Our stay at Casa di Poritici fullfilled all our expectations and more. Mandello is a serene and quaint town with breathaking views of Lake Como and the spectacular Grigna mountains in the background. It is easy to get to by train, and the the apartment is a short walk from the station. It is sparkling clean, cozy and spacious. The hosts are exceptionally friendly and helpful and made us feel very welcome. They gave us much information of what to do: hiking trails on the hillside behind the town, ferries across the lake to nearby villages, taking the local train to Lecco where there is cablecar up the mountain. The restaurants they reccomended were very good! Eating breakfast under the arches of this historic house overlooking the lake was the highlight of our stay, So beautiful, it was almost surreal. We highly reccomend this apartment, and we hope to return in the near future!! The best airbnb place we have been to :)
Elizabeth 2016-10-09T00:00:00ZThe Noseda family is very nice and pleasant. We met the mother, daughters with great conversations. They are very warm and supportive. The unit is right on the water. It is very roomy. The town is quiet so we felt very relaxing walking in the town. The heat was on all night so we felt very comfortable inside in the late October. The place has a large kitchen and is very convenient. The apartment has very thing so we felt like home. I would definitely recommend people to stay there.
Jeff2015-11-02T00:00:00ZFirst I would like to say praise the communication prior to our visit. Everything was as precise as I could have hoped. Francesca was incredible, allowing us to arrive near midnight due to a train union strike in France and still helped make us feel welcome. Waking up to Mandello took our breath away! There is a reason why this place is on the promotional photos for the region, it is simply perfect. The smell of fresh jasmine from the windows, the sun kissed mountains across the water, the lake itself all seemed postcard perfect. We were planning to rest here following London and Paris and before traveling to Rome, what we found was a little slice of heaven. When asked of all of our travels, both of our children say that this is their favorite. Food, parks, shopping, grocery, train and water taxi all within a 5 minute walk made this quiet little reprieve the perfect break during our trip. And while we did get out by train to Varenna and ferry to Belagio, we all were happy to see Mandello when we returned. Don't expect a late night or a party crowd and you too won't be disappointed. Motorcycle buffs can also tour the Moto Guzzi museum and the alpine riders flock here for the weekend. The apartment itself was well apportioned, sofa bed for our children and queen for the bedroom, nice bath with tub, shower and washing machine. Full kitchen but we really only had coffee there, with so many trattorias nearby we simply couldn't stay in and the prices were unbelievably low. I have to agree with the family that this is my favorite part of the trip and again can't say enough good things about Francesca and Carla. This is definitely a place where we'll return to.
Larry2016-06-11T00:00:00ZWonderful place. No need for a car, it's an easy walk from the train station. Right on the lake, beautiful view. Quick walk to places to eat, and supermarket. The kitchen is well supplied if you want to make a meal to eat at home.
Margaret2016-10-09T00:00:00ZThe house was absolutely incredible. Myself and three friends were only able to stay one night but it was more than enough time to relax and enjoy the small town. We were suggested many places to go in the area to eat and to go out. Overall, the stay was beyond pleasant and we hope to return in the future!
Lauren2015-10-25T00:00:00ZThe apartment was well equipped with a washing machine and good kitchen. The cafe, just a short walk out the door was very convenient and the views over the lake were amazing! Mandello was a special place and Carla was helpful and welcoming upon check in. We enjoyed our stay.
Amanda2017-01-14T00:00:00ZGreat Hosts: Carla, Francesca, Micheala !!! We enjoyed our weekend in february. The appartment is nice, just 5 meters from the lake. The location is great. Mandello is pictoresque. We felt in love with Mandello. Definitly would like to come back. best regards. nn, CH
Niko2016-02-23T00:00:00ZFrancesca & Michela are fabulous hosts! From the moment you see their warm smiling faces, you feel like a house guest instead of a patron. The flat was spacious for our family of four. The well equipped kitchen was perfect for our breakfasts & pasta dinners, but I always enjoyed my morning cappacino & croissant at Costantin's. Mandello is a lovely lake town, with warm friendly locals. The flat is less than 10 minutes from the train station & a two minute walk to the ferry stop. Francesca has a multitude of brochures & written itinerary ideas. Michela checked in with us daily & even invited us to join her at the Como fireworks. Thank you Francesca & Michela for an unforgettable Lake Como holiday!

