Villa Cira, Lake Como

Description

Villa Cira can rightfully claim to be one of the most beautiful properties on earth, we think. Perched on the shore of Lake Como, which has inspired rafts of writers, artists, musicians and poets over centuries, this luxury villa has a truly spectacular outlook onto the lake.

The interiors are exquisitely decorated with sumptuous soft furnishings that befit this luxury property. The building was commissioned by Caroline of Brunswick in the early 19th century to house the former owners of the estate and it has been beautifully looked after and restored. One-off antiques and artworks give the villa a character all of its own. Each room has its own unique personality and the bedrooms are all spacious and airy, and all boast a lake view.

The villa is located in the grounds of a beautiful estate which houses a five-star hotel. As guests of the villa you’ll enjoy access to everything the hotel has to offer, from concierge services, to membership of the amazing fitness suite. You can even order room service to the villa, giving you all the privacy you could ask for as well as the convenience of a stay in a luxury hotel.

Wander among the 25 acres of cypress trees, azaleas, hydrangeas and oleanders, past topiary and statues, down to the lake or across to the hotel bar and make sure you stop, close your eyes and fix the moment in your memory as you go. This is a spot you’ll want to be able to recall down to the last detail, decades from now.
