Location: Lenno, Lake Como, Lombardy, Italy, Europe (30 minutes from Como; 1 hour from Malpensa/Milan)

Accommodations:  Studio Apartment, 1 Bath (Sleeps 2)

Casa Sherry is a cozy, intimate hideaway suited for single travelers or couples who are looking for an affordable, centrally-located apartment on Lake Como. It is nicely appointed, with original paintings and frescoes on the ceiling that give you a flavor of a romantic era long ago.

The 16th century villa, which houses the studio apartment, was owned by a contessa who lived here until her death in the 1970's. Located on the gulf of Venus in the charming village of Lenno, the villa sits on a promontory that offers incredible panoramic views of Bellagio, Tremezzo and the Italian alps. The gated property has a large garden where you can relax with the view before you. You can access the garden easily as you walk out of your ground-floor apartment.

Lenno is a perfect home base for travelers. Everything is at your finger tips - restaurants, bars/cafes, food & wine shops, banks, a pharmacy as well as the bus and ferry, which enables you to travel leisurely to all points on the lake.

  • Casa Sherry is the perfect place to stay for anyone looking to feel at home on the lake. The painted ceiling and generous room size would be hard to match in any hotel. The kitchenette allows for preparing your own meals also which was a nice alternative to dining out everyday.

  • Comment Text: A very pleasant and convenient accommodation for the week. It is situated on the main floor of the Villa de Herra and steps away from the art studio. Despite its proximity, there is a separate entrance and appropriate privacy and security. The large main room is very clean and inviting with inspiring art and a grand painted ceiling. There are two beds making it suitable for one or two persons. The kitchen and washroom facilities are clean and up-to-date with the added bonus of a washing machine. Conchitina provides ample food and beverages for breakfast and there are several grocery stores within easy walking distance for other needs. Moreover, it is within 2-3 minutes walk of several restaurants, beach and the town center. Use of a MAC laptop computer as well as access to wireless connection for those bringing their own PC's are complimentary. DVDs of a few recent films and numerous books are provided for entertainment. There is no television which I consider a bonus - it forces one to enjoy the true pleasures of this area - the tranquility of a remarkably beautiful setting. I would have no hesitation in staying in this apartment should I return to Lenno - not only for the comfort and convenience but especially for the kind and welcoming nature of the proprietors.

  • Thank you for a wonderful experience. We loved the studio with all its art work and beautiful ceiling. The kitchen was well equipped and the welcome basket of goodies was delicious. The studio is conveniently located, the villa has a beautiful garden with breathtaking views of the lake. Lastly, Conchitina, thank you for the fun cooking class. You are a fantastic cook and gracious host.

    Esther and I were so fortunate to be staying in your lovely studio apartment...I came home with many photos of the ceiling and still can't believe that I was sleeping under it. Some of our Lake Como week seems like a wonderful dream, including the ride in your Lucia. Thank you, dear friends, for a perfect week.  I hope to return as soon as I can.

    Thank you so much for a beautifully designed apartment. It was truly the perfect place to enjoy the Lake and its surrounding. We loved how Lenno was calm and peaceful, but with great access to Bellagio and the rest of the towns on the lake. I will definitely be recommending it to my friends and family.