We arrived with the storm but we was warmly welcomed. The part of the house is independant with new floors and doors. Everything was clean and the kitchen is fully equiped. Charming hosts, very helpfull if you are looking for sightseeing places or restaurants. Nice place for a short stay like us or more longer.
François2016-07-05T00:00:00ZMorena and Piero were beyond welcoming. Piero met us late in the evening at the market so he could ride with us to show us the parking. They gave us a bottle of wine and helped us unload. The house could not be better stocked - I was very impressed with this! The location is perfect, and Madello del Lario is a perfectly dreamy town. Morena and Piero doted on our son and gave him gifts galore. They also let us borrow their pup for a nice, long walk along the water. I highly recommend this apartment for rent when visiting Lake Como.
Ginny2016-11-01T00:00:00ZMorena and Pietro were wonderful hosts who made this a special and memorable stay. The apartment is well equipped and very clean. It is just a 10 min walk from the station and the lake.
David2016-08-31T00:00:00ZMorena was such a lovely lady, she gave me a little tour of the town and recommended a restaurant for dinner. I've been lucky enough to stay at some lovely Airbnbs but she was by far the nicest host. Mandello del Lario is a cute little town perfect for those looking for something a little less 'touristy' and her flat was lovely and clean. I would definitely stay here again.
Rebecca2016-08-09T00:00:00ZMorena and Piero are absolutely charming. They took us to the lake and showed us the close necessary amenities such as the Moto Guzzi factory, supermarket and the best restaurant to eat at (with local food recommendations). I would highly recommend this apartment and will definitely be returning one day for a longer period. A very beautiful part of the world.
Caroline2016-10-05T00:00:00ZWe had such a lovely time staying at Morena's. From when she met us at the station, she was always there helping us see the best of Mandello and making our trip as smooth as possible - even coming to find us in a storm to take us back in the car from dinner - so kind! The little apartment was very cute, well equipped and perfect size for a couple. Lovely touches like coffee for the morning made it feel like home. I'd say Mandello is a good place to relax, it's small and there's a few restaurants and gorgeous spots to swim, but no partying but that wasn't an issue for us as we were happy to get some rest! Thank you Morena we hope we will be back ☺
Harriet2016-07-30T00:00:00ZOur stay was short but nice...Although we stayed for just one night, we liked the apartment a lot, which was very cozy and clean. Our communication with mrs Morena was easy, arrival informations were clear, and hosts were very helpful. We also liked the dog and the turtle which they own :) Would recommend this accommodation to everyone.
Mislav2016-09-20T00:00:00ZMandello del Lario is a beautiful town on the lake, a must visit! And my visit was so much more enjoyable staying here. Morena and her husband are simply adorable and they took care of me like their own son! They are gracious, funny, well travelled and open minded and they really made sure I had a good time in MDL. They were even happy to drive me around to nearby towns and show me around he city! Wonderful place and remarkable people!

Wonderful house in a wonderful place ! Dina and Paolo were both kind and paid lot of attention to our confort during our (too) short stay in Oliveto Lario. What a pleasure it was to share discussions on the lovely private beach, seeing the lake and the mountains. Thanks, Dina and Paolo, for sure, we will be back !
Alexandre2015-08-11T00:00:00ZThe location was great, just a little difficult to find. The neighborhood was not super touristy so it was nice. communication through email was the best way to communicate. 4 people in the downstairs room not super comfortable.
Paige2015-12-13T00:00:00ZThe place is really amazing, As you can see on the pictures. Great privacy! Room, bathroom and kitchen completely independent. I strongly recommend this place! Also, Paolo is very friendly and caring.
Andriza2016-05-31T00:00:00ZA wonderful place i highly recommand!! Paolo has such a beautiful house on the lake. The most : there is a private beach, well equiped with a kitchen, a bbq and deck chairs. Paolo and his family are so Nice, and very helpful for everything toi might need. This is the perfect place to chill and to enjoy the beautiful Como lake.
Lyse2015-07-28T00:00:00ZBy far the best place we stayed in Italy. We received a very warm welcome and our host was extremely kind. Our accommodation was homely and we had everything we needed, across the road we had use of the private beach where we sat out and enjoyed the views. All in all the service, views and room were spectacular. We highly recommend staying here.
Evan2015-09-30T00:00:00ZWe arrived by train from Milan and Paolo and his dad were kind enough to pick us (and our luggage) up from Leccho, abour a 25 minute drive from their place. They even helped us shop for groceries as their neighborhood is not very touristy. The house itself is situated on the right part of the inverted Y, as said, it is not very touristy, which suited us perfectly. It has a private beach with a beautiful view. Paolo and his dad were very nice and we would love to stay at their home again.
Absar2016-05-02T00:00:00ZThis place is idyllic and a perfect way to live the lake as close as possible. Thé private access to the beach is very confortable and thé water is so clear. The appartement is brand new and organised with taste. Paolo and peter are so Nice that it s just too good to be True ! The perfect place for those Who seek romantisme and peace. Thanks à lot guys !

