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.
