Lake Como villas - Spend your vacation in a breathtaking Italian villa!
Lake Como, a gorgeous lake formed from glacial origin, is situated in the
region of Lombardy, and is Italy's third largest lake.
You will be drawn to this beautiful area, just like celebrities and famous
artists from all over the world who flock to Lake Como to relax in the
reflection of its blue-green waters. This is a place for fun - take a dip in the
water, a sail along the tide ripples, and experience the adrenaline rush of
windsurfing and kite surfing! The Lake is shaped in the form of a "Y", with
picturesque towns like Colico embellishing its northern branch, and Como and
Lecco marking the southwestern and southeastern points.
Your
Lake Como villa will be amongst numerous other magnificent
villas along the Lake, many of which have admirable gardens and boast a history
that reaches deep into Italian nobility. One of the most enjoyable activities in
this area is hopping on a Lake Como ferry, which transports you to many of the
small towns and villages that dot the perimeter of the lake. No matter which
boat you choose, you will be draped in elegance and rich Italian culture at each
stop, and you will find numerous delicious Italian restaurants to quench your
appetite.
Be sure to venture from your villa and check out the Sacro Monte di Ossuccio, or
the "Sacred Mount of Ossuccio", which is located on a hillside slope between
olive groves and woods along the western edge of the Lake. The path to the
Monastery is remarkable, with fifteen Baroque style chapels, all built between
1635 and 1710 and dedicated to the Mystery of the Rosary, eloquently marking
your journey.
There is no other place in Italy that you will find such an illustrious expanse
of lush countryside, prominent mountains, and delicate waters than in a
Lake Como villa.
