The Lombardy / Lake Como Area

Lake Como, surrounded by mountains, hills valleys and cities of art, has much to offer. It is situated in one of the most economically and industrially important regions in Northern Italy, nestled between Lake Maggiore and Lake Garda, right on the Swiss boarder, framed by the majesty of the Alps, where different cultures have merged over the centuries to form it’s unique and inimitable charm.

While spending a holiday on Lake Como, you will have the chance to see much more than you would expect.
You could explore its breathtaking surroundings, beautiful villas and picturesque villages…

You could compare it with the less well known but far from less beautiful Lake Orta and Lake Lugano…
You could visit the nearby cities, full of history and culture, such as Milan, Bergamo and of course Como the capital city of the Lake, just to mention a few…

You could slip into Switzerland and pay a visit to Campione D’Italia and its casino, or travel a little further and enjoy the nature in one of the jet-set ski resorts such as St. Moritz.

Carate Urio area

The apartment is situated on the boarder of the ancient village of Carate Urio, still unspoiled by modernization, keeping its old world feeling with characteristic streets and stepped lanes crossed by low bridges which join the century old houses. Small local shops with, only too helpful shop-keepers, are nearby.

Cernobbio with it's world famous Villa D'Este is 5 minutes drive away, the city of Como, the silk capital of Italy is 15 minutes away and of course Milan, one of the world's fashion leaders is 45 minutes away. You can also find 'outlet' stores nearby and if you cross the boarder into Switzerland there is no end to the shopping in elegant Lugano, while enjoying the beautiful scenery.

There are also several world class 18 hole golf courses within 30 minutes drive, the Monza Grand Prix racing track is 1 hours drive away and interesting old Italian towns such as Bergamo Verona and Venice are all within a days visit.
