Cream Roses

Cream Roses: Lombardy

Walk to stunning Lake Como in around two minutes when you stay at this bright and cosy home. There are a variety of cafés, restaurants and supermarkets on your doorstep too. Other attractions nearby include the pretty Giardini del Tempio Voltiano, just over a five-minute walk away. It's around the same walking distance to Como Cathedral and Basilica di San Fedele for history and architecture lovers.

Back in this apartment, open up the French doors to the Juliet balcony and take in the vistas over the terracotta rooftops to Lake Como's wooded hills. We love the living room with its polished wood floors and vases of cream flowers. Whip up some risotto for dinner in the modern kitchen if you don't fancy eating out. This home is the ideal Lake Como bolt hole for a couple, friends or solo traveller.
