The place
Raffa is a hamlet of Puegnago del Garda, in the Valtenesi hills: olive groves, vineyards, small villages and the lake appearing around every bend. You sleep in silence here, and in five minutes by car you are on the beaches of Manerba and Moniga.
This is the Brescia shore of Lake Garda, the quieter one. Salò and its promenade are ten minutes away, Desenzano and Sirmione half an hour, the theme parks on the opposite shore. Verona is less than an hour away.
The Valtenesi is also the home of Chiaretto, the lake's rosé wine, and of extra-virgin olive oil: wineries and oil mills are open for visits a few kilometres from the house.
