Small and sweet like a delectable cannolo, Argegno is a lesser-known but wonderfully authentic spot from which to enjoy this stunning region if the glitz and glamour of Como isn’t your thing. A stay in this quaint village on the western shore of Lake Como, about twenty-one kilometres from the city, is like stepping back to a simpler time. This apartment is located just a short stroll from the cobblestone streets and pastel-coloured cafes, shops and restaurants in and around the main village square. Set on the third and fourth floors of a traditional building, the space is fresh, contemporary and delightfully comfortable. Striking light wood beams line the ceilings of each room while concrete-style kitchen units, a sparkling marble bathroom and muted tones give the entire space a sleek, rustic-chic feel. Bold artwork in the open-plan living space adds a dash of colour and exposed stone walls keep the space cool and inviting during the hot summer months. Large bedrooms offer plenty of space to rest and recharge after long days in the sun while views over terracotta rooftops provide the perfect scene to wake up to. But the best part is the gorgeous outlook over the lake from the front window - set across the road from the glistening water, you’ll be a mere ten metres from the lake and a two-minute stroll from the pebble beach. The Lido di Argegno is also just a few minutes away with its grassy beach and waterside restaurant and bar where you can sit and soak up the laid-back atmosphere over your Aperol Spritz.
