High above Torri del Benaco, nestled among the hills of Lake Garda, the Mediterranean gardens of Borgo SAN SONNEA unfold as a living sanctuary of tranquillity, abundance, and connection with nature. Ancient olive trees, fragrant herbs, seasonal vegetables, and aromatic citrus fruits reflect the natural rhythms of the landscape. Here, the beauty of nature can be experienced with all the senses—in the scent of plants, the changing richness of the seasons, and the quiet joy of discovering the gifts of the earth.
Between ancient olive trees and Mediterranean plants, quiet paths lead through a living garden landscape. Herbs, seasonal vegetables, and fruits can be gathered directly from the garden, creating a deeper connection with the natural rhythms and cycles of the earth. Chickens and ducks are part of this vibrant ecosystem, bringing life and harmony to the garden. Fresh eggs, the scent of herbs, and the wide views across Lake Garda create moments of simple connection with nature in its most authentic form.
The ancient olive trees of Borgo SAN SONNEA carry the story of this landscape within them. Each autumn, their fruits are carefully harvested by hand and transformed into our own olive oil, preserving the flavours and character of Lake Garda. Our olive oil accompanies the cuisine of the Borgo and is available in every apartment—for fresh dishes, simple rituals, and the authentic taste of the region.
The paths winding through the gardens invite guests to embrace mindful moments, where they can harvest fresh herbs, vegetables, and fruits to enhance their own creations in the kitchen. A small ritual that awakens the senses, deepens the connection with nature, and is accompanied by a breathtaking view stretching across the entire Lake Garda.
