This studio apartment puts Lake Como on your doorstep. You can wake up to the sound of the water, then pad out to the small patio to enjoy coffee with a view. In terms of size, it's not the largest home, but it is stylish. There's a small kitchenette – not the best for large meals but well-suited to snacks – as well as a comfortable bed and a couple of armchairs. You'll be based in the small town of Carate Urio, where cobblestone streets lead to scenic trails and local amenities. Como, Bellagio, and Menaggio are also within driving distance when you're keen to explore.

Home truths
This is a studio apartment. The bedroom isn’t separate from the living area.
As this is a ground-floor apartment, you’ll be right on the street. It’s likely you’ll hear some noise during your stay.
Access to this home is without stairs, making it a good fit for those who have limited mobility.
You won't find an oven here – though there is a hob. We think the kitchen is better suited to prepping lighter bites than large meals.
Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay. There’s free street parking in the area, but it may be tricky to find a spot.