We met Alessandra as a very nice person who gave us a warm welcome and provided us with useful information according to our interests. The apartment itself is part of an obviously new building that is situated in a quiet side street close to the old and quaint town centre. The interior of the apartment looks quite modern. It's really comfortable anyway and we found everything clean and intact. We were allowed to park our car in the building's own parking lot and therein in a separate locker. From Mandello various destinations are easily accessible. We liked to wander through town, to visit Varenna or Bellagio as well as to hike up a nearby mountain or to search our vertical limits climbing on well equipped crags north of Lecco. Altogether we had a great time and we would like to come back one day.
Joerg2015-10-28T00:00:00ZExcellent time spent in Mandello, in a perfect flat, very clean, well equipped and modern. Alessandra has been an excellent host, providing us with all the necessary tips to enjoy the best of the area. We could not expect more!
Pierre2015-09-22T00:00:00ZThe apartment was everything as advertised. Close to everything, very roomy and comfortable. Alessandra was absolutely amazing in looking after us. Picking us up from the station (even though it was only a few minutes walk :-)), and even giving us lift to Varenna as the trains were on strike. Would highly recommend. (For those adventurous types there are a lot of trails heading up the back of Mandello. I just used openmaps to get good maps of them)
Pete2016-05-27T00:00:00ZPerfect location and perfect hosts! Usually photos make places look bigger but this is actually a lot bigger than it looks. Alessandra was very helpful even before we got there and it was great to meet her daughter before we left, who weirdly prefers Bristol to Lake Como!! Thanks a lot guys, hopefully we will be back soon! x
Ryan2016-08-23T00:00:00ZPerfect! Great apartment which is close to the lake and it was very clean. Alessandra and her daughter are so nice and helpful. When we have arrived we got self-made biscuits from her grandmother... so delicious. We do very recommend this place.
Stefanie2016-05-31T00:00:00ZWe love the apartment! It is really modern, clean, and super comfortable. It is located in the best location in Mandello de lario, and the host is super nice. We love that it has its own parking garage too, so we dont have to worry about finding parking here. Alessandra, her daughter and her mother are really friendly, too! And we were welcomed with tasty cookies. Lago di Como is such a beautiful region in Italy, we hope we could come back again next time for a longer visit, and hoping to try the thermal bath that Martina recommended.
Maria Yacintha2016-11-19T00:00:00ZThe stay was excellent. The apartment is as described and has all necessary amenities, kitchen utensils, etc. Underground parking is great if you travel by car. Alessandra even gave us baked pastries during our arrival and kept in touch the entire time to make sure that we had everything that we needed to fully enjoy our stay in Mandello even recommending good places to eat when we requested them. Overall the apartment is very central and we would stay here again, as well as recommend it to others.
Matej2016-12-20T00:00:00ZWe had a great time staying in Mandello del Lario. Communication with Alessandra was easy and she was there to meet us when we arrived with her daughter. They recommended some places for us to visit nearby and provided plenty of information on things to see and do in the area which was great. The apartment was exactly how it looks in the photos, it was clean and comfortable and we really enjoyed our stay. The biscuits made by Alessandra's mother were a lovely touch and were also delicious! I would definitely recommend staying here if you get a chance.

We had a wonderful time in the apartment. Thank you Margherita and Marco. The garden is beautiful and terrific, everything was clean. It was also great value for our money. Thank you for the welcome cake, which was amazingly soft and delicious. In case, we are around again, we will come back. Best regards, Frank and Liza.
Liza2015-07-03T00:00:00ZThe place was perfect! Really great value, lovely clean new apartment with a beautiful private garden and an easy 10 minute walk to the lake. The owners Margherita and Marco, who live next door, were extremely friendly, respectful of our privacy, and incredibly generous. At the end of our 5 day stay, we consider them friends and were sad to say goodbye to them. I doubt we could have had better hosts. Highly recommended and we would definitely stay here again if we return to lake como.
Jeremy2015-07-11T00:00:00ZPerfect location for visiting Como lake. The host is very friendly and she went to train station to pick us up. She even prepared a delicious cake for us. The apartment is lovely and clean and comfortable. I'm sure I will be back again in summer.
Yang2017-01-04T00:00:00ZThe apartment is a great place to stay at the Lario! Nice interieur, great view to the Grigne Mountains and a lovely garden. Margherita is a very warm-hearted host; she brought us a delicious cake as a welcome surprise ;-) We'd love to come there again!
Arne2013-09-10T00:00:00ZWhat a lovely town, a lovely house and a lovely welcome. Margherita and Marco were great - friendly and welcoming (and the welcome cake was amazing!) The house was perfect, and is set in a quiet area of the town, but is within easy walking distance to the lake and shops. The kitchen is fully equipped, meaning we could have a home made meals that we ate in the lovely garden, with the sound of the stream at the back of the garden to accompany us! We took a boat trip to Bellagio, which was lovely, but we much preferred Mandello Del Lario. We'd recommend eating in the pizzeria near to the lake, and Il Gardinetto, also on the lake (and the gelateria a few doors down from the pizzeria!) and a visit to the Moto Guzzi museum is a must. Marco and Margherita's house is the perfect getaway, and we'd definitely stay again, and recommend it to anyone interested. Thank you for having us!
Jenny2014-10-06T00:00:00ZWe really enjoyed our stay here. For us, the large garden was a real treat as it provided endless entertainment for our two-year-old son, chasing butterflies and playing with Margherita's two adorable dogs. The apartment was spotless, and Margherita and Marco were really nice, thoughtful and accommodating, both via e-mail as in real life. A delicious cake was waiting for us on arrival, and they did everything to make our stay as enjoyable as possible. They're great people and awesome hosts. The apartment is a 2-minute walk from from the center of Mandello, which offers small bakeries, grocery shops and cafes. A 10-minute walk takes you to the lake, where you'll find a small pebble beach and children's playground. If you like cooking, you'll find the kitchen is really well equipped. On Mondays there's a local market near the lake, and you'll find a great little pasta shop tucked away along Via Alessandro Manzoni (near the railway crossing) that sells delicious handmade ravioli and lasagne. Recommended! Mandello is a small town and doesn't pull in the masses like nearby Bellagio and Varenna, both of which are easily reached from Mandello by car of boat. But we liked our stay away from the crowds, and found Mandello a great place to explore the fascinating area around Lago di Como. Great value for money, and highly recommended!
Nick, Leonie, Stijn & Veerle2014-08-02T00:00:00ZWe had a wonderful stay in Mandello del Lario. The apartment was modern, clean and extremely well equipped. The kitchen can be used to cook all of your meals - everything you could need is there! The welcome cake was delicious. The apartment is in a great location, 2 min walk to the patisserie and supermarket, and a 10 min walk to the lake. There's also some lovely restaurants nearby. I would recommend using a car to get around the lake - there's free parking on the road outside the apartment. We would love to come and stay again, we had a fantastic few days!
Victoria2015-08-10T00:00:00ZGreat apartment, great hosts and handy location. Very quiet and Super modern. The hosts exceeded all expectations by helping me shop, suggesting tours and even printing put a train timetable for me. I recommend this place to anyone, I had a fantastic experience.

