Holiday homes come in many forms in the country, from Alpine lodges perfect as a base for skiing, to city flats that put you at the heart of the action in Zürich, Geneva, or Bern. On Lake Geneva, you'll also find the city of Lausanne, with gorgeous palaces, medieval streets, and a historic cathedral.
Ticino is the Italian-speaking part of the country, with the breathtaking city of Lugano nestled between a lake and the Alps, offering one of the many examples why the natural beauty of Switzerland is so prized. Besides the stunning natural scenery, the city's charming Old Town and Cantonal Art Museum are also well worth a visit.
