The house is situated in San Giovanni, a small and nice suburb, in front of the lake. There, you can find a restaurant, a church, a museum, a boutique and a grocery store, but for a better choice you can reach the centre of Bellagio, where there is all you need. Banks and chemists are also available in the surroundings, if you need. |
