About Sirmione
Sirmione sits on the Sirmio peninsula, which divides the lower part of Lake Garda, and the comune borders Desenzano del Garda and Peschiera del Garda. The homes are packed close to the town, nearly all with air conditioning, and they are small, sleeping two to six at most. Around half have a pool or a garden. The Scaliger castle, begun in 1277, stands behind a moat and is reached by two drawbridges. At the northern tip of the peninsula, the Grotte di Catullo are the ruins of a Roman villa covering about two hectares, with a museum on site. The town is also known for its thermal water and has a thermal centre of international standing, and windsurfing and sailing are on offer on the lake.