We loved everything about our stay at Casa Sant'Anna. It's a great base for exploring Lake Como - close to Bellagio and lots of great walks in the area, and right on a nice stretch of beach at Onno. The apartment was pristine and had everything we needed. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the place, and Luigi is a fantastic host who always replies quickly. A great place for a Lake Como break.
Katy2016-07-27T00:00:00ZLuigi and his son were great hosts. He warmly welcomed us in this beautiful house located right on the lakeside. We were advised about places to visit. The flat in the house is really well renovated, with beautiful materials and furnitures, and fully furnished. It has a balcony and a garden, where the car can be parked. The beach is 10 meters away from the house. The location is ideal and very central to visit the lake region, Milano, Bergamo... I would definitely recommend this place, everything was perfect.
Benoit 2016-08-21T00:00:00ZLuigi's place in Onno is fantastic. the beach just across the road, close to bellagio. its the perfect place to discover lake como
Frank2016-08-07T00:00:00ZAccueil très sympathique par Luigi et son fils. Appartement de qualité à proximité du lac, avec un parking privé. Très bon service de linge durant nos 14 jours de vacances. Excellent contact avec Luigi et sa famille pendant notre séjour. Très belle région. Nous conseillerons à nos amis cette région et cette adresse.
patrick2016-09-30T00:00:00ZBel appartement neuf et calme dans une belle maison sur le lac de Côme. Gentillesse du propriétaire, petit cadeau de bienvenue.Appartement entièrement neuf, fait avec de très beaux matériaux.Très bien équipé. Propriétaire très disponible si besoin.

L'appartement est très bien situé, très propre et nous y avons trouvé tout ce dont nous avions besoin. L'accès à la plage se trouve devant la maison et la vue sur les montagnes est à couper le souffle. Un endroit à retenir pour passer un séjour mémorable au lac de Côme.
David2016-08-30T00:00:00ZНет слов описать наши впечатления. Luigi, Laura i Francesco настолько замечательная семья. Очень приветлевые и отзывчивые люди. По любому вопросу всегда рады помочь и дать совет. Мы провели в их доме на берегу Комо 3 фантастических дня. Апартаменты в идеальном состоянии, новый ремонт, очень чисто, чувствуешь себя как дома. Расположение очень хорошее, до пляжа 1 минута, вода кристально чистая, можно купаться и загорать. Прекрасная терасса с видом на озеро и горы, где мы с удовольствием проводили вечера. Фотографии полностью соответствуют реальности, я бы даже сказала, что реальность лучше. ))) Всегда рада возвращаться на озеро Комо и обязательно вернусь в этот дом. Очень рекомендую. There are no words to describe our experience. Luigi, Laura i Francesco such a wonderful family. Very friendly, people of heart. Always happy to help and give advice. We spent in their house 3 fantastic days. Apartment in perfect condition, newly renovated, very clean, feels like at home. The location is very good, the beach is 1 minute, the water is crystal clear, you can swim and take sunbathe. A lovely terrace with lake and mountains view, where we spent evenings with pleasure. Photos fully correspond with reality, I would even say that the reality is better. ))) Always happy come back to Lake Como and will definitely come back to this house. Highly recommend. Thank you very much Luigi, Laura i Francesco.

The place is a rustic large one br + bath with a great back yard and incredibile view of lake and mountains. Make sure to bring outdoor clothes and have the host set up the place for your arrival with chairs, pull out bed.... for an amazing outdoor weekend.
rudi2016-03-15T00:00:00ZThe host provided us with very clear instructions, so it was easy to find a cottage and everything in it. The cottage is very cosy, clean and tasteful and even more amazing is yard by the cottage and a view from it. We had magical evenings siting on the private dock by the lake, admiring view of the lake and mountains in front of us. It's a fantastic place to spend your holiday. When you get there, you don't want to leave.
Alma2016-06-30T00:00:00ZFabio & Laura gave us all the necessary instructions to do a smooth checkin prior to our arrival. The Como Lakeside Cottage is the best place to have an awesome view of Lake Como. The cottage is well equipped with all the necessary stuff. We really felt as we were at home. Few points than can be taken into consideration to be the best of the best: a WiFi connection, a good TV and a good shower. Thank you Fabio and Laura for giving us the opportunity to share this lovely place with me and my family. We had a nice time.
Ayesh2016-12-26T00:00:00ZJust want to thank you for the trouble free stay in your villa on the lake. Everything was fine,the house was clean and had everything we needed and the instructions for the keys and appliances were clear and complete. It was a pleasure to sit in the private garden and listen to the lake gently lapping onto the shore. Top marks for giving us a hassle free ,relaxing break in a beautiful setting .Thank you,we hope to return soon. Geraldine Beverley.

