Lake and mountains, vines and hills, villas and castles, churches and monasteries: these are the attractions that contribute to making Franciacorta the ideal place to spend your holiday in a fun and relaxing way, accompanied by excellent cuisine from the mountains and the lake, washed down with prestigious wines that have won awards all over the world.
An artistic heritage of priceless beauty has been embodied over time in the
Abbey of Rodengo Saiano, in the Convent of the Annunciata di Rovato and in the Monastery of San Pietro in Lamosa; however, it would be a pity not to visit also the many little churches that adorn the paths along the hills. Franciacorta and Sebino offer numerous destinations, each one different and interesting in its own way. Starting from Monticelli Brusati, the sound of pristine waterfalls accompanies the tourist along this wonderful path; continuing, immersed in wild and protected nature, we arrive at the Torbiere del Sebino nature reserve, a jewel of conservation. In fact, this land offers evocative glimpses of itself, in every season.
Home to important wineries, Erbusco also offers visitors the chance to admire
Villa Lechi, while Bornato has its fascinating castle as a landmark. Should you desire to discover the local flavours, Franciacorta proves to be an inexhaustible source of delicacies, offering always-changing menus. The typical Beef with Rovato Oil is considered to be an excellent example of Franciacorta cuisine, and
you can enjoy it at our lakeside Bella Iseo restaurant. To tell the truth, it must be said that there is no corner of Franciacorta where you cannot enjoy delicious dishes accompanied by glorious wines, produced locally and renowned globally for their quality.
