Villa Sola Cabiati

6 Bedrooms — 12 Guests

Experience true luxury at one of Lake Como's most renowned mansions

One of the most impressive and magnificent properties on Lake Como, Villa Sola Cabiati was once the beloved summer residence of the Serbelloni Dukes. This property is still owned by the original family and now also houses a museum on its top floors.

This stunning lakeside villa dates back to the 1500s, when its central body was commissioned. Two lateral wings were added in 1700s, as were the baroque rounded tympana and the balconies to the façade.

On entering the grounds through gilded lakeside gates, guests are welcomed by stunning Italian gardens. In the park behind, a heated swimming pool is surrounded by sun loungers, day beds, and an outdoor dining pergola. For convenience, the poolside cottage houses a changing room, a bathroom with shower, and a kitchenette.

This grand villa has been impeccably refurbished yet retains much of its original furniture, spectacular frescoed ceilings, damask-covered walls, and impressively-sized living rooms, offering a timeless elegance.

Guests will breathe in history whilst relaxing in the atmospheric living rooms and enjoy sumptuous meals in the grand formal dining room. Less formal meals and breakfast can be taken around the kitchen table.

The villa offers six beautifully-furnished bedrooms and can accommodate up to 12 guests in great comfort and supreme style. All rooms feature en-suite bathrooms and are equipped with modern technology and comforts, yet they retain their original style.

With its impeccable grounds, grand interiors, and modern facilities, Villa Sola Cabiati on Lake Como is the ideal choice for a memorable luxury holiday or special celebration with loved ones.