Without the presence of the owner of the house we easily understood.

If you are thinking of visiting Lake Como, this is definitely the place to stay! Photos don't show how beautiful the cottage really is. It is truly a gem. Antonio is an amazing host. To say he's helpful and thoughtful would be complete understatement. He was always willing to give us a ride as we didn't have a car and was there for us when we needed help. The town of Mandello del Lario is beautiful and people are really friendly. It's a perfect place to stay if you look for authentic holiday experience. Massive thank you to Kikera Tobacco and coffee staff, you guys rock! And to the guy at Eni petrol station for putting the bike seat down for us. And to the owners of Colombo Massimo bar for free food!
Izabela2016-09-17T00:00:00ZThe house is perfect for staying at the como lake! The location is great, quiet and in walking distance of the centre of the town. The house is great! It has everything you need and the view at the lake is amazing! And so the sunbathing platform at the lake in front of the house also is. Antonio is very helpful. He picked us up from the train station and gave us an umbrella because it was going to be a rainy day, very thoughtfull! We would totally recommend this place!
Mai2016-09-25T00:00:00ZThis place is unbelievable beautiful! In nice, quiet location with huge terrace right on the lake where you can sit and admire breathtaking views over the lake and mountains - absolutely fantastic! Apartment is comfortable,clean and contains everything you need including two bikes which are just perfect to get around the town. Antonio is a warm and welcoming person,very friendly and helpful - a five star airbnb host! Thank you so much for sharing your lovely place! We had wonderful time & did not want to leave... Grazie, grazie mille!!! Kasia&Kristof
Kasia 2016-06-19T00:00:00ZMy husband and I scheduled a last minute getaway to lake como and wanted to find a place right on the lake so we could jump in the beautiful clear water when ever we felt like it. If you are looking for a glass box with a private dock looking over the lake and through the trees then this is the place for you. House is well equipped and Antonio is very helpful. We arrived to find a bottle of prosecco, cheese, olives and a lovely happy anniversary card. Kitchen, shower and house is very comfortable. Highly recommend for a couple looking for privacy and adventure!
Eloise2016-06-18T00:00:00ZNous avons passé une semaine paradisiaque! l'endroit est magnifique, le cottage , entièrement vitré, conçu par la fille d'Antonio qui est architecte, est superbe! l'endroit est très calme, personne ne vous voit et vous pouvez vous baigner à partir du ponton privé. Antonio est adorable.A notre arrivée, il nous a offert une bouteille de vin italien et tout était prévu pour que nous puissions dîner au cottage (nous sommes arrivés tard et cela nous a vraiment bien arrangé!). Antonio est une personne charmante, toujours prête à répondre à nos questions et à s'inquiéter du bien-être de ses hôtes. Ce fut une expérience formidable, loin du bruit de la ville . Parfait pour la méditation! Nous reviendrons ! merci Antonio !
Anne2016-08-08T00:00:00ZNous avons été accueillis de manière très très chaleureuse avec mon compagnon. Les hôtes sont très gentils et totalement à l'écoute du moindre problème ou de la moindre infos! En plus la mise à disposition de deux vélos permet un petit tour dans Mandello del Lario, charmant! Les photos sur le site sont totalement réalistes, il s'agit bien d'un petit paradis perché sur le lac. Nous avons également aimé ce côté du lac qui nous a paru un peu plus sauvage que l'autre rive, une vraie sensation de dépaysement et de ressource pour les parisiens que nous sommes!

