followers who had escaped from Comacina Island, after the Island
was destroyed during the war between Milan and Como. See discovercomo.com

| Villa Carlotta
is situated in the town Tremezzo, a short drive or ferry ride
away. The villa and the gardens date from the fist half of the
18th century and were built for the Marchese Clerici as a summer
home away from Milan. The 18th century gardens were laid out
in the former classical italian style. The neoclassical villa
stands above three terraces linked to the lake along the central
axis by a series of double stairways with imposing balustrades.

| Villa Serbelloni
is situated on the wooded promontory of Bellagio which divides
the lake in 2 branches. This is across and slightly to the right
of Menaggio and a 5 minute Ferry ride. The villa is surrounded
by approximately 50 acres of perk and garden; the main house
has a breathtaking view of the lake and the mountains. The villa
was built in 1605 for the owners of the promontory, the Sfondratis,
and in 1788 it was bought by the Serbellonis, a Milanese family
who developed the property and the garden much as it is today.
