Villa Bellini. is situated on the sunny northern side of Lake Como in Moltrasio, a charming village three kilometres from Cernobbio. Its immaculate grounds extend to the waterside where there is a dock for arrivals by boat. They include rose gardens, vegetable gardens, orchards, olive and lemon trees near the swimming pool terrace and eleven working fountains – considered some of the most spectacular on Lake Como.
Set within such beauty is the villa itself, whose origins lie in the 17th century, having been designed by one of the region's most important architects, Felice Soavi from Switzerland. The villa was completely restored and renovated in 2002. Since then the frescoed ceilings, the floors - a sophisticated mixture of coloured seminato, terracotta from Lombardy and antique wood - the beautiful sculptures, paintings, tapestry and Venetian chandeliers have all helped to create a unique and magical atmosphere.
Over the centuries many famous artists, musicians and statesmen including Napoleon Bonaparte and Winston Churchill have been guests of the villa.The most famous long term visitor was Vincenzo Bellini who lived there from 1829 till 1833, writing his famous opera La Sonnambula here. On request and at extra cost is a modern guesthouse annexe within the grounds which can be used for additional guests.
