Cernobbio

If you have chosen to stay in one of the luxury villas for rent on Lake Como by Dolce Vita Villas, we suggest you to spend a day of your holiday visiting the small and popular town of Cernobbio, a charming tourist destination of international interest.

In Cernobbio, located on the Western bank of Lake Como and at the foot of Bisbino Mountain, there is the famous Villa d'Este, dating back to the sixteenth century, which is today a very important luxury hotel with sumptuous decors, an extraordinary swimming pool on the lake and a beautiful Italian garden.

 

The elegant center of Cernobbio owes its name to the presence of an ancient monastery of the twelfth century. The monastery was only the beginning of what became, with an initial bunch of houses, the settlement that had grown until today’s bigger town.

Walking along the beautiful lake, you will be enchanted by some of the most prestigious villas, which made the city of Cernobbio so famous: Villa Erba, impressive and noble residence that once belonged to the Visconti family, today a conference centre; Villa Bernasconi, one of the most precious examples of art nouveau in Italy; Villa Pizzo, charming and romantic residence of the sixteenth century; Villa Fontanelle, fascinating and neoclassical dwelling belonged to the Versace family.

Laid down on the banks of Lake Como, Cernobbio is the ideal starting point to make a pleasant boat trip or bike tours to the nearby town of Como along the 5km of cycle path that connects the two cities.
