Description Lago at Dawn: Sala Comacina

Waking up to Lake Como laid out beyond your private balcony, with the Alps rising snow-capped in the distance, is the kind of moment this apartment is built around. The living space carries that same view, so whether you're cooking or simply sitting with a coffee, the mountains and water are always in the frame. There's also a communal pool at your disposal for keeping cool on warm afternoons. When you're ready to venture out, Villa del Balbianello's dramatic terraced gardens and the elegant Belle Époque promenade at Tremezzina are a short drive away.

Home truths:
* We recommend hiring a car for ease of exploring the area. Parking is available in the on-site garage.
* The apartment is on the first floor with no lift, so you'll be carrying luggage up the stairs on arrival and departure.
* The pool is only open between 1st June and 30th September, so if you're visiting outside those months you won't have access to it.
