CASA VARENNA - COMO

Villa Profile

Varenna Lecco Como

Description

Casa Varenna is a two minute walk from the main square, grandly overlooked by The Royal Victoria Hotel, and where payable car parking is available. We recommend clients park here on arrival then utilise a free car park about 100 metres away. Our two newly furnished apartments are both on the first floor of an individually owned palazzo. Next door is a hotel which clients may use for breakfast or just a quiet drink with those views as our backdrop. From Casa Varenna.s main entrance and hallway there are steps or a lift.

Location

Varenna is a charming lakeside town located on a promontory opposite the fork where Lake Como and Lake Lecco divide. Much less touristy than its nearby neighbour Bellagio, it is peaceful, very quaint and quite idyllic - a garden town framed by green wooded hills and misty blue lake. Cobbled slopes revealing secret lake views are interspersed with bright bougainvillaea, cypress and pine trees. Muted birdsong and the distant hum of a lake steamer are the only sounds. The 16th century Villa Monastero has a classically Italian formal garden and is well worth a morning or afternoon spent in its cool Eden-like symmetry.
