Villa Rossa
Location and Surrounding Area
Located on the northwestern shores of Lake Como, this elegant ten-bedroom villa is the perfect retreat for a relaxing Italian break by the lake that has inspired poets and artists for centuries. These days the fabulous villas for which the lake is famous are popular with celebrities. Explore the pretty lakeside towns or pull on hiking boots and climb up to castles, mount a horse or grab a mountain bike, and then cool down in the shady garden of one of the villas.
The villa is just a stone’s throw away from Menaggio, a picturesque town of ancient origins overlooking Lake Como. Upon your arrival in Menaggio, you may want to experience the town the way a local would. In that case, start your tour from Via Calvi and take a look at the small boutiques and shops of craftsmen who sell local products. The elegant lake promenade of Menaggio starts from Piazza Garibaldi and is the perfect place for a relaxing walk between flower beds and colorful houses.
Take a boat to Tremezzo, one of the most romantic places on the Lake Como, home to Villa Carlotta. Built at the close of the 17th century, Villa Carlotta was enriched by valuable works of art, including incredible sculptures by Antonio Canova, still on display inside the villa. But the main attraction is its luxuriant garden by the calm waters of Lake Como, which is divided into two parts, an Italian garden designed in the 18th century and an English one laid out by princess Carlotta herself.
The villa is just a stone’s throw away from Bellagio, a picturesque lakeside town surrounded by forested hills. Take a stroll around the steep, narrow lanes of this pretty village and enjoy an evening drink in this celebrated holiday destination. The villa is also a few kilometers from Lenno, nestling by a little bay in the lake. Do not miss the view of the lake from the balcony of the grand Villa Balbianello, take a walk around its magnificent gardens and enjoy the wonderful views from the trails.
The villa is a few kilometers from Argegno, a small village overlooking Lake Como in the area of its major depth. After walking along the characteristic and narrow streets of the old town, do not miss the chance to take in the beautiful surroundings. The villa is also a few kilometers from Isola Comacina, the only island on the lake that can be reached by a boat trip, which is a must when visiting Lake Como. The ferry to the island leaves from Scala Comacina.
Villa Rossa is 90 km from Milano Malpensa Airport, 101 km from Milano Linate Airport and 105 km from Bergamo Orio al Serio International Airport.

How did you enjoy your ISV experience; actual accommodations, amenities and services It was amazing! Daniela, Michael, the staff treated us so well and took such good care of our whole group. We had an incredible week in a beautiful location thanks to the Villa Rossa staff and home. We will definitely consider using the same location in the future for any of our needs. And, all the staff that has communicated with us over the past year getting everything setup and planning have been wonderful. I greatly appreciated each one of them! |
