Village restaurants, riverside gardens and individual places to stay, with Verona and southern Lake Garda within reach.
Northern Italy: lakes, mountains & art cities
Old watermills, little bridges and houses beside the Mincio give Borghetto its distinctive fairy-tale character. Excellent restaurants in the village and neighbouring Valeggio make dining part of the reason to stay, with local tortellini a particular pleasure. Away from the bustle of Lake Garda’s resort towns, this is a small, characterful base with Verona, Mantova, the southern lake and Parco Giardino Sigurtà within reach.
Choose Borghetto for the place itself: a riverside garden, a carefully chosen room and an evening meal worth taking your time over. Then add the sightseeing that interests you, leaving room for days close to home. It works as a holiday in its own right, as well as a restful stage of a longer Northern Italy journey.
Combine an art-city stay with a small village base. We shape the balance of sightseeing, garden visits, cycling and time to yourselves around your interests.

Choose a second base for the experiences it adds. Art cities and mountain stays work particularly well with Borghetto’s slower pace; southern Lake Garda can also be explored as a day out.

Spend a morning among the gardens at Parco Giardino Sigurtà, follow the Mincio by bicycle or linger over lunch in Borghetto or Valeggio. For a change of scene, plan sightseeing in Verona or Mantova, or visit the towns of southern Lake Garda. The appeal is having that variety within reach while returning to a village setting.
Food belongs at the centre of a stay here. Allow time for Valeggio’s tortellini, a long lunch and dinner beside the river. We help you balance restaurant plans with your outings, so every day does not become a full-day excursion.