We've have very much enjoyed our holiday in Villino Lario! Alvaro is a very kind person and made us feel at home straight away. The house has everything you need. There is a private outdoor space in the front and in the back. The veranda in the back looks out over the shared garden where Alvaro put a swing and played football with our son. Very close to the appartment there are some nice quiet beaches. Mandello is a nice town and has boat and train connections to other towns around the lake. Thanks again Alvaro!
Jetze2016-10-06T00:00:00ZWe had a wonderful stay at Alvaro's home. He made us feel part of his family, not just random people staying at his house. He went out of his way to make us feel welcomed. The house was equipped with everything you need for everyday, very clean, nice, and accommodating. Excellent! Thank you, Alvaro.
Aricia2016-07-14T00:00:00ZGreat stay at Alvaro's place. I can really recommend the place. Alvaro was always very helpful. We have enjoyed it very much. Trank you Alvaro!
Michael2016-06-16T00:00:00ZAlvaro was a most helpful and friendly host, with recommendations of walks and places to visit. The apartment was spacious and equipped to a very high standard and is situated only about ten minutes walk from the old centre of Mandello. We had a fantastic four days in Villino Lario and would strongly recommend it as a lovely base for exploring this side of the lake. A particular feature is the outdoor terrace, sadly not warm enough for us to use during our visit in late October but would be great in the warmer months. There's also a view of the lake from the front porch. The off road parking is a real benefit: it's useful to have a car for supermarket visits and exploring further afield.
Elizabeth2016-11-01T00:00:00ZThe property is very close to the Lake and there is a small beach close by. We arrived too early which was no problem at all. From the beginning, we felt very welcome. The internet was very poor, but the moment I informed Alvaro, he sorted it out through a booster. The kitchen and the property was well kitted out. I would highly recommend the property and Alvaro as host.
Brigitte2016-08-15T00:00:00ZDès notre arrivée Alvaro a été très accueillant, chaleureux et prévenant (boissons fraiches, et produits de premières nécessité à notre disposition). Logeant au-dessus de l'hébergement, nous nous sommes sentis chez nous, Alvaro étant discret et restant disponible. Il connait très bien la région et les activités à faire (montagne, lacs et évènements). Si vous êtes passionné de voyages, lui aussi ! Dommage que notre anglais ait été si limité ! L'hébergement est bien situé, à 5 mn à pied du cœur de la ville de Mandello et à proximité directe du lac. De petites plages où l'on peut se baigner sont proches. Nous avons été enchanté et avons regretté de partir, malgré un séjour de plus de deux semaines... Il n'est pas impossible que nous revenions!
Jean-François2016-08-27T00:00:00ZUnser Comersee Urlaub war ein großes Vergnügen. Vor allem weil wir die Unterkunft genauso wie auf den Bilder und der Beschreibung vorgefunden haben. Super sauber, sehr gepflegt und total gemütlich. Unser Gastgeber Alvaro hat uns einen herzlichen Empfang bereitet und uns bei Fragen über die Gegend oder bei unseren Planung für Ausflüge sehr geholfen. Alles in allem ein super schöner und gelungener Urlaub. Wir würden jeder Zeit wieder kommen und können "Villino Lario" nur empfehlen. Vielen vielen Dank für die nette und liebevolle Gastfreundschaft. Monika und Martin
Monika2016-05-11T00:00:00ZKoimme itsemme erittäin tervetulleeksi ja hyvin vastaanotetuiksi. Saimme kaiken tarvitsemamme informaation ja asiointi sujui englanniksi oikein mainiosti. Asunto oli viihtyisä ja erittäin siisti ja sijaistsi hyvällä paikalla. Thanks Alvaro, we felt us very wellcome and welltreated. Our host Alvaro spoke good English and gave us useful information for the questions we had. The apartment was very cozy, clean and well located. We enjoyed our staying a lot. Do recommend if looking for a place to stay next to the lake Como.

Despite the fact that we arrived very late we were welcomed nicely. We had a short but pleasant stay. Everything was very clean and nice. Breakfast was very good. Thanks a lot
Benedicte2015-07-22T00:00:00ZCristina is a wonderful host who made us feel welcome at her place. If you dream on vacation on Lake Como far from the tourist crowd, it is the perfect place to be. The location is very convenient as you can reach it by train and the beach is just 5 min walk. The room was clean and fully equipped. And, I cannot but mention that a chocolate brownie for breakfast was just delicious!
Maria2016-07-12T00:00:00ZAntonio and Christina are the sweetest people and would recommend paying their BnB a visit when going through. They have a wonderful home, with stunning views of one of my favorite parts of Italy. Lake Como has wonderful vibes, the people are fantastic, and I want to move there every time I visit. The place is immaculately maintained and cleaned, and it felt exactly like home. Christina makes the best breakfast too :) Grazie!
Nick2014-05-30T00:00:00ZA very nice, clean and beutiful b&b. The hosts are very nice and helpful. אחלה מקום, על אגם קומו בעיירה שקטה ונחמדה.
Axel2015-10-22T00:00:00ZVery nice stay in a very beautiful place. The room and the B&B was awesome : we had an incredible view on the lake, a lot of space in the room, a delicious breakfast... Many thanks Cristina for your welcoming, your advices and kindness, it was a delight !
Lea2015-05-21T00:00:00Zwe enjoyed our first days of summer in this beautiful well kept home. it is in a great location. walking distance to water. great scenery. near a boat ferry stop, which is neat way to tour around the lake. cristina was very helpful and kind. we are grateful for the time spent here.
Ashley2015-06-11T00:00:00ZIt was a perfect place for visiting Como lake. There was a beautiful sight for watching Como lake about 5 minutes distance. And the host was so kind and nice that she took me to the train station when there were so much rain. I wanna visit here once again.
Heesung2016-07-22T00:00:00ZWe had an amazing time in B&B La Colombine. Cristina and Antonio are very welcoming and give us good advice to dsicover the lovely como region by boat on the lake and by feet up the mountain.

