Area city center
Bossico is a delightful holiday resort located at about 900 m above sea level, which, given its position, is a true natural balcony overlooking Lake Iseo. The view extends 360°, from Lake Sebino to Val Cavallina, from the Orobic valleys to Presolana and the Apennines.
Thanks to its privileged location, the town enjoys a mild climate due to the proximity of the lake and its exposure to the sun from sunrise to sunset.
Tourists staying there can choose to spend their holidays immersing themselves in the tranquility of the woods, with equipped areas with tables and barbecue facilities, on foot or by mountain bike, along the numerous, easy and well-marked paths that wind through beautiful pine forests throughout the plateau. Alternatively, they can participate in the numerous sports, recreational, and cultural activities organized by various local associations, especially during the summer period.

We stayed at Giulia's place on the weekend of July 17th and 18th. She is very kind, discreet, helpful, and down-to-earth. The property is spacious, comfortable, and cool, with a beautiful kitchen, a nice living room, a good bathroom with a bathtub, and a very characteristic, functional, and relaxing outdoor courtyard. Giulia prepared a cake for us for breakfast and everything we needed to have something to eat. The property is excellent if you want to disconnect from the city's rhythms, as cell phones don't have reception, and great to enjoy trails and peace. Strategic location for Castro, Riva di Solto, Lovere. We will definitely come back! Thank you for everything, Giulia.

We stayed at this property in February with the 'Emotion3 one night of charm' package. We immediately felt comfortable, Giulia and Marta were always available to provide us with all the information for our arrival, places to visit, and where to eat something typical. Everything was already ready and clean for our arrival, on the table next to the bed many maps of the area and brochures of local companies. The room is very large, heated floors, and the breakfast is plentiful and varied, we found a delicious homemade cake made by Giulia waiting for us, many types of tea, coffee, and plenty of fruit juices and jams. Excellent hospitality! We hope to be able to return soon! Chiara&Gianluca

Vi auguro una buona giornata.

We are very satisfied with our stay at Il Portone Rosso, a Bed & Breakfast excellently managed by Giulia, the hostess, endowed with great grace and kindness. The place is located in the historic center of Bossico, yet it is quiet and perfectly clean. The breakfast is abundant and of quality.

Splendid welcome, it was like being a guest at a friend's house. Very clean, pampered at breakfast (we even found a homemade cake). Giulia gave us a lot of information about places to visit and where to eat well. The village is very nice and quiet, and you can take beautiful walks in the green with a lake view. Just a weekend but very regenerating. Thank you Giulia, it was like stopping time for a while.

We stayed with my husband and our children (2-6 years old) at Il Portone Rosso from Giulia. Beautiful structure, spectacular context in the town center. Bossico is a lovely little village, with all the necessary services. Giulia is very kind and very helpful with us and especially with the children, she did not make us miss anything. The structure is clean, spacious and welcoming. It is a weekend to repeat. I recommend it to everyone.
