Hey from Federica

Hello, I'm Federica, and together with my husband Ivano, we made the decision in 2012 to renovate my grandparents' house. I have spent several years in the tourism industry, and I hope that my experience will be appreciated by our guests. Our philosophy? To make our guests feel at home in a warm and peaceful environment.

torsten

It is a very beautiful, clean and above all very quiet accommodation, about 10 minutes below Peschiera. The property is very nice and offers places to retreat and sit quietly in the garden, a small barbecue area and space for playing games. Bicycles can also be borrowed. The couple bakes a lot themselves; the food is very tasty and they cater to the guests' wishes. We would go again and recommend it.

A bit difficult to get to, but amazing location and breakfast. Once we were there, the location wasn't really an issue as you can borrow a bike free of charge, and the hosts were kind enough to give us a ride back to the train station.

Our stay was impeccable. The cleanliness was perfect, the place was new and very charming. What made the difference were the owners, especially Federica with her kindness and helpfulness.

Great stay with Federica and her husband, who treated us to varied, generous, homemade breakfasts! They are lovely and very attentive. The location is a 10-minute bike ride from Pescheria, 40 minutes from Sirmione, the pearl of Lake Garda, and our hosts lent us bicycles. We highly recommend it!

Extremely pleasant and comfortable stay with the host Federica that gave us a lot of very valuable recommendations related to places worth visiting, places to enjoy Italian food and get local olive oil - very much appreciated. Would not hesitate to stay there next time visiting Garda lake.

theresa

Our stay was extremely comfortable. The room was spacious and well equipped. It was quiet, clean and located away from the busy tourist area. Our hosts were amazing, always checking we had everything we needed and giving us advice about the local area. They even had bikes that we could use to take ourselves into the town which was ideal for us. Breakfast each morning was a feast, including homemade baked goods. Overall, one of the best places we've stayed in. We would definitely go back.

The place is wonderful, surrounded by trees and very quiet, not far from the city center. The host, Mrs. Federica, was wonderful in her dealings and provided us with all possible assistance, including transportation in her private car to the city center and the train station. The rooms are very clean and spacious, and the breakfast is five stars and very delicious, prepared by Mrs. Federica and her husband Ivano. It was a wonderful stay and I recommend it to those who want to spend quiet, romantic times away from the city's noise.

We had a really wonderful time with Federica and Ivano. It's rare to find such friendly and helpful hosts. The rooms were clean and beautifully decorated, we didn't miss anything. The highlight was the breakfast every morning, a great variety and beautifully presented. Special thanks to Ivano, who made sure we had fresh, homemade rolls and pastries every morning. Very nice terrace and outdoor area, plus the quiet location. There were also secure parking spaces for our bikes. The location of the accommodation is ideal for bike trips. Regular trains run from Peschiera del Garda to Milan and Verona. We recommend the accommodation without any reservations! Hospitality is very important here.

stayed from 06/23/2024 to 06/26/2024

The answer from the host:
Thank you, it has been a pleasure to have you as guests and to know that you have appreciated our way of hospitality. It is very important to us. Best regards. Ivano and Federica

david

Federica could not have been a more lovely host. Very abundant breakfast including homemade bread & cakes, as well as eggs, yogurt etc. She loaned us bicycles (free!) to use during our stay and was very helpful with recommendations for activities. We enjoyed dinner there the first night - very reasonably priced, abundant & delicious. The room was spacious and everything spotlessly clean. We had a large terrace with the room which we also enjoyed. We felt very looked after by Federica & missed this hotel when we left it. We even had leftover cake from a breakfast and had it the next day in Verona and commented that Federica was still looking after us! Highly recommended hotel, thank you again!

stayed from 06/04/2024 to 06/07/2024

The answer from the host:
Thank you, we are very pleased that you have had a pleasant holiday. Our goal is to provide our guests with a peaceful vacation by offering traditional dishes. Best regards. Federica and Ivano.

bonnie

Wonderful stay at this B&B. Frederika genuinely cares about the guest comfort and she is a dedicated hostess. She had good recommendations to explore the bike path and offered free use of the B&B bicycles. Location is in a quiet neighborhood, only 1-2 km from the main area of Peschiera del Garda - a perfect location for me. Room included a very abundant breakfast with homemade bread and pastries, meat and cheeses, coffee, and Frederika also made scrambled eggs.

