A quiet retreat on the western shore of Lake Como, where time slows down.
The Lake Como area sits in the heart of Lombardy, just two hours from Milan and a few minutes from the Swiss border. Shaped like an upside-down Y, the lake stretches between alpine peaks and gentle hills, with small villages clinging to its shores since Roman times.
Here the rhythm is slow. The towns along the lake, from Bellagio and Varenna to Menaggio and Tremezzo, can be reached by ferry, by the historic cable cars that climb up to mountain villages, or by the small winding roads that cross olive groves and chestnut woods. Old stone bell towers, hidden villas from the 1700s and panoramic viewpoints turn every outing into a small discovery.
For centuries the lake has inspired writers, painters and travellers, from Pliny the Elder to Alessandro Manzoni. It still offers the same things they came looking for: silence, water, mountains and a few hours where the world goes quiet.
Casa Aurelia is a recently renovated apartment where the original exposed stone walls typical of old Lariano houses blend with modern comfort. It sits in the heart of Pognana Lario, a quiet little village on the western shore of Lake Como, just 12 km from Como and 17 km from Bellagio.
Here time slows down. Mornings open with the murmur of ferries on the lake and the sound of the little church bells, evenings close with the light fading behind the mountains. A place of stillness and romance, ideal for couples seeking a peaceful retreat and for families looking for an authentic Lake Como experience.
The bedroom opens onto a large balcony with a magnificent lake view. Upstairs, in the top-floor mansard, a relaxation room dedicated to yoga, meditation and rest is the perfect spot to start the day or find silence again in the evening.
Free Wi-Fi is included, and your four-legged friends are always welcome.
Prices are for the entire apartment, for 2 people, and include final cleaning. The apartment sleeps up to 4 guests: an extra €15 per person per night applies for any additional guest beyond two, in every season. Minimum stay 2 nights. Book directly with us and you'll find a small welcome gift waiting for you on arrival.
