New self-catering accommodation on Lake Como

July 5th 2010

Holiday Homes in Italy are pleased to include two new properties in the 2010 portfolio on Lake Como

The third largest of the lakes, Como is outstandingly beautiful with the blue-green waters of the lake contrasting with the dramatic backdrop of the Alps. The Lake and its surroundings have been inspiration for artists, poets and musicians alike. In comparison to its famous sister Garda, Como is a more tranquil and wooded lake. Just one hour from bustling Milan, the lake offers a calm and magical combination of mediterranean shrubbery and mountain peaks.

Pastel-coloured villages perch along the shorelines, where you can find anything from the simplest rural dwellings to the palatial villas of the 18th century. Belaggio in the south is most definitely the prettiest town on the lake with cobbled streets, quaint piazza’s and lovely views. A walk around the town will convince you to pause and take a moment on a sunny bench, stop for an aperitivo at a sidewalk café or pop in to a gelateria for a home-made ice cream. Good food, a relaxed lifestyle, warm summers and autumns make it a perfect destination for holidays.

In Bellagio, we are pleased to add two new wonderful self-catering rental properties to our portfolio as follows:

Casa Bella Bellagio - a wonderful 3 bedroom house sleeping 5 people and located just a 2 minute walk away from all the shops, restaurants and bars that the centre of Bellagio has to offer. £1,075.00 per week

Bellagio Centro Apt A great light and airy apartment right in the heart of the town and steps from the lake - £795.00 per week
