Spring and summer are the most chosen seasons to visit Lake Como.
But how is living lake Como and its surroundings during autumn and winter time?
The autumn season and its colors are ideal for quiet walks on the lakefront or for discovering new villages and town on the lake far from the loud crowd. A boat ride to Bellagio under the warm autumnal sun admiring the foliage of the plants that shows colors envied even by flowers or a gastronomic holiday are tempting proposals for a last minute weekend or week gateaway. During the autumn season, Villa Costanza remains open for guests wishing to enjoy a holiday in Blevio or on Lake Como.
In winter, during the sunny days the lake changes to an intense blue, while sometimes it is exuberant as lashed from a cold wind. As it is always different, it is magnificent to admire, and even more when you are in a sheltered place facing a pleasant hot drink. For lovers of the view and for those interested in history, it is possible to quietly discover it with a guide book, or even just reach exclusive destinations such as the many villas on the lake. During the period before the Holy Christmas, Como is beautifully illuminated and hosts the Città dei Balocchi, perfect for Christmas shopping. Villa Costanza is a strategic relaxing place after an intensely lived day thanks to its location a few minutes far from Como and one hour far from Milan.
Finally, in both seasons guests also have the opportunity to visit the churches, museums and historical sites in Como and in its surroundings, to go shopping for the all day downtown or in the famous nearby outlets. Otherwise you can take part in events and traditions typical of these seasons that the locals celebrate since ancient times. At Villa Costanza, Donatella and family will be able to suggest and describe the most interesting events and the best places to visit in each season and will make sure you will have your best time.
Choosing Lake Como is always a success.
