- About The Experience
- Plan a getaway to this villa for rent on Lake Como with beautiful views of the lake and village of Pognana Lario. Comfortably furnished, this Lake Como rental villa is within walking distance of the lake and also conveniently located for visiting Como, Mennagio and Varenna. Suitable for a group or family, this rental accommodation has a pretty garden area and terrace for enjoying lake views.
- Location Description
- This lovely Lake Como villa is located about 100 meters from the lakeshore village of Pognana Lario down a steep walkway with numerous steps. Pognana Lario has a post office, cafe and food shop. Como, located at the southernmost tip of the lake which bears its name, is perfect for a day's outing. Sights in Como include the Duomo, the austere church of San Abbondio, the Piazza S. Fedele (with many 400-year-old buildings), and the Basilica, one of the masterpieces of the maestri comacini (Como masters). Located opposite the lake from Pognana Lario, Menaggio is a popular recreation area, with opportunities for windsurfing, water skiing, and other water-based activities. You could also rent a bicycle and explore the area or take a walk down the lakeside promenade, lined with flowers. Drive down from Menaggio on the lakeshore road to Tremezzo or hop on a ferry to visit Varenna or Bellagio. Known as "la perla del lago" (the pearl of the lake), Bellagio is considered by many to be the most beautiful town in Europe. Its narrow cobbled streets, breathtaking views, impeccable homes and glorious villas make it a most enchanting spot to explore. While on Lake Como, you'll discover that the cuisine is based primarily on fish.