Second year as guests of Federica and Ivano, lovely place, convenient for trips on the lake and to the nearby larger cities. The owners' advice on various activities to do and more or less known attractions to see is always valuable. Familiar and never taken for granted welcome, superb breakfast with excellent quality products and always served with a smile, which never hurts. Cozy rooms, ample outdoor space to relax after an excursion. For us, the best, see you soon. Thank you for the splendid welcome you always provide.

We had 4 great days at B&B Il Grande Salice (Bike Friends). We were warmly welcomed by Federica who provided us with nice information about the area. She is a very helpful and friendly owner and we were pampered every morning with a delicious extensive breakfast with many fresh products. Great location with a lovely garden and it's fun to explore the area around Lake Garda by bike. Bikes from the B&B can be used by guests. Definitely recommended to book and a nice B&B to come back to!

Federica was an amazing host. A lovely and peaceful location so close to Peschiera, a beautiful and bustling town by Lake Garda. Breakfast was brilliant with lots of homemade pastries and breads, and fruit grown on the property. Federica had bikes we could use as well to ride down the cycle paths alongside the river. We had a fantastic time and will stay here again when the opportunity arises.

My wife and I stayed for 3 nights. We were welcomed by Federica who made us feel immediately comfortable and always very helpful. The place is a 3-minute drive from Peschiera but at the same time it is immersed in greenery where you can breathe a homely and relaxing atmosphere. The room is well-kept, comfortable, and very clean. Not to mention the breakfast, homemade sweets and biscuits (by Federica and her husband), savory, fruit... Truly fantastic! Highly recommended!

If you wish to visit Lake Garda Desenzano, Sirmione, Peschiera, etc... (and inland the nearby cities of Verona and Mantova) then this B&B is really the place to be to escape the tourist crowds. We booked 3 nights and thoroughly enjoyed the peace and quiet and the sympathy, friendliness and helpfulness of Federica, the hostess who takes care of her B&B with love and passion. Not luxurious, but a neat, well-maintained room with a beautiful large private terrace and... a very tasty and varied breakfast! All this for a very fair democratic price. We think this B&B deserves a big 10 out of 10 points! We were 100% satisfied and hope to come back here next year.

A single piece of advice: go there if you need to visit Lake Garda. The structure is new, clean and located in a very quiet yet strategic place to reach the points of interest (from parks to cities). Federica, the owner, is extremely helpful and in the morning she prepares a super breakfast without missing anything. The excellent reviews are truly deserved! A place we will definitely return to also because it is very suitable for children who can play in the garden without dangers. Thank you Federica. Until next time!

We were very pleasantly surprised by the overall package. Location, lovingly furnished rooms, bathrooms all top, quiet and rurally idyllic yet very central between wonderful towns and sights. But everything is overshadowed by the hostess Frederica. In a very pleasant way, she provides great tips from museums, parking lots to gastronomy. Whether it's a small fridge for the room, a wine opener or a sun lounger, Frederica has fulfilled all our wishes. The best for last: Italian breakfast can sometimes be a bit meager. Not with Frederica! Here we have a generous buffet! Freshly baked bread from her husband, fresh fruit, a fresh omelette etc... simply a dream start to a new holiday day. Thank you for everything!

We stayed 2 days at this property, a stunning, well-kept and tidy place. Very nice and clean room. The owner welcomed us in a familiar, polite and kind manner. Abundant, varied and very good breakfast. We will definitely come back.

We are a family of two adults and a ten-year-old girl. We found the perfect place to relax and visit the beautiful surrounding area. We felt pampered and comfortable right from the start, it felt like being at home! The owners are kind, helpful, and discreet. Excellent breakfast and everything very clean. Thank you Federica! Tiziana Leo and Mariaclotilde from Bari. We will come back!

I stayed only one night but I found myself in a small corner of paradise, clean and welcoming, managed by capable, kind, and very accommodating people. I recommend it to everyone because such facilities are really rare. Congratulations again, we will meet again soon.

We found this Bed & Breakfast just a few hours before staying overnight. Federica was very kind to welcome and host us. Even though our private bathroom was outside the room, we still had our privacy. Abundant and excellent breakfast with homemade pastries. Impeccable cleanliness. Furthermore, Federica is very knowledgeable and available to suggest characteristic places and itineraries in the area. Absolutely recommended!

