Castello Del Sole

Our Resort

140 acres of pure bliss. And countless reasons to come back

The Castello del Sole, together with the Cantina alla Maggia winery, is a unique oasis of relaxation, immersed in nature on a 140-hectare estate. A space without doors or windows. At the Castello del Sole, you have the beauty of the Ticino at your fingertips. The estate exemplifies the natural luxury of The Living Circle.

Surrounded by natural, lush landscapes, it is a retreat where you can enjoy the beauty of southern Switzerland. A bird sanctuary, a botanical garden and an orchard come together on the shores of Lake Maggiore to create a magical retreat for special moments.

Our philosophy of "from our farm to your table" can be fully experienced here. We serve rice, corn, fruit, vegetables, wine and other fine products fresh from our fields and gardens.
