La Corte di Zizi-apartment 'Riva': when grandparents travel with you

My name it’s Alessandra and ‘Zizi’ is the nickname I used to call my grandmother, who left me this house.
‘La Corte di Zizi’ actually was born from the desire to revive this ancient house that has been in my family for generations.
Together with my husband Davide and our sons Luca and Andrea we had fun renovating it, discovering and enhancing the original architectural elements and combining them with functional and modern furnishings.
Davide has taken charge of making the courtyard, onto which all five apartments overlook, a pleasant corner, green and flowery, where our guests can enjoy a moment of relaxation, or have breakfast or dinner outdoors.
Together we have discovered the pleasure of ‘hosting’ and interacting with people from all over the world, trying to make them feel at home and helping them to enjoy their stay and our beautiful lake to the fullest.
Indeed, this was often an opportunity to rediscover our territory, initiatives and itineraries in turn.

Our five holiday homes are an oasis of tranquility in the historic center of Cernobbio, a stone's throw from Lake Como. Five apartments equipped with every comfort and an ancient courtyard will make you feel right at home.

Within walking distance you can find some of the main attractions of Cernobbio (such as the splendid Villa Erba and Villa Bernasconi) and the city of Como, just 10 minutes by car or 30 minutes on foot. Cernobbio is also an excellent starting point for exploring Lake Como.

The proximity to Como, Milan and Switzerland also make it an ideal base for those traveling for work reasons: a peaceful and quiet place, where you can return after a busy day, perhaps after a dinner in one of the surrounding restaurants.