My partner and I stayed at this very charming Bed & Breakfast for only one night, just enough time to relax one day wandering around the surrounding areas and one day of fun at Gardaland. The property is located in a very quiet, green, and chaos-free area, but it is easy and quick to reach the amusement parks and the lake areas from here. It's truly relaxing. The hosts serve an excellent breakfast offering homemade cakes and bread, yogurt, fresh fruit and cold cuts, as well as milk, coffee, and tea. The lady is very helpful with information about places to visit nearby. The property and the room are notable for their cleanliness. A really nice place to stay. We highly recommend it!

Recent structure very comfortable, great for reaching the various attractions of the lake. The family management is very welcoming and makes guests feel at ease. It is rich in information on all the sites and events, knowing how to advise well on what to see and where to eat. I think I will go back soon.

We stayed, passing through, for only one night but already at the moment of booking made the day before arrival, it seemed like a good solution to me (simple and pleasant online images seen, affordable price). The first hour impressions then turned out to be very well-founded as we found a warm welcome in the evening and the accommodation (LAVANDA) very pleasant, and especially waking up in the morning and finding, from the terrace, a beautiful view of the countryside (although being 5 minutes from the lake) and in the kitchen a welcome breakfast so varied, simple and genuine. See you soon.

Vi ringrazio del vostro giudizio positivo sulla nostra struttura, cerchiamo di fare del nostro meglio! Un saluto a tutta la famiglia, anche alla sorella in Sardegna.

A pleasant B&B as we would have never expected. Outside the city, slightly in the countryside, it is an extremely well-kept environment with very clean and beautiful rooms overlooking an idyllic garden with a large willow tree in the center. We used the structure as a base to go to Gardaland and the thermal baths of Colà, both reachable in no time by car. The hosts' welcome was impeccable, very helpful and very friendly. The breakfast was one of the best we have ever had, with really tasty homemade desserts and the company of the owner who was always available but never intrusive. Highly recommended.

Ci fa tanto piacere sapere che i nostri ospiti trovino la nostra casa un ambiente accogliente e tranquillo. Grazie mille e salutateci la vostra splendida Firenze. Ciao Federica e Ivano.

I stayed at the B&B Il Grande Salice (Bike Friends) with my girlfriend for two consecutive nights. We were looking for a place located near Gardaland and various other parks around Lake Garda. We came across a clean, well-furnished, and well-equipped place; the breakfast was abundant and varied with homemade bread and delicious pastries. Points in favor are also given by the courtesy of the managers. Surrounded by greenery for a relaxing vacation. Recommended.

sergio

The welcome and availability of the owner and her whole family are excellent. The environment is particularly suitable for families with children who can play in the greenery. There is attention to detail in the rooms and the garden. It is a quiet and pleasant place, convenient to both the lake and Gardaland. The price is fair and takes into account the family quotient. If we get the chance, we will gladly return.

eleonora

We stayed at this establishment, my husband, our 3-year-old daughter, and I, for only one night as our goal was to spend a day at Gardaland. It was an excellent experience at this establishment. The couple who manage it are very kind and helpful. The cleanliness is impeccable. We will definitely return in September. They also advised us on where to dine. Everything was perfect except for a terrible storm that limited our ability to enjoy the outdoor space available at the establishment. Go there. It is fantastic for couples looking for relaxation and for children.

tommaso

Excellent bed and breakfast. Very close to Peschiera (less than 5 minutes) and the other main destinations on Lake Garda, located in a beautiful green area. The owner is present and very available. Spacious, clean, and well-furnished rooms. Excellent quality/price ratio. I recommend it to everyone who is vacationing in the lake area, including short stays, Gardaland.

We are a young couple who stayed in this establishment for only one night. The lady who welcomed us was really kind and helpful. The structure is surrounded by greenery and is very well maintained. Our room was essential but had everything we needed, clean, and we were particularly surprised by the spacious and well-kept bathroom with a huge shower. The breakfast was really excellent as well as abundant. The location of the establishment is ideal for those traveling by car, given the ample parking, its proximity to the main roads, and being away from the chaos and traffic of nearby tourist centers. A note of merit for the quality/price ratio, really ideal for young people who want to visit the lake area without large expenses. We would definitely return and recommend it!
