family from the end of the 13th to the start of the 18th century. This recently renovated spacious, self-catering, apartment (130 sq. metres) is on 2 floors (1st and 2nd) and is in an ideal location for family holidays as it is situated in private grounds accessed by an electronic security gate. If you are holidaying with another family or group of friends you may also be interested in my adjacent apartment on the same condominium (Reference IT2251) which sleeps up to 4 people.

Guest comments
We've just arrived back safely in the UK after a fantastic break in Italy and I just wanted to say a big "thank-you" to you for providing such a wonderful haven of peace and quiet for our brief stay. The apartment was just superb in every way and so tastefully and comfortably renovated. It was just the perfect base for our trip and everything was provided for our comfort, which is not always the case! So, once again, many, many thanks and rest assured that we would like to return there some day very soon, space permitting. Once again, thanks so much for all your terrific help and for providing the perfect holiday home. The Helders - Nov 05.
The holiday was very enjoyable, with excellent weather all week. The quality of your apartment was an added bonus, and will always be recommended. R Evans, May 06.
Thank you for a fabulous few days. The accommodation is to a very high standard and there's lots to do in the surrounding area. It's hard to fit everything in! The Goldens - Aug 07.
