Noble Elegance with a View of the Lake

Overlooking the shores of Lake Maggiore, Villa Claudia dei Marchesi Dal Pozzo blends aristocratic charm with the fluid elegance of a true celebration space. Once a private residence of the noble Dal Pozzo family, the villa opens its terraces, salons, and gardens to regal and relaxed weddings. Whether exchanging vows on the panoramic terrace or dining in light-filled Liberty-style halls, couples find a rare balance between tradition and ease. With lake views, a private dock, and a curated sense of privacy, every detail is steeped in Italian character — with just the right touch of formality.

Why Choose Villa Claudia dal Pozzo

An aristocratic villa with character — and no pretense

Villa Claudia isn’t just about the view, though that alone would be enough. It’s the way sunlight cuts across the antique floors, the quiet formality of the salons, and the sense that every room has witnessed something worth remembering. The space feels composed, not staged — a place where elegance holds its shape, even as the mood shifts throughout the day.


Spaces that guide the celebration, without forcing it

Each villa area offers its own rhythm: the terrace invites stillness, the garden opens up, and the connected halls encourage movement. You don’t have to force transitions — they happen. Guests naturally follow the flow, from the ceremony through to aperitivo, dinner, and the late-night celebration, each part anchored in the setting without calling attention to itself.


Exclusivity, hospitality, and quiet sophistication

Villa Claudia hosts only one wedding per day — giving each couple complete privacy. On-site suites offer overnight accommodation for close guests, while music can continue indoors until 3 a.m. The result is an intimate yet effortless celebration with just enough structure to let beauty unfold.

Venue Highlights

There’s a rhythm to weddings at Villa Claudia — arrival by boat, a quiet ceremony on the terrace, glasses clinking by the pool. The gardens wrap gently around the villa, with tall hedges, climbing roses, and shaded paths leading toward the lake. It feels private, expansive, and unmistakably Italian.

Inside, high ceilings, antique woodwork, and a soft patina of age welcome you in. Four connected salons open onto the panoramic terrace, each room blending into the next with quiet grace. Later, the candlelit library or the poolside garden becomes the scene for a final toast — a closing note that lingers.
