Boutique holiday homes
by Lake Maggiore and beyond

where soulful stays meet the art of hosting

Welcome to
TerraBucci

Thoughtful property management
and intentional hospitality by Lake Maggiore.

TERRABUCCI is a boutique property management studio rooted in the beauty of Lake Maggiore and other Piedmont lake gems, where the art of hosting is guided by care and intention. More than just a property manager, TERRABUCCI is a personal vision shaped by a deep love for hospitality, aesthetics, and meaningful travel.

spaces that tell a story

We curate holiday homes that reflect the essence of their surroundings, blending character, comfort and conscious design. Each space is carefully selected and styled to offer not just a stay, but a sense of belonging.

From lakeside escapes to hilltop hideaways, we welcome guests into places where every detail tells a story — of local textures, timeless charm, and the quiet joy of feeling truly at ease. We work closely with homeowners to enhance the uniqueness of their homes and make each stay memorable for the people who live it, even just for a few days.

the meaning behind terrabucci

“Terra” means earth — a symbol of nature, rootedness, and ecological awareness. “Bucci” is our couple’s nickname. Together, they tell the story of who we are and what we believe in: a hospitality rooted in place, shaped by passion, and open to the world — one soulful stay at a time.

what we do,
and how we do it

We care for homes, host with soul, and share the beauty of our territory—one thoughtful stay at a time.
We select homes that reflect our vision of hospitality, and help their owners prepare them to welcome guests in the best possible way—offering styling advice, restyling support, and our signature sense of care. From check-in to check-out, we take care of every detail for both guests and homeowners—ensuring a serene experience for those who stay, and peace of mind for those who entrust us with their spaces.

for homeowners

We care for homes with soul—and host with heart, on behalf of homeowners who share our vision. We offer complete support for holiday rentals, from thoughtful home staging to check-in & check-out coordination, enhancing each home’s unique charm before and during every stay.

for guests

We offer a handpicked collection of holiday homes for those who love the easy charm of lake life, where water, nature and beauty are part of the stay. Inspiring lake views, meaningful details, and spaces that invite you to slow down, jump in, and make every moment count.

beyond the stay

For curious souls seeking more than a place to sleep, we love to share authentic ways to explore and connect with our land: true local flavours, nature walks, artisan visits, and quiet glides across the lake. Simple moments, made special by the land—and the people behind it.

experiences

We offer places to stay. And suggest excuses to feel.

At TERRABUCCI, time slows down—and that’s a gift in itself. But for those who wish to explore, we love to share a collection of soulful experiences we’ve discovered along the way, a few ideas to help you fall in love, slowly, with the simple wonders of this place.

From wine tastings in local vineyards to nature walks, boat rides, artisan encounters, and hidden local kitchens, each experience is a heartfelt suggestion—an invitation to connect with the land, awaken the senses, and embrace new perspectives.

Wakesurf

Chase the rhythm of the lake and ride its waves barefoot and free. Wakesurfing on Lake Orta is pure joy in motion — for dreamers who crave a splash of adrenaline.

Stand up paddle

Glide across the lake and discover its magic from a new perspective. Join a guided SUP tour or paddle freely at your own rhythm — a gentle adventure where silence becomes scenery.

Aperiboat

A toast in golden hour with local flavors and lake views. So photogenic it might break your feed.

Personal griller

Imagine this: a circular fire, flames dancing in the open air, and a chef who arrives at your vacation home with everything needed to turn your garden into a stage of sizzling flavours.

E-Foil

Glide above the lake’s surface, where silence meets speed. An electric foil board experience on Lake Orta — for those who dream of flying, with their feet still kissing the water.

Island-hopping on Lake Maggiore

Sail through the elegance of Lake Maggiore with a private boat tour to the Borromean Islands. Discover aristocratic villas, botanical gardens, and a timeless fishing village — all floating in beauty, history, and light.

Cooking class

Guided by a local cook, learn how to make traditional Italian pasta and other recipes from scratch, using just a few essential ingredients and a lot of heart.

Vineyards Visit and Tasting

Wander through sun-drenched vineyards and historic cellars, and taste the soulful depth of Piedmont’s most iconic wines — from elegant Barolo to crisp Alta Langa. A journey for the senses, rooted in tradition and poured with passion.

E-BIKE ESCAPE THROUGH HILLS & VINEYARDS

Ride effortlessly through woodland paths, hilltop villages, and scenic vineyards. With an e-bike, the journey becomes gentle — allowing you to soak in the views, the silence, and the soul of this land.

Berry harvesting

Wander through fields kissed by the sun and pick your own blueberries, raspberries or kiwi berries. A slow, joyful ritual that brings you closer to nature — one fruit-stained hand at a time.

“Elena is a amazing host. Her communication was fantastic, making it very easy to check in, even though our flight was delayed, nothing was a problem. She was on hand with recommendations for local spots.“

“Elena & Matteo sont de super hôtes. D’excellent conseil Elena & Matteo ont toujours été disponibles lors de ce séjour.”

“Elena and Matteo are definitely professionals when it comes to hosting with clear instructions, and guidance and a very warm communication.”

Elena and Matteo were truly kind and helpful hosts. We had one rainy day, and they were ready with great suggestions for indoor activities. We felt warmly welcomed, and the house was everything we had dreamed of.

Elena and Matteo are perfect hosts, they are kind, welcoming, flexible and lovely people and they are there always when you need them.

But what truly set our experience apart was the outstanding hospitality of our host, Elena. She went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of our stay was perfect. From providing recommendations for local activities to promptly addressing any questions or concerns we had, Elena truly made our trip unforgettable.
