Lake Garda Villas & Apartments

Lake Garda is like an inland sea in Italy and has all the vibrant life you would expect at the coast. This is why many people flock to rent Lake Garda apartments, Lake Garda villas for their self catering holiday accommodation around the shores of the lake.

There are many towns and fishing villages stretching around Lake Garda with most centred around the southern and eastern shores of the lake, where you can spend your holidays. These locations around the lake have a wealth of holiday apartments with holiday accommodation to suit all tastes. There are also some lovely Italian rental villas on the western shore of Lake Garda. Some of the more popular destinations are Torri del Benaco, Lazise, Garda and Bardolino (the name of a very good Italian red wine) which all have many self catering Lake Garda apartments and Lake Garda Villas for holiday rental.

Lake Garda is close to Verona and within reach of the Valpolicella wine area and Venice. There are also some lovely quieter areas towards the north of the Lake and on the western side. For children there is Italy's largest fun park called Gardaland. This is easily found south of Lazise and must not be hidden from your children ! Along the main road, not far from here, you will also find the water funpark 'Caneva' and, between Pastrengo and Bussolengo, the nature park Parco Natura Viva. The latter has a large safari park including a botanical section, as well as a Dinosaur park where you can take a journey back to pre-historic times.

Another worthwhile place to visit in the holidays is the botanical garden 'Parco Giardino Sigurti' ? that can be found in Valeggio sul Minncio. At Authentic Italy you can book self catering Lake Garda accommodation for your holidays in Italy and in the area of Lake Garda, you can choose from Lake Garda apartments, holiday cottages and Italian villas to rent.
