Very comfortable,well equipped and clean.Description was accurate, with parking space. Fabio the host was very helpful and pleasant and spoke excellent english. Nice views and although over a road, it was quiet, with only the odd car that probably lived in that road. Overall excellent.

Fabulous location

The Little House on the Bridge was ideally placed for getting about Menaggio - close to the lake side, beach, shops restaurants and ferry. The house is quirky with everything we needed. We didn’t do any cooking as we ate out , just breakfasts and light lunches. Bed was comfortable and air con very welcome. Menaggio is well placed for taking the ferry to Varenne and Bellagio or the bus along the west coast to Como. We didn’t use the car at all once we arrived as there was no need.

Wonderful Vacation

Thank you Fabio for renting us the delightful 400 year old Little House on the Bridge. I stayed there with my children and mother. The air was fresh in the mountains; the sunrise which can be viewed from the apartment was spectacular. The lake was clean and provided a refreshing swim. The walks, ferry ride and speed boat on the river were memorable. The Town was a short walk away and provided all the amenities needed ( a meat, fresh fruit and supermarket) and the restaurants by the lakeside were wonderful. My wife and I were wondering if we should return without the kids and stay longer! I am already recommending this to my friends and family! Thank you Fabio.

Lovely! We enjoyed our stay soooo much!

The apartment is very nice and cozy and we felt very comfortable. Fabio, the landlord, was extraordinarily helpful and very nice and was able to give lots of good tips on various activities in the region. His support was flawless and the communication was extremely clear and most uncomplicated, which we really appreciated. Furnishings and equipment were not exactly luxurious, but we had everything we needed. The small balcony with a view on the lake and the village (classic, tiny balcony for a maximum of two slim people ;), but perfect for breakfast coffee) and the larger terrace are a real asset. Next time we're at Lago di Como, we'll definitely try to rent this cosy, beautifully situated cottage again. Again so many thanks to Fabio!!!

Fabio est un hôte très présent (peut-être un peu trop pour certains !). Sa maison est propre et conforme à la description. Il y a toutefois des bémols :- nous avons attendu 1h30 après l'heure pévue pour pouvoir nous installer (la dame qui faisait le ménage avait du retard. ça peut arriver mais il faisait 40 dégrès et ça n'a pas était agréable)-la ruelle pour accéder à la maison est vraiment mais vraiment très étroite- la climatisation est utilisable de 20h30 à 8h30 du matin (minuterie). Ce n'est pas précisé dans l'annonce.- une taxe de séjour de 21 euros/personne est demandée en liquide à la fin du séjour (Abritel m'a dit de ne pas payer mais j'ai préféré rester en bon terme avec Fabio...) Y'a un gros soucis de ce côté là : ou Abritel ne fait pas son boulot ou l'hôte s'arrange ces fins de mois tranquilou... je laisse juger mais à savoir cela, j'aurais choisi une autre location un peu plus chère avec la taxe incluse...- la literie dans la chambre des enfants est à revoir : les sommiers en ferraille c'est d'une autre époque (pour la chambre principale la literie est correcte)Je ne déconseille pas d'y aller mais il serait bon que les prochaines personnes qui loueront soient au courant de tout cela.

Un logement agréable et très bien situé, avec un hôte efficace et chaleureux

L'appartement est très bien situé pour visiter Menaggio et sa région (Bellagio, Varenna, Villa Carlotta, etc.). Notre voiture est restée garée toute la semaine, tout peut se faire à pied depuis la location : accès au village, à la plage du camping, à l'embarcadère ou aux commerces. La maison est ancienne est c'est très plaisant. Le logement était d'une taille suffisante pour nous 3 (un couple, un adolescent) et très fonctionnel : tout ce qui est nécessaire s'y trouve. Les deux seuls défauts mineurs : la salle de bain pas assez aérée et la chambre des enfants, très chaude (sous les toits ; la période était caniculaire). Fabio est un hôte organisé, chaleureux et prévenant, facile à contacter, merci à lui !

Très agréable séjour à Menaggio

Fabio est un propriétaire charmant qui a su être patient malgré nos trois heures de retard à l'arrivée. Prévenant sans être envahissant, il a su nous donner de très bons conseils pour organiser notre séjour. La maison est chaleureuse et bien placée avec une précieuse place de parking ce qui permet de faire beaucoup de visites via bus et bateaux (attention cependant aux rues très étroites pour la voiture). Située dans un quartier tranquille sur les hauteurs avec une vue partielle sur le lac, elle permet d'accéder au centre ville en quelques minutes à pieds (même si ça grimpe ou descend assez dur). Elle a du caractère (pierres) sans être très grande mais elle est bien équipée (machine à laver, LV,...) avec une jolie terrasse, intelligemment organisée et largement suffisante pour quatre ou cinq personnes (notre cas). Une petite remarque sur la climatisation qui équipe la pièce principale et la grande chambre mais malheureusement pas la petite or celle-ci est prévue pour trois personnes et il y fait rapidement chaud. Nous avons pu visiter bien sûr Menaggio à pied mais aussi Côme, Bellaggio et Varena (que nous recommandons) en bus et bateaux . En vingt minutes en voiture nous avons rejoins le parking de Breglia permettant d'accéder après une heure de marche au refuge à 1400 m avec une superbe vue sur le lac. Nous avons également pu aller à Milan mais c'est déjà beaucoup plus long. Bref, un très beau séjour que nous recommandons sans réserve.

Nous avons été très bien accueillis par Fabio, qui parle également Français, et nous a bien conseillés. La maison est spacieuse, bien équipée avec linge de maison fournis, et très agréable. L'emplacement est idéal, dans le coeur historique, proche de l'embarcadère donnant accès aux autres villes touristiques du lac. Une plage est accessible à pied pour se baigner dans le lac. Une belle semaine pour nous 4 !

Eine besondere Unterkunft

Mitten im ältesten Teil von Como. Die Ferienwohnung ist wirklich zauberhaft. Es sind zu Fuss nur ca. 10 min zum See, zur Budhaltestelle, zum Bäcker und zum Supermarkt und ca. 15 min zum öffentlichen Kiesstrand. Der Weg zurück geht dann ganz schön bergauf. Trotzdem haben wir das Auto nicht gebraucht und es stand die meiste Zeit auf dem Parkplatz. Der Vermieter stand jederzeit für Fragen zur Verfügung und konnte uns gute Tips geben.

Schöne Stadtwohnung in schönem Ort Menaggio

Die Unterkunft war gut in den Ort integriert, zwei Etagen boten eine komfortable Größe. Der Balkon hätte ein wenig größer sein können. Eher für eine als für zwei Personen gedacht. Der Gastwirt war sehr hilfsbereit und gab uns Empfehlungen zu Wanderungen und Restaurants. Der Blick auf See und Berge und die gegenüberliegenden Häuserwand war pittoresk!
