The studio for rent is located in Menaggio, on the western shore of Lake Como about mid lake, just 15 min. by ferry from Bellagio and Varenna. Menaggio is one of the most important towns on Lake Como and has been a tourist attraction for hundreds of years. From Menaggio central location, one can easily navigate the whole lake by public boats. Bellagio and Varenna are only a short boat ride away. Lugano, in Switzerland is only 15 miles away, well served by public transportation.

The owner is a US born of Italian Origin resident, with a thorough knowledge of the Lake and its surroundings. He is glad to spend all the time needed with guests to help them planning their hikes, boat trips, shopping trips or simple sightseeing. He also assists with full info on travel to reach Menaggio by car or public transportation, as many do.

    Spacious house in a quiet residential area yet close to everything in town. Lovely views from the front windows. We appreciated the dedicated parking space directly in front of the house although we did not use our car during our stay. Walks, buses and ferries were all accessible by foot, although it was uphill on the way back. We would suggest using the car to go to the supermarket at the start of a stay, then do daily top ups on foot. Some aspects of the property were tired, in particular the garden and patio furniture and also the crockery/glasses. Everywhere was very clean. The owner was in touch via WhatsApp during our stay and offered suggestions for walks etc.
