The property is located 500 m above sea level in the municipality of Orselina, situated above Locarno, on the slope of a mountain overlooking Lake Maggiore. The municipality owes its subalpine climate to the lake, mild and dry in winter, moderately warm in summer, which allows for the outdoor growth of lush Mediterranean and subtropical vegetation. With over 2100 hours of sunshine per year, as shown by measurements from the nearby Locarno-Monti Meteorological Institute, the hilly area of Locarno is the region of Switzerland with the highest sunshine duration. The municipality covers about 2 square kilometers and has 750 inhabitants. Orselina is known for its panoramic location (270 - 1230 m above sea level), the sanctuary of Madonna del Sasso, the sculpture park with amphitheater, various hiking opportunities, the Locarno - Orselina funicular, and the cable car to Cardada, redesigned in 2000 by the famous architect Mario Botta.
