Appartamento in San Lorenzo Nuovo

Lake Bolsena, a volcanic crater lake of the Vulsini volcanic complex, lies immediately next to Bolsena and contains the islands Bisentina and Martana. The lakeshore close to the cluster includes small lakeside towns such as Capodimonte and Marta and Bolsena itself has a medieval centre, the Rocca Monaldeschi castle and the basilica of Santa Cristina (site of the 13th‑century Eucharistic miracle and a focus for pilgrimages). The surrounding ground is volcanic tuff and the Vulsini hills, with Etruscan archaeological sites and necropolises in the area around the lake. Montefiascone (about 10 km south) is the nearest larger town, with market‑town services and the local 'Est! Est!! Est!!' wine association. Viterbo, the provincial capital, lies to the northwest and provides broader services and railway connections. There are no alpine ski lifts within the immediate area; ski resorts in the Apennines are beyond the 15 km radius and require a longer drive. The lake is used locally for boating and fishing and supports seasonal tourism.
