"The magnificent Villa Balbiano offers guests a rare opportunity to immerse in the architecture, art, light and drama of Lake Como. Flamboyant styling coupled with luxurious detail defines the Balbiano experience, while two hectares of manicured gardens offer countless attractive spaces from which to contemplate the arresting views. The estate offers perhaps a glimpse into the life of the former owner, the notorious Cardinal Durini, who occupied and expanded the villa during the late 18th century. A papal nuncio with a passion for the arts, his influence on the property remains very much in evidence today, including the Italianate gardens, with dramatic fountains and pensive sculptures, beautiful ceiling frescoes, and a world-class library, all contrasting intriguingly with the understated lines of the villa’s Renaissance façade."
