Appartamento Carlotta is situated in the heart of Tremezzo on the western shores of Lake Como, better known as the Azalea Riveria. The apartment forms part of a 250 year old building which was originally the former inn of Tremezzo built in the heart of the town. A short stairway from the apartment leads you directly to the lakeside promenade perfectly positioned to enjoy the best features of Lake Como. Restaurants, bars and all local amenities are within steps as is a ferry point that takes you to all parts of the lake. Tremezzo is famous for Lake Como’s most exquisite landmark “Villa Carlotta”. Within a 5 minute walk from the apartment Villa Carlotta is a museum and art gallery occupying 14 acres of landscaped gardens and commands spectacular views of the lake. Tremezzo, due to its location on the Western shore captures the longest hours of sunshine during the day and remains as one of the international elite's favourite holiday destinations.
