About Lake Como
The stay
A fully catered stay in Lake Como
On Lake Como the house is part of the landscape: a park running down to the water, a boathouse, the mountains rising behind. Life moves by boat, and the best moments are on the lake itself
Our chef cooks between lake and mountain, lake fish, risotto, cheeses from the valleys, and the butler sets the table where the view is best. Days can include a boat to Bellagio, a visit to the great villa gardens, or simply a long lunch at home
Simone arranges what the lake requires: private boats with captain, drivers for Milan and the airports, reservations in the villages
Best months
April to October. May, June and September are ideal: gardens in bloom, mild weather, calmer water traffic. July and August are warm and lively
What we arrange
- Private boats with captain, by the day or the hour
- Visits to the lake's historic villas and gardens
- Drivers to Milan, Switzerland and the airports
- Dinners at home with lake and mountain produce
- Shopping days in Milan
- Celebrations and private events at the residence
Getting there
- Milan Malpensa Airport: around 1 hour to Como
- Milan Linate Airport: around 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes
- Lugano is about 40 minutes from Como by car
