Agriturismo Ai Castioni

We had a really wonderful 5 day/nights stay at Agriturismo Ai Castioni. The view down on Lago di Molveno is wonderful, and there is a view up toward the Dolomiti as well, watching the paragliders come down off the mountain. Our room, Abete, was large, the bed (a king) was perfect. We ate here every night and didn't tire of it. Matteo and family (there are photos on the dining room wall of his..great? grandparents, who built the place as a farmhouse) are most hospitable. I know all this sounds too good to be true, but we couldn't have had a better stay. While the town below is bustling with tourists in August (though not as much as other northern Italian towns, even nearby Andalo), Castioni is literally above the fray--quiet, peaceful. There is no AC, but none was needed, even in a heat wave, as the temperature cools down at night and you can thrown open your balcony doors. A tip: the town beach is crowded in August, but if you go to the other side of the lake you can find some stretches of "beach" or smooth rocks where you can swim. Buon viaggio!
