Next door is the Casa Vista Romantica (see photogallery one), therefore they are suitable for 2 families who wish to spend their holidays together, but still having their own private spaces.
The house is situated 800 meters away from the town centre where you can find a selection of bars, restaurants and shops and from the Lenno’s Lido, one of the nicest and most popular beaches of Lake Como.
The most beautiful villas, first from all Villa Balbianello spread out in this part of the lake called Tremezzina. Villa Balbianello holds a fantastic position with views up and down the lake, with its gardens that are extraordinarily beautiful and its loggia that are absolutely worth a visit!
