Holiday Accommodation Novara

Novara self-catering accommodation is set in a province in the Piedmont region, known for its rolling hills, lakes and historic towns. One of the area’s highlights is the beautiful Lake Orta, with a wealth of architectural delights on its shores. The Alps provide a dramatic background to this tranquil setting, where you can enjoy a little seclusion – despite the immense natural beauty found here this lake remains off the radar of most foreign visitors. If you’re heading for Novara self-catering farmhouses, then Orta San Giulio, on the shore of Lake Orta, is a genuine must-see, with its 18th Century mansions, renaissance-era palazzi and array of picturesque churches. Another essential destination during your trip to Novara holiday accommodation is the resort of Arona, on Lake Maggiore, a popular getaway for more than 2,000 years.

During your trip to a Novara bed and breakfast, it’s well worth heading for the province’s eponymous capital; a beautiful city with a stunning historic centre. Here you can see the 19th Century Basilica of San Guadenzio, which is the most recognisable landmark in the city and features a cupola that reaches a height of more than 120 metres. There are a number of other buildings to discover here, including the 19th Century Cathedral, with its neoclassical portico. The city of Milan is within an hour of Novara bed and breakfasts, and stands as one of the world’s best shopping destinations. You could also spend a day admiring some of the city’s staggering collections of renaissance and baroque art.

Weather

At accommodation in Piedmont you can expect weather relatively similar to that on the Ligurian coast. Summers are warm and sunny, while winters tend to be milder, with snow falling on the taller hills.
