This villa has a lot to offer. For starters, the location is fantastic. Cernobbio is right at your fingertips – you're just a ten-minute walk from the town's restaurants, lakefront promenade, historic villas, and ferry port. The private pool back home is perfect for an evening dip, while the traditional living area is the definition of cosy. Our favourite spot to unwind is in the sunroom, a glass of wine in one hand and a good book in another. All the bedrooms are comfortable, though one lacks air conditioning, and two others have small double beds. There's also an office for remote workers, an outdoor table for alfresco dining, and private parking for exploring Lake Como with ease.

Home truths:
*Please note that though the single bedroom doesn't have air conditioning, it's a naturally cool room.
*The small double beds are suitable for either a single adult or two children. The downstairs single bed has a pull-out trundle ideal for little ones.
*Your host can provide a travel cot upon request.
*Though a car isn't needed in this location, we suggest hiring one for adventures further afield. Private on-site parking is available.
