Description

A beautiful lakeside bolthole with five-star service on your doorstep. We can’t think of many better ways to spend a romantic week with your other half.

The Mosaic House is a luxury villa in the Italian Lakes that offers an intimate and peaceful location for a quiet break for two, but with the benefit of the facilities of a luxury hotel. The house is part of the Villa d’Este hotel’s estate, so you can make the most of the many bars, restaurants and wellness facilities and will be well looked after at all times by the hotel’s attentive staff.

The house is designed to echo the elegant looks of the fabulous Villa d’Este itself but with a modern twist. Recently restored from top to bottom, the house is decorated in light, neutral shades that allow the property’s wonderful location to sit centre stage – no need for exquisite works of art on the walls when each window from the high-ceilinged living room frames one of nature’s most glorious landscapes. The calm waters of Lake Como are glimpsed through every window and both this room and the bedroom open onto a private terrace which overlooks the fortresses and the lake – the perfect spot to enjoy a coffee first thing in the morning.

The bedroom itself is a really restful space, with an en-suite marble bathroom where you can enjoy a long soak in the late afternoon before wandering over to one of the hotel bars to start your evening – or if you prefer, simply order room service to the privacy of your intimate villa. Foodies will not be disappointed by the menus here.

If you manage to drag yourself away from your cosy four walls, there’s lots to do in and around the hotel, from the spa, sports and tennis clubs, to cycling and running tracks and the gentle buzz of Lake Como itself – whether you’re out on the water or sitting at it’s edge with a book, enjoying some of the best quality people-watching in the world to the sound of water gently lapping the shore.
