Enjoy the tranquility at the North Italian Lake Iseo in the vibrant village of Tavernola Bergamasca. Our very well-equipped holiday home is situated about 100 meters above Lake Iseo. Casa Iseo offers breathtaking panoramic views from the large terrace, equipped with a comfortable garden set, large umbrella, sun loungers, and a barbecue.
Be enchanted by the view of the world-famous Monte Isola and the beautiful and special smaller islands, Isola di Loreto and Isola di San Paolo. Drive 65 km around Lake Iseo and discover the charm of authentic Italian life, without the mass tourism of the larger lakes.

A few years ago, we had a front-row seat from our terrace to the world-famous art installation 'Floating Piers' by the artist Christo. It was a temporary artwork on the water of Lake Iseo, consisting of 70,000 m2 of yellow fabric, supported by a modular floating dock system of 226,000 high-density polyethylene cubes.
There are numerous (sports) activities possible around our place: cycling, mountain biking, hiking, golfing, kayaking, sailing, and in winter also skiing (45 minutes drive) are common activities.
Shopping and city visits are within easy reach. Franciacorta Outlet Center (20 km) has 140 shops with well-known brands and real outlet prices. The covered shopping center Elnoss in Brescia is also great, with hundreds of shops, just a 45-minute drive away. As well as the Orio Center, also hundreds of covered shops near Bergamo airport.
