Il Cigno Estate
Europe / Italy / The Lakes
The romantic Lake Como, protected by the high peaks of the Alps and caressed by the tranquil waters of the lake, is a “must” destination while traveling in Italy.

OUTDOOR FEATURES
Il Cigno is located down a quarter-mile long gated road guarded by a quaint old gatehouse, in the midst of seven acres of luxuriant gardens and woods. The property enjoys spectacular, unobstructed views of Lake Como. The two residences are separated by a historic harbor flanked by ancient terracotta statues, and each has its own private heated swimming pool. From the property’s park, you can exit through a private gate and enter the nearest village, with its charming square on the harbor, a 17th-century church and the village’s garden with its lovely pergola.
The villas are completely state-of-the art, magnificently decorated with frescoes and have been luxuriously furnished down to the finest Italian linens and antiques from the owner’s collection.
Each villa offers deluxe service and a staff including butler service. A flood-lit landscaped park, seven acres, surrounds the estate.
