Hey from Ashley

Member since December 2024 | 3,877 hits

Ash and Summer are excited to welcome you to their home. After many years of searching, we discovered an old, tired, neglected, and gray silk house on a hill, and now, following a complete renovation, it is ready to host guests. When not managing the bed and breakfast, Ash continues to lead the international charity – Adventure Aid UK, bringing many years of experience in assisting groups in remote areas of Asia, so you'll be in good hands by the lake! Summer still works as a lawyer while also assisting Ash, and both of them enjoy welcoming guests to the lake and helping you make the most of your vacation.

From our previous reviews, the main comment is undoubtedly the view. To fully appreciate this stunning panorama, however, one must be situated at a higher elevation than the lakeshore. Nevertheless, we are just a 25-minute walk from excellent bars and restaurants (5 minutes by car), and there is a small trattoria in the village. Almost all the eateries serve delicious pizzas and pasta, with lakeside bars offering fantastic spots for wine, meat, and cheese. Of course, we are also near the Grand Hotel Tremezzo, which features the ‘T Bar’ and ‘T Beach,’ perfect for special occasions.

The mountains are located behind us, and the lake is in front, providing numerous walking trails, including the Greenway, Monte Crocione, Capelli degli Alpini, San Martino, and the Sanctuary of Madonna del Soccorso. If you're in the mood for a hike, we can provide trekking poles—just ask.

From the lakeside in Tremezzo, you can catch the ferry to the city of Como and the famous lakeside villages of Bellagio, Menaggio, and Varenna. From Varenna, you can take the train to Milan or Tirano and then board the ‘Bernina Express’ to St. Moritz. Whether by foot, boat, train, or car, there's so much to do that one vacation simply won't be enough.

This has been by far the best place we have ever stayed. The rooms are immaculate, the location is perfect, and Ash and Summer are such fantastic hosts. Ash and Summer went out of their way to help us wherever. I stayed here for four nights with my partner and we loved waking up every single morning not only to the view of Lake Como, but also to the breakfast spread. Yum. This is perfect for anyone travelling to Lake Como. Thank you Ash and Summer for having us!

I had a fabulous week at this property. The views were amazing, and because it's positioned slightly up the hill and away from the lake, it is very peaceful. Eating breakfast each morning in the garden is surely the best start to the day. The hosts, Ash and Summer, were very attentive and were able to offer several suggestions for places to visit.

The Casa della Seta has four very cozy rooms (two of them with balconies) and is located in a very quiet little village above Lake Como. This four-day holiday will remain unforgettable! We are still completely thrilled about the incredibly wonderful time we spent there with the hosts and the other guests. Our time with the hosts Ash and Summer was unique! We have never experienced a guesthouse run with so much love and dedication. The two are very attentive without being intrusive or annoying. They clearly enjoy bringing joy to their guests. We will miss Summer's charming smile and lovable manner as well as Ash's wonderful cooking skills. There is a three-letter word that says it all: "WOW!". Many thanks to Summer and Ash.

We had a wonderful time with Summer and Ash. Here we started our road trip through Italy. The room is beautiful, gorgeous and has a nice balcony where we were immediately offered a drink. The casa is set back a bit from the road but Ash is happy to help carry the suitcases up. I liked that the hosts contacted us via WhatsApp about the arrival. He even booked a small restaurant for us where we ate very well. Villa del Balbianello is recommended: you can walk there. On our second (and only full) day we took the boat to Bellagio, Menaggio and Varenna. A one-day ticket is 17 euros. Ideal so you don't have to queue at every port. The casa has a small garden where you can have breakfast and also relax in the evenings. Summer and Ash are very helpful, interested and know the region well. It was fantastic in this old silk factory.

The answer from the host:
Dear Jacquelien, thank you for your lovely review in our guest book and here. We are glad you both had a lovely time here and everything was to your liking. As you say, we are on hand to help with luggage to reach this 230 year old house (built before cars were invented ;) ) tucked away in the old village. See you again soon we hope! Ash and Summer
