Villa da Vinci

Description

Villa da Vinci sleeps up to ten guests in five enormous double bedrooms. The master bedroom has an en suite bedroom and there are three large bathrooms for the remaining four bedrooms. There are various sitting areas and the kitchen is fully fitted with everything you might need to create Italian meals to be eaten on the terrace under a starlit sky. You can choose between eating indoors or out as there is a spacious dining room inside too. Thanks to the floor-to-ceiling windows, the villa is light and airy and gives an impression of infinite space. To add an extra touch of luxury, there is a gorgeous spa, Turkish bath and sauna to pamper yourself.

A junior villa with 1 extra bedroom and 1 bathroom is available on request (extra charge).

The well-kept gardens are private and have arguably one of the best views of Lake Como. The poolside area is fully furnished with sun loungers and there is plenty of private parking.

Bellagio is a short hop across the lake and is known locally as La Perla del Lago (the pearl of the lake) for its outstanding beauty, quality restaurants, local trattorias, chic shopping and of course the famous Italian homemade gelato ice cream. Ferries leave regularly for Bellagio from nearby Cadenabbia.

Celebrity-studded Como is just up the road and features numerous churches, works of art, museums, theatres, palaces and public gardens. For the walkers, there is a funicular which runs up to the village of Brunate, 700 metres above Como. It is the starting point for some spectacular walking tracks and has superb views of the Alps. Como is famous for its silk and you can either see the full silk-making processes or just sit in the lively piazzas and watch the world go by. Como also hosts various international speed boat races and becomes a magnet for the rich and famous.

Villa da Vinci is only 10 km away from Bellagio and Menaggio, 25 km from the town of Como and 74 km from the centre of Milan. Malpensa international airport is only 35 km from the villa.
