Step into this lake-view farmhouse reatreat for 10 with a private patio and free parking on Lake Como.

Past a checkerboard-tiled entrance and stone archways, the library holds floor-to-ceiling bookshelves and sofas piled with cosy cushions, looking straight out over the water, an easy spot to read through an afternoon. The dining room seats the group at a dark wood table surrounded by red upholstered chairs, opening onto a balcony over the lake, and the kitchen-diner is fully equipped, an oven, dishwasher, microwave, coffee machine and cooker hob among them, for cooking as a group. One bedroom carries the same period character through an ornate carved wood bed frame, and two more open onto their own private balconies over the lake. Wood-beamed ceilings and stone walls run throughout, keeping the whole house cool and breezy even in summer, and a private patio outside gives the group another spot to unwind above the water.

Location

The villa sits in the hillside hamlet of Santa Maria, above the village of Rezzonico on Lake Como\'s western shore, a quiet, secluded setting away from the busier towns on the lake. Wiki Beach, a gastro pub, and Alimentari Tori, a local grocery store, are both a 5-minute drive, alongside Spiaggia Santa Maria Rezzonico and a handful of other beaches and trattorias in the same 5 minutes. The nearest bus stop is a 10-minute drive. Como town and San Siro are both reachable by car for shopping, restaurants and the lake\'s ferry services. A couple of hiking trails, Montuglio and Monti di Gallio, are about a 15-minute drive, for anyone wanting a day on foot above the lake. Milan\'s airports are roughly 1.5 hours away by car.
