The Lombardy / Lake Como Area
Lake Como, in the shape of an upside down Y with it's forks ending respectively in the towns of Como and Lecco and Bellagio in the centre has appealed to italian artists and poets for many a year gone by. Lying between Lugano and the alps 50 km north of Milan. Many novels including "The betrothed"by Alessndro Manzoni have been set on the famous shores of Lake Como. Whilst famous visitors from Shelley to Longfellow, Lizt to Mark twain who once wrote " and in the burnished mirror of the lake, the houses, groves and boats are counterfeited so brightly and so clearly that one scarce knows where the reality leaves off and the beauty begins!" Nowadays people still return to Lake Como for the beauty and tranquil lifestyle it provides. The gentle climate is perfect for rest and recuperation while the dolce vita is evident in abundance be it food, fashion, scenery or just the laid back atmosphere the welcoming local people help conjure.

The beauty about lake como is in it's diversity offering so much to so many. If you just want to come away for a week or so and put your feet up by the balcony or pool with obvious benefit of world renowned scenery Lake Como will not dissapoint.The area's only sandy golden man made beach can be found close to Sala Comacina where waitors bring you your favourite cocktail while you admire the lake from beneath your minature tented gazebo!
