The Lombardy / Lake Como Area
The area offers water as well as beautiful mountains for trekking or to use a mountain bike. A day on the beach a day in the city (Como or even Milan) a day to visit part of the picturesque and romantic area like Santa Maria Rezzonico, Menaggio, Porlezza (Lake Lugano 10 km), Varenna (15 min by boat), Bellaggio (8 min by boat), Lenno, Laglio (where George Clooney lives) then a day in the mountains with spectacular views the west coast of the lake, where Menaggio is situated is very well known for it's villas which you can visit.
The most important one is in Tremezzo, it is called Villa Carlotto, built in 1750, now converted to a museum with fantastic botanic gardens. You have a different trip every day, next to relax in and around the apartment. Shopping is very good in Como or even in Menaggio, of course Como is a bigger city and offers more shops, but Menaggio is very pretty and has a great atmosphere as well we can help you rent a bike and much more.
Menaggio / Croce area
Menaggio is a bustling village and lively resort with a good deal of character. It stands at the junction of a valley leading west to Lugano in Switzerland, approx 25km away. But below is the lovely main Piazza Garibibaldi and surrounding alleyways. Menaggio is well kept, attractive and has a fine view east across the lake to Bellagio and varenna.
It also sees more of a mix of visitors than many of it's neighbours, with a reputation for sports and activities - famously golf, hiking and cycling in the mountains as well as swimming and sunbathing on it's beach. Eating out in Menaggio with great food for often very reasonable prices. Menaggio enjoys the sun all day and it's inhabitants are friendly and helpful.
