Cascina Tumas

Cascina Tumas Orta Lake in Pettenasco is an elegant and refined structure consisting of 9 holiday apartments of different sizes and with different layouts, as clearly highlighted in the description of the individual accommodations under the heading “Apartments” on our website. Two apartments are also equipped with specific equipment to overcome architectural barriers.

The family management of the structure allows guests to feel at “home”, to appreciate the cordiality and availability of the managers, guaranteeing a holiday in a welcoming and person-friendly environment.

All the apartments enjoy a wonderful and suggestive view of the lake, from the balconies, equipped with tables and chairs, on the lawn side. Cascina Tumas offers its guests the possibility of docking boats and motorboats in front of the structure itself, thanks to the descent to the lake and the presence of 4 buoys and a covered dock. Sunbeds, deckchairs and umbrellas on the lake shore are available to kind tourists for moments of relaxation and rest.

Cascina Tumas takes its name from the old farmhouse from the early twentieth century, a family property, restored and renovated from which the complex arose. The largest apartment and the reception are located in this characteristic structure; the massive stones of the masonry and the bricks arranged in the peculiar cross shape that created the typical openings to air the hay prepared to dry, have been maintained to let tourists breathe the rustic atmospheres of times gone by. Starting from this ancient core, the other 8 apartments on two floors were then built from scratch.

Wood, stone and brick create a special combination with the lakeside nature in which Cascina Tumas is immersed, offering quiet and splendid views to guests.

Its exclusive position allows you to quickly reach the most suggestive areas of Lake Orta, by car or also using the boat service that docks in Pettenasco, a hundred meters from the Cascina.

You can’t miss a trip to Orta San Giulio with the Sacro Monte complex, the square and the characteristic streets; the small villages of Pella and Ronco on the opposite shore; the Island of San Giulio in the center of the lake on which stands the Benedictine monastery Mater Ecclesiae; Omegna and Gozzano with the Basilica high on the hill, the ancient noble palaces and the 12th century Buccione tower.

On foot you can walk along the beautiful lakeside walk that winds to the right and left of the Cascina throughout Pettenasco. But the mountains are also easily reachable: Mottarone, Valle Strona and the Ossola valleys.

The structure is also located in a strategic point from which you can set off to discover the many nearby cities, such as Novara, Verbania, Domodossola, Milan, Turin or the Piedmont coasts of Lake Maggiore, visiting Stresa and the Borromean Islands or for the more courageous, launching yourself with the zip line above Verbania.
