Guestbook

We had a fabulous week with our 13 month old baby. The apartment is lovely, very well equipped and quiet. The view from the balcony was better than expected! Bellagio was lovely but even better was Varenna. We also enjoyed sitting on the waterfront of Lenno - less frantic than some of the other towns.

Baines family, Kent.

This vacation has surpassed all our expectations!! The charm and beauty of the lake area could never be appreciated without having visited such an outstanding, relaxing, friendly place. When can we come back???

Kevin and Elaine, Chester.

What a lovely place Lake Como is and that was in the rain!! When the rain clouds lifted we had a great view from the apartment balcony down the valley to the lake. The mountains which surround it are amazing.

The best way to get around is on foot and ferry. We hired a car and I would say to anyone going don't bother you don't need one. You are so lucky to have a holiday apartment in this part of the world. When the sun shines it is absolutely stunning.

Lindsay and Mark, Barnsley, South Yorkshire.

The apartment is in a beautiful and unspoilt location. I hadn't realised how green the area would be. There is a nice little market in Lenno on a Tuesday where we were spoilt for choice for fruit and salad. The local eateries were very good - especially the local fish and wines. They were delicious. The lake ferries and taxis were good and made exporing the lake easy and relaxing.

The directions were really clear from the office to the apartment and the complementary bottle of wine was a nice surprise on arrival. The apartment is in an excellent location with views of the lake, and the lake front and supermarkets are within walking distance. The best bits according to Robert and Matthew were: Lido, lizard spotting, cable railway (Como), going on the boats, eating pizza and eating on the balcony, land train (Bellagio), Italia shirts. For us, traveling by boat (Varenna, Bellagio, Villa Balbianello), walking along the green way, Market, shopping in Como and Bellagio, wine, coffee and ice-cream!

The McDonald family, Bicester Oxfordshire.

Arrived to a hot 34 degrees - what a fabulous place. The apartment has lovely views of the lake and mountains. You certainly dont need a car. We arrived by public transport, using the bus, train and service bus to Lenno from Bergamo airport. It was very easy to do. The ferry is nearby and it is very easy to get to other places. We enjoyed our trip to Bellagio - The Bellagio point.com (wine taste shop) has a good atmosphere and great wine! The Lido is a great place to go in the afternoon to relax and the evening for a meal. The Tuesday market is good with bargains for everyone. The roast chicken is a must - very tasty! We will definitely go back to the apartment again. Lenno was such a special place for us.

Susan and Stuart Musgrave, Rotherham.
