Onno cottages

Property was very clean and exactly as described. Deborah was a very helpful host.

As a family of 4 (with 2 young children aged 3 and 5) our stay at Roveglio cottage was just perfect. The place is very peaceful with a beautiful terrace that has amazing views of Lenno and the Lake (perfect for a glass of wine when the kids were in bed!). The farm was great for the children Antonella and her father showed the children the chickens, rabbits and cows, they were thrilled with this and especially fox (who is a dog!)! They are incredibly quiet for farmers and we barely heard them! The cottage is roomy, light and very clean. I don't think the pictures do it justice. Perfect for a family as it has a lovely big living space (a nice big kitchen, diner, lounge). The children's bedroom was on the first floor, not ground floor as there are steps up to the Villa. This was not a problem at all as there is only a small flight of stairs up to the main living accommodation and master bedroom. We could hear the children from our room but also took a monitor which worked perfectly well for when we were on the terrace. The drive up is at first akin to a roller-coaster, but you do get used to it! The walk down and back up was too much for us, it took us 20 mins down and 45 back up, this was carrying a 3 year old in 30c degree heat!) but we had no problem parking in Lenno at the Lido or supermarket for the day. Lenno was lovely, surprisingly quiet, with a nice number of restaurants, access to the lake and beach to swim, both our children did this safely with armbands and loved it! The road train was fun day out to Mennaggio and the passenger ferry at Lenno a ferry ride to Bellagio, amongst other places. We got a water taxi (10 mins) to the beautiful Villa del Balbianello (National Trust members get a discount) . Again we all thoroughly enjoyed this. The kids found it very exciting. All in all we had a perfect holiday Jeannie and there was nothing you could do to improve such a beautiful place. Thank you for sharing it.
