This apartment caught our eye for its views across Lake Como. Best enjoyed from the private balcony while sipping an espresso in the morning or a Prosecco as the sun goes down, you can also see the water from the open-plan living area and bedroom. While the access via a cobbled path and steep stone steps means this home may not be suitable for those with limited mobility, we think it’s a great option for a couple wanting a fuss-free stay in a beautiful location.

Home truths:
*If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair for free. You'll need to request them in advance.
*This home is on the third floor without a lift. It might not be the best option for those with reduced mobility.
*At full capacity, two of the guests will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the living area.
