Simply stunning, brillliant experience and so well looked after. Absolutely recommend
Probably one of the best holidays we've ever had, from the welcome and support before we arrived, to the beautiful location, the views and the ease of getting there. From the moment we made the booking, Katrin confirmed the booking and the owner, Julia was in touch forwarding ideas of things to do and letting us know what to expect. Beautiful drive up Lake Como from Como station where we hired our car. Free parking in the reserved bay opposite is a delight. The apartment is across the road and up stairs, a climb of some 50m - not an easy walk with cases but pace yourself. The apartment is reached by a lift or if you're feeling energetic, a further flight of stairs. But the climb is so worth it. We were met at the apartment by Eleonora for a bit of show and tell. Inside the apartment, clean, well laid out with a double bedroom on the entrance floor and the master bedroom a flight below. The sunny lounge has a spectacular view to the Lake accessed by a balcony. Frankly we could have spent the 10 days just sitting watching and taking it all in. My daughter referred to it like being at the cinema watching a 3D movie. The main road round Lake Como is 50m below the apartment and you have to cross to get to the stairs and it can get busy but you soon get used to the noise. Lovely restaurants in Tremezzo, Argegno and Menaggio and loved the Greenway walk round to Villa Balbianello. The main roads through the towns though are tight, not for the faint hearted but all part of the Italian experience. We just drove to all the restaurants and places of interest. We loved the boat rental, so good we did it twice. And then the Balcone d'Italia - again, so good we did it twice. Don't miss it, we reckoned it was as good as the Grand Canyon for sheer spectacular. We spent four days in Venice, train through to Como, car hired and then dropped off at Milan Malpensa. The apartment is an hour from the airport, half an hour from Como and a two and a half hour flight from Edinburgh. Italy is so accessible, friendly folk and great hospitality. To coin a phrase - "We'll be back".
