THE LOMBARDY REGION
The Lombard lakes are among the most stunning features of the Italian peninsula. Everything that man has added has only enhanced their appeal. Known and favoured since ancient times, I have a tradition of discreet hospitality and a relaxed manner. Catch the fishing boats early in the morning, walk along promenades decorated with magnificent gardens and classical villas, climb the narrow streets lined with lovely shops and hidden restaurants, and you will begin to understand how these characteristics came to be.
Protected from the cold northern climate by the Alps, these warm oases of fragrant azaleas, oleanders, lemon and olive trees are easy to reach, mere miles from Switzerland and within an hour by car from Milan's Malpensa airport. No visit to Lombardy is complete without exploring Milan itself, Europe's centre for fashion, shopping and style, Da Vinci's Last Supper, the Duomo and La Scala, the world's leading opera house.