Our vacation was great! Betty met us at the station and told about the city, and also gave some of the products that we can cook. We are very grateful for such a nice apartment! Betty took us in Lecco, and gave an umbrella that helped us in bad weather! Thank you very much for everything! highly recommend this apartment!
Aleksandra2015-09-27T00:00:00ZElisabetta is a really lovely lady. She made us feel really welcome. She picked us up from the train station and told us all we need to know about transport! The flat was well equipped and situated on a lovely part of the lake and is very comfortable. Although you will need to catch trains to other parts of the lake to get to nice restaurants and more touristy towns etc. But the trains are cheap!
Lossy2016-04-14T00:00:00ZWe had a wonderful experience in Mandello! Elisabetta is very friendly and smily. The apartment is clean, large and close to everything. The lake and the villages all around are so nice. Such a sweet place! We definitely recommend it!
Polina 2015-09-10T00:00:00ZBetty's house was great! It was a short ten min walk to the center of town. Another short walk to the lake. Betty is very helpful and informative. She stays with you for a little bit and shows you a map and all the important things you need to know, which was fantastic. There is a small market right down the street and a bar in the same driveway. The bar was great and had very nice owners. I would highly recommend a stay at Betty's if you are visiting Mandela del lario!
Chad2016-11-07T00:00:00ZWe absolutely LOVED our stay at Betty's apartment! It was in a wonderful location close to the lake and lots of nice restaurants in a beautiful little neighborhood. We wish we booked a longer stay! Betty was so nice and left us with tea, coffee, water, juice and pastries and gave us lots of suggestions of things to do, it felt like a hotel! Thanks Betty for a wonderful stay!
Nikki2015-08-25T00:00:00ZBetty was a superstar host, and the apartment was perfect! Great natural light, very clean, bikes to ride downtown, and plenty of snacks for breakfast :) Very quick to respond to any messages, which was comforting. She provided maps, local food suggestions, and activities to do. She also picked us up from the train station upon arrival, and dropped us off after checkout! Mandello was an excellent choice to enjoy Lake Como, and we would hope to stay with Betty again if we have the chance!
Reema2016-05-24T00:00:00ZHad a lovely time in lake como! Elisabetta was really friendly and kindly took us from and to the train station on check in and out days! Would recommend

The apartment was really nice and spacious, we immediately felt like home. The kitchen is perfectly equipped, everything you need is available. Nice little beach just across the street. Morena is a reliable and very nice host.
Mad2016-09-14T00:00:00ZMorena and her brother Max were very friendly and easy going. The flat was spacious with everything you'd expect. The flat had free, easy parking right across the street and was only a short drive to the major towns. There's a cash machine, a little shop, and a pharmacy within a two minute walk. Morena leaves you with a detailed guide to find anything and everything you may want to do or eat whilst in Lake Como, making the stay easy and relaxing. Lastly, it's a 2 minute walk to the waterfront, where there are benches and a small beach.
Evan2016-06-30T00:00:00ZWe spent a very nice time nearby Como Lake. The Morena's flat is well equipped and cosy located by the main road. The host is a very nice person. For the first day of our stay she left us some food for breakfast. There is a small, peaceful beach to rest 100 m from the house. In the Vassena there is not so much to do, so the best way to have some entertainment is to visit some other towns like Bellagio, Varenna, etc. You can do it travelling by bus, but if You would like to stay in these places till the evening, there is a need to take a taxi to get back home, so the best way is to have own or rented car. You can also rent a scooter or bicycle in Bellagio, but it's very expensive comparing this to renting a car.
Maciej2016-06-01T00:00:00ZWe were very well welcomed by Morena. The apartment is near the shore and the lake, and very well situated with all commodities and places to see around. The apartment is very comfortable.
Lionel2016-07-31T00:00:00ZBel et pratique appartement situé près de Lecco, idéal pour visiter les lacs et le reste de la région (Milan, Bergame...). Très bon séjour, chaleureusement recommandé !
Martin2016-05-06T00:00:00ZEs war ein sehr schöner Aufenthalt. Morena hat uns herzlich willkommen geheißen und die Wohnung ist sehr hübsch. Die Küche ist super ausgestattet. Das Schlafzimmer geht nach hinten raus und ist deshalb total ruhig. WiFi konnten wir unkompliziert über das Büro in der Nachbarschaft erhalten. Gerne kommen wir wieder.
Heike 2016-06-18T00:00:00ZSehr schönes, liebevoll eingerichtetes Apartment in malerischer Gegend inklusive Seeblick. Super ausgestattete Küche, gemütliches Bett und kleines, süßes Badezimmer. Morena´s Mann gab uns bei Ankunft noch sehr nette Tips für die Umgebung (Restaurant, Bars,..) Leider kein Wifi im Haus, man darf aber gerne das Wifi ihres Office mitbenutzen (zwei Häuser weiter).
Frauke2016-05-10T00:00:00ZSuper séjour. Excellent accueil de Morena et Fabricio. L'appartement est très agréable, bien équipé et situé à deux pas du lac et des commodités.

