Villa Monastero is situated on the lake side at Varenna on the way to Fiumelatte. This is directly across the lake from Menaggio. The villa, as the name indicates, was a Cistercian convent dedicated to St. Mary Magdalene. It was founded in 1208 by a group of faithful followers who had escaped from Comacina Island, after the Island was destroyed during the war between Milan and Como.

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. See discovercomo.com for more details.

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.
