Views of Lake Como don't get much better than this. From the private balcony, you can enjoy panoramic vistas of the surrounding mountains and the lake shore. You'll undoubtedly want to spend all day out here, and with sun loungers and an alfresco dining table, it's easy to do so. Luckily, the open-plan layout of this cosy apartment means those views are never far away, whether you're cooking up meals in the kitchen or unwinding on the comfy sofa. It's a short drive down to Gera Lario, a waterfront town with beaches and restaurants, or leave the car at home and set off on a hiking trail from your front door.
