Description The Italian Lakeview: Bellagio

Lake views don’t get much better than this. Set in the heart of Bellagio, this apartment gives you front-row seats to Como’s water and mountains straight from the balcony. It’s easy to dip in and out of the action here, with restaurants, cafes and the old town just steps away from your front door, while nearby ferries make exploring the rest of the lake simple. Inside, there’s plenty of space to kick back, with a living area that opens onto those unbeatable blue views. A small, private patio is all yours too, where you can soak up the sun in the afternoon or settle in for an alfresco dinner.

Home truths:
*If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot. You'll need to request it in advance.

*The apartment is on the first floor, with access via stairs only. It might not be the best option for those with reduced mobility.

*If you're travelling for work, you won't find a dedicated desk here. However, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace.
