Region guide

Why we love it

The breath-taking beauty of Lake Como has been drawing the wealthy and aristocratic to its glistening shores since Roman times. Still impossibly glamorous, a break here will leave you rubbing shoulders with the rich and famous as you take in its pine-clad mountains, rainbow coloured lakeside towns and stunning neoclassical villas.

Soak up the glamour in the lakeside hotspots such as Bellagio and Como. Or take in the towering mountainous scenery from the quaint waterfront towns of Menaggio, Bellano and Lecco.

Wherever you choose to stay, you're bound to fall under the spell of this, the most chic and elegant of Italian regions. Explore the guides below for a more detailed overview of each town and area or pick up the phone to talk with one of our team of experts.
