The property is located at an altitude of 500 m above sea level in the municipality of Orselina, which lies above Locarno on the mountainside with a view of Lake Maggiore. The lake gives the municipality its insubric climate, mild and dry in winter, moderately warm in summer, which allows a lush Mediterranean and subtropical plant world to thrive outdoors. With more than 2100 hours of sunshine per year, as measurements from the nearby Meteorological Institute Locarno-Monti have shown, the Locarno hill area is the region with the most sunshine in Switzerland. The municipality covers about 2 square kilometers and has 750 inhabitants. Orselina is known for its "scenic" location (270 - 1230 m above sea level), the pilgrimage church "Madonna del Sasso", the sculpture park with "amphitheater", varied hiking opportunities, the funicular Locarno - Orselina, and the cable car to Cardada, which was redesigned in 2000 by the famous architect Mario Botta.
