Villa Pizzo, Cernobbio

Villa Pizzo is one of the oldest, and perhaps among the most authentic, villas. It doesn't have the showy grandeur of others, but an elegance that strikes you with its history. It's a historic villa with a somewhat magical atmosphere, almost as if time flows more slowly here.

Its gardens are spectacular, gently sloping down towards the lake, possessing a charm that is both a little wild and romantic at the same time. It's a much-loved venue for weddings and special events because it offers that feeling of intimacy and grandeur all at once.
