Great spot for touring the lake country. Pristine is the best word for the property and Helena was the perfect host. (A car is a must.)

Beyond beautiful !
We so enjoyed our stay in Elena’s beautiful home. She generously provided lovely bread, wine and sweets on our arrival. We were so comfortable during our stay and loved the amazing views.
This charming and comfortable home was perfect for our visit to Lecco. The views from the house and yard were spectacular, and the charcoal grill permitted us to have a cookout one night. Well equipped kitchen, great toys for the children, very clean throughout the whole home, and very gracious host. The fresh bread and cookies and beautiful sweet nectarines left to welcome us were an extra special welcome. Would joyfully return!

Thank you Brigid, I am very happy that you and your family appreciated our location. Thank you again Elena
We very much liked the property and accommodations.
Helena was there to greet us with goodies. The views from the yard were spectacular. We would encourage anyone with interest to stay at Helena’s.
Wonderful Villa, incredible views, Lecco and Lake Como is beautiful.

Villa is beautifull, good location, clean, spacious, even better in reality, than in photos :) Nice garden, good parking. Elena is really helpfull, kind, intelligent woman. Super service :) I would reccomend it to anyone, who travel in North of Italy. Many places to visit nearby - lakes, beautifull villages, mountains. We have spent unforgetable holydays here :)

Thank you very much for your kind comment about me and my home.
Too you are very good guest!
I hope to see you again one day
A warm welcome from Elena was a good start to our week. Used as a base for cycling on the shore of and in the mountains around Lake Como, and worked very well. Would recommend.
We spent eight days in this beautiful villa. Everything was perfect: A wonderful, very clean house with plenty of space (even with an old piano in one of the rooms), a beautiful garden and a marvelous view. The communication was very good. Moreover, we found delicious food as a welcome present. Thank you very much, Elena.
Villa Helena is a magical place. It sits high atop a hill with a commanding view of the town below, lake and mountains. (Be prepared for a windy drive up and many steps.) The house is roomy and comfortable, immaculately clean with beautiful grounds and patio. We were greeted with bread, wine, salami and grapes, and treated to warm hospitality. We were even given a lift into town to take care of some errands. A lovely vantage point to explore Lake Como- we hope to return soon.
Villa Helena is a spacious, well equipped and beautifully furnished villa in a stunning location with marvellous views of Lecco and Lake Como. The Villa has its own garden with outdoor dining facilities and wifi is excellent. The Villa is as good, if not better, than the photos suggest. Although approximately 5 kms from Lecco centre a car is not essential as a reliable bus service is available with a bus stop nearby. Owner, Elena, and the gardener, Gigi, live on site. They are not intrusive but they are extremely welcoming and both go out of their way to assist when required. Highly recommended.
This was our home base for a week in the Lake Como region and it was wonderful!
The house is spacious, immaculately clean, stocked with everything needed, and the view… my goodness! Just stunning. We enjoyed delicious meats, cheese, olives, artichokes and bread on the patio, overlooking the beautiful city of Lecco and Lake Como!
Elena is a wonderful host and responded to each of our messages before our arrival in a very timely manner. She left for us fresh bread, fruit, salami and a bottle of wine. So kind and very generous!
The train station is a short drive down the hill and perfect for a day trip to Milan.
The villa is as shown in the pictures… and we loved that the property is gated. Felt very safe and happy in our little piece of Italian Heaven!
I hope to return some day!

The villa matched the description exactly.
The villa was easy to find and upon arrival at the property we received a very friendly welcome. The villa is very spacious and has everthing you would want during a holiday. It is well maintained and was very clean and tidy.
Elena very kindly took us on a tour of Lecco so that we could see some of the main parts and to also see where various restaurants were located (something we had enquired about) and this helped us to get our bearings. There is plenty of tourist information available at the villa and if there is anything in particular that you want to do I suggest you let Elena know in advance so that she can get the information for you. The views from the villa, which is high up the hill from the centre of Lecco, were stunning. During our stay we visited Bellagio, Como and Milan during our stay. Excellent train service, make sure you get the train that goes to Milano Centrale, it’s fast! The cable car trip is well worh doing, the views from the top of the mountain are fantasic and the air is so clear. Nice little cafe at the bottom if you have to wait for you trip.

Thank you for your visit. You are so lovely. I 'm sorry I didn't find a group when you could play your violin. Good luck
Elena ist eine wunderbare Gastgeberin. Wir kennen sie und ihre schöne, traumhaft gelegene Villa schon aus vorherigen Aufenthalten und waren auch diesmal wieder begeistert! Wir genießen dort die Ruhe und das angenehme Ambiente der Villa. Es ist alles sehr unkompliziert, und wir kommen gerne wieder.
Abbiamo trascorso un soggiorno fantastico a Villa Helena! La casa è bellissima, molto spaziosa e confortevole. Tutto era pulito e ben attrezzato, con tutto il necessario per cucinare e sentirsi a casa. Grazie di cuore, speriamo di poter tornare presto!
Das Haus hat einen tollen Blick auf den Lago di Como, ist sehr gepflegt und vor allem die Gastgeberin sehr hilfsbereit und zuvorkommend. Vielen Dank an Elena und ihr Team für die Gastfreundlichkeit!
Die Lage des Hauses ist phantastisch, ein richtiger Traum bei Tag und mit den Lichtern der Nacht. Auch wegen der gepflegten Grünflächen und Pflanzen. Mein Highlight war der Hortensienbusch. Ebenso die Innenausstattung mit hochwertigen Schreinermöbeln und Einbauten hat uns begeistert. Alles war blitzsauber.Bei Fragen stand Elena uns sofort zur Seite, unaufdringlich und hilfreich.
Wir haben herrliche Weihnachtstage mit der Familie in dieser Villa verbracht. Die Gastgeberin ist überaus zuvorkommend und freundlich. Die Lage der Villa ist sehr reizvoll mit schönem Ausblick, und das Interieur sehr geschmackvoll.
