Lake Como, whose ancient name is “Lario”; is an alpine lake of
glacial origin.
It is surrounded by The Southern Alps and reaching a depth of 476 m, is the largest lake in Italy.
Lake Como is remarkable for its wonderful coastal scenery and the importance of the surrounding mountains.
The towns and villages on the sides of the lake are interspersed with luxurious villas; it is here that in the Seventeenth and Eighteenth centuries the aristocrats of Lombardy established their holiday residences.
Bellagio, the “pearl” of the lake, boasts Villa Melzi d’Eril and Villa Serbelloni.
Varenna has Villa Monastero, Cadenabbia has Villa Carlotta, and Menaggio is graced by Villa Mylius Vigoni.
Lakes and Mountains: The perfect combination for a healthy lifestyle.
Lake Como is an ideal all year round location for comfort and wellbeing; for water sports enthusiasts and mountain lovers.

Nature and mountain lovers can enjoy a wide variety of activities such as woodland walks, high-altitude trekking, cave excursions, rock-climbing and hang-gliding.

accessible.

THE “PERGOLE DI SONENGA”
Menaggio, situated at the mid point
of Lake Como.
On the West bank, where the lake splits into the two arms of Lake Como and Lake Lecco, lies the charming
town of Menaggio.
The region’s network of roads ensures easy links with St Moritz, Lugano, the Valtellina valley, Como and Milan (approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes).
The ancient railway that connected Menaggio with Porlezza and Lake Como with Lake Ceresio, still runs between the mountains and the terraces that slowly descend to the lake’s edge.
The abandoned rail tracks that ran through the town of Sonenga, are still supported by three impressive
stone arches, soaring above a natural amphitheatre that opens towards the lake and is framed by the mountain
peaks of Grigne and Valsassina.
This beautiful setting, of woodland and valleys, was chosen as the perfect backdrop for a village inspired by
local traditions: a combination of elegant Italianate architecture and contemporary design.
The village is known as: “Le Pergole di Sonenga”.

The “Pergole di Sonenga” lies at the foot of steep mountains, surrounded by coniferous woodland and fresh mountain streams.
The village is aptly named after the traditional pergolas that grace the streets and alleyways and support the green
wisteria foliage.

types are offered with the
option of customizing
interiors according to
clients’ preferences.
The apartments are designed to complement

where one can enjoy the privacy of the
swimming pool and sun terrace.
A walkway is planned for bicycles and
pedestrians, connecting Menaggio with
Porlezza and Croce, where there is an 18
hole golf course.
The setting of
(The Pergolas of Sonenga) has been meticulously
planned.
For instance, the terraces have been enhanced with
the addition of plants and flowers to capture the
Charm of the Mediterranean.
These will be adorned with panelled wall boxes,
climbers and terracotta pots, overflowing with flowering
shrubs such as oleander, azalea and pink geraniums.
Security is also paramount in the development.
