The reputation of the northern Italian lakes as a tourist destination goes back a long way. From the 19th century they have been popular as a European resort, visited for their stunning scenery, lakeside villas and verdant gardens.
Our villas and apartments on Lake Como range from small apartments in the picturesque town of Bellagio, to the ultimate in large, luxurious lakeside villas. Known as the ‘Pearl of the Lake’, Bellagio enjoys a magnificent setting on the promontory dividing Lake Como from Lake Lecco. Its scenic location has enchanted artists and writers for centuries. With its wonderful views, historic town centre and charming cafes, restaurants and shops, it is an ideal base for exploring the many attractions of the Italian Lakes.
Many of our properties here offer a chef service and we are able to provide sample menus on request. The chef is also able to offer cooking lessons during your stay. We are also able to arrange membership at a local Sports' Club in Bellagio, which offers great facilities for families, including a swimming pool, beach volley, tennis, soccer, a bar and a restaurant. Please check with us for details.
Lake Como is reachable by train from Milan and Turin, both of which have airports served by UK budget airlines. Steamers or hydrofoils run between the lake towns.
