Stresa
Cette petite ville, située sur la côte ouest du lac Majeur, dans le golfe Borromée, est l'un des sites touristiques les plus visités du Piémont. Son territoire comprend trois des quatre îles Borromées : l'île Bella, l'île Madre et l'île Superiora, également appelée île des Pêcheurs. La première mention écrite de la ville date de 998, mais déjà à l'époque romaine, la route reliant Milan au col du Sempione passait par ce site.

The villa was built in 1870 by count Alessandro Orsetti and later enlarged by lady Rosamund Marke Wood, the new owner since 1900. Later, the villa was bought by a Scottish official, Neil McEacharn, who Transformed the exteriors in the gorgeous botanical garden we can visit today: 18 hectares, hosting rare species of plants such as waterlilies, rhododendrons, azaleas.
The villa cannot be currently visited, being the seat of the Prefecture of the local municipality.
