What can you say when everything that you want comes together in one beautifully wrapped package? Well, that is Dimora Bolsone! From the time you pull into the parking area near the house and see the view of the lake to the first time that you meet Raffaele you realize that something good is about to happen. The B&B is...

This wonderful B&B was the last stop of our Honeymoon road trip around Italy and we were booked to stay there for 3 nights. We were greeted by Rafaelle the owner who showed us to our room. The room we were given was right at the top of the building, traditional with furniture which dated back many hundreds of years,... More

This is our best ever holiday stay especially for couples, bursting with romance, the previous reviews say it all. Not the place to take children though.

Very comfortable B&B with congenial host in a beautiful hillside setting above Gardone Riviera set in sloping gardens that are a paradise.

My husband and I recently had the pleasure of staying at Dimora Bolsone for two nights and found it difficult to leave! It's the kind of place where you could (and probably should) spend a whole week just relaxing, detoxing and being nourished by the amazingly beautiful surroundings.

This will be on my "Must Visit" list every time I... More

Four of us just returned from a magical journey through central and northern Italy, and all agreed that the high point of our trip was our all too brief stay at Dimora Bolsone. We have all traveled extensively in Italy and feel as though Rafaelle's Retreat is exceptional. Not only are the rooms lovely, the beds ultra comfortable, the breakfasts... More
