A dreamy lakefront town
Cernobbio sits prettily on the southern part of Lake Como, not far from Como or the Swiss border. It has an exquisite setting and oh-so-charming streets – par for the course in these parts – and it’s not hard to see why global celebrities love this pocket of Italy.
Have a peek at Villa Pizzo, a 17th-century villa that’s one of the most talked-about locations in Cernobbio. You can tour the fragrant and flower-filled gardens surrounding the villa that overlooks the lake. The town also has a wide lakeside promenade for a scenic stroll if you just want to order gelato and soak up the atmosphere and scenery.
The food is delicious. And you’re not short on places to feast on excellent Italian food in the authentic trattorias in Cernobbio. While fancy restaurants jostle for your business, it’s just as easy to find down-to-earth cafes serving pastries and sandwiches. Order something to go and find a spot overlooking the lake to savour the views.
