Relais Corte Cavalli

“Beautiful Italian Paradise”

We loved our stay here, we had a suite which was gorgeous in a villa style building. The spa is small but perfectly equipped. The food in the restaurant was lovely.

We loved our stay here, we had a suite which was gorgeous in a villa style building. The spa is small but perfectly equipped. The food in the restaurant was lovely. The grounds are so peaceful and beautiful. The service was impeccable! I’m not one to stay in the same place but we will be staying here again. You need a car to get around but driving around the small towns of the area is amazing.

“An honest review..........”

Myself and my son stayed at the Corte Cavalli in Sept 23. It's a beautiful old estate 8-10 min by car / cab (15 Euro) away from the centre of Peschiera. The hotel itself can be found at the bottom of a long driveway and is is made up of a number of buildings which also house the reception, restaurant and wellness centre. I have to say that this is one of the most charming hotels I've stayed at for a number of reasons. The rooms themselves are typical old style Italian but with everything you need including air con and beautiful bathrooms. They are cleaned daily to a high standard. Beds very comfy. All staff are warm and friendly and bend over backwards to be of assistance. The pool area is well equipped, clean and very peaceful being surrounded by fields. We stayed half board and the quality of the food was excellent. The only slight negative was the repetition throughout the week. It's a 3 course menu with a few choices for each course each evening. There was something new each day but still, in my opinion, a few more options throughout the week would be beneficial. Waiting staff are helpful and are multi-lingual so don't worry if your Italian is a little rusty! If you dont have a car, Peschiera itself has a port so the ferries which operate as water taxis, can take you to other destinations round the lake - timetables are available online or from the hotel / port booking office. There is also a train station. Verona is 20 mins away and Venice 1.5 hrs by train so perfect for day trips. The hotel has bike hire which is recommended if you don't have a car as constant cabs into town can prove costly. The wellness centre consists of two saunas, large whirlpool and two sensory showers. There is also a treatment room for massages ( charge applies) The weather was great with an average of 25 degrees. Im told its like this in May and September. July and August can be very hot and humid and the hotel and resort gets busy. The upshot is, if you want a friendly, peaceful place to stay in beautiful surroundings to recharge your batteries and read that book you have had bedside your bed for the last 12 months, then this really is the place for you.

“Beautifull resort”

Situated near by Verona is an hidden gem. Beautifull old farmhouse is transformerd into an hotel with more than 50 chambers. One can have diner in a spacious, but coosy, restaurant. If however crowded the restaurant staf can hardely keep up.

“Mixed feelings”

Mrs V From Pendock is a bit harsh, but she has a point. We took to calling our room, Room 109, "the dark room".

Mrs V From Pendock is a bit harsh, but she has a point. We took to calling our room, Room 109, "the dark room". It seemed as though the electrician who fitted out the place didn't complete the job, as there were only two bedside lights and a standard lamp (all dim) to illuminate a room with little natural light and a dark decor. There were, however, numerous electric switches that served no purpose. After a couple of days, it became tiresome to not be able to see properly. So if you like to read, take a tablet or backlit e-reader. And if you want to see what clothes you have in the wardrobe, take a torch. Also, the wall fixing of the clothes line in the en suite failed, despite us not using it, compounding the impression that cowboy builders had been used. The impression we got was of decent, helpful and friendly staff doing their best in a slightly sub-standard facility.
