Lake Como days are all about living life – Italian style. That means you get to stay in your very own historic building located just seven minutes walk away from one of the most stunning lakes in the world. Relax and unwind in your comfortable apartment. In the morning, potter around at your leisure before heading out for the day. Visit the famous Como Cathedral constructed in the 14th Century then head over to the Como Archaeological Museum in Palazzo Giovio. At the water's edge, take the funicular up to the charming town of Brunate where you'll revel in jaw-dropping views of the lake. Later in the afternoon, go on an unforgettable woodland walk to the Baroque Villa Balbianello, where you'll sit on the terrace with gelato and admire the views of Vergonese and Bellagio off in the distance – we loved making memories that will last a lifetime.