Our stay at Ca Rocca was great! Fabrizio was really excellent with contact leading up to our stay and he met us at the gate even though we arrived by taxi after dark. The apartment was clean and comfortable and Fabrizio even left us some breakfast supplies for the morning which was greatly appreciated by our children. The view from the balcony, main bedroom and main window is simply breathtaking of the lake and mountains. It was easy to catch a bus or ferry to different places and the local swimming beach was a favourite too. The road noise was quite loud at times in the day but the Italian formula one was on in Monza when we were there so that could be the reason. No noise during the night for sleeping. For meals out, we travelled to other towns, Bellagio & Mandello. A lovely place to stay.
Jill2016-09-07T00:00:00ZThe apartment is very comfortable and cozy with a great view of the lake and mountains!! It has everything needed! The location is also perfect with a minimarket and some restaurants nearby! Fabrizio was very friendly, kind and helpful! He is a perfect host! He met us with a good bottle of wine that's really pleasant! So we had a wonderful stay at Fabrizio's. Higly recommended!
Oleg2016-10-03T00:00:00ZFabrizio welcomed us to his great apartment with wine and chocolates which gave our Easter holiday a great start. Prior to our arrival, he was responsive to messages and helpful. When we arrived, he provided information about local restaurants and travel that was very helpful. We really enjoyed our stay (there were 5 of us) at the apartment and especially enjoyed the view from the balcony and the proximity to Bellagio and other tourist hot spots. Overall, a great stay that I would highly recommend for small families or groups! Thanks for everything Fabrizio!
Megan2016-04-03T00:00:00ZA good apartment: with a great view, near to a small beach and a friendly host.
Erik2013-08-15T00:00:00ZWonderful location with beautiful view. We loved the house and Fabrizio was a great host.
Cindy2014-06-06T00:00:00ZFour of us stayed at this amazing lake facing apartment during our trip to the Italian Lakeside. The house is just a 10-15 drive to Bellagio, which is well connected. Fabrizio was super friendly & welcomed us with a wine bottle and ensured we had milk, juice and snacks for breakfast the next day. I would definitely recommend this large and cosy apartment to everyone!
Devajyoti2016-06-09T00:00:00ZThis apartment was exactly as described. Fabrizio was a great host & welcomed personally with a bottle of wine, juice & answers to all of our questions. The things we loved: very clean apartment, good beds, magnificent view over lake Como, closely located to beautiful village Bellagio & and the restaurant at the nearby camping. Only drawback for us was that the little village doesn't have a restaurant within walking distance & that the nearby beaches were rather dirty. If you don't mind taking the car for a few minutes, this is certainly not a setback.
Gunter2016-08-16T00:00:00ZExcellent apartment right on Lake Como. Very clean and well presented. Fabrizio was very obliging in getting the keys to us as we changed our arrival time a few times! Fabrizio was lovely. Highly recommended!

Good appartment in a small village arround Como lake. The road to Bellagio is amazing with nice point of view. Appartment and accommodations were as expected. You can easily park your car as Silvana open her garage !!
Sonia2016-08-11T00:00:00ZThanks Silvana, you're very friendly and very nice person. Apartments are very clean and cozy, very nice location in the very beautiful place. Ideal place for calm vacations
Elena2015-07-29T00:00:00ZHi everyone we stayed there for 8 days and that was our most fantastic trip ever . The apartment is on a prime location just near the lecco and como lake very famous for their natural beauty , it's perfectly suits for a couple very nice and peaceful environments to live in . Silvana and her family give their best they could. She is really very kind lady and she is so helpful and her husband is also a gentle man and very cute coz he can't speak English but still he tries his best to help . Overall very awesome place go live coz one can enjoy the leisure of own food cooked in kitchen or the pizzeria is just five minutes walk . At the end once again thanks Sylana you made our trip unforgettable and stay blessed .
Meesam2016-09-26T00:00:00ZSilvana was waiting for us and had a private garage for us to park the car in which was fantastic. The room was comfortable and warm. Great place to stay!
Luke2016-04-20T00:00:00ZStay was good. Silvana was very nice. We drove from Milan and she was very helpful with directions on how to get to the place and even had a garage for us to park in. The place was nice but was really cold and the heater didn't work very well to heat the space up. We slept in out sweater and sweat pants. She gave us a wifi password but we could not get a connection. Phones/computer wouldn't even pick up signal. Other then that, it was a nice stay and experience.
dylan2015-11-06T00:00:00ZWe enjoyed the stay at Silvana's apartment. It is clean and looks like in the pictures. Location is beautiful, really close to the Como Lake. Wifi was not working very good but that was not so important for us!
Lara2015-08-24T00:00:00ZThis was a fantastic stay in Valbrona. I loved every minute. The apartment is like what we would call a "granny flat". It is small and compact, but perfectly equipped, very clean and modern. It is adjacent to Silvana's own home, and homes of other family members. You enter the property through the main gate to Silvana's home. The stairs in the picture leads to an apartment where a lady lives, but only her balcony extends over the downstairs apartment. Silvana was very helpful and kind and I would definitely stay there again or recommend it. All the family checked that everything was going okay, and asked if there was anything they could do. As I didn't have car the first week, Silvana spontaneously provided a bike for me to borrow, which was lovely, and I really enjoyed cycling around. The location is about 5k from the edge of Lake Como - down a steep, corkscrew hill which took me about 15 minutes to cycle down and 50 to cycle up! The walks in the surrounding mountains accessible within 2 minutes from the apartment are stunning. The local little 2 star hotel is a lovely too - very friendly. The bakery, bar, small supermarket, church, are all a few minutes away. I spent a week on foot and a week with a car. You definitely need a car to get to the lake and around and to Asso for a bigger supermarket, but I really enjoyed my walks and relaxing time around the village itself. You can get a train from Asso to Milan and other places. I went to the Expo one day, which was great. The whole area is so very beautiful. I could spend hours looking at the mountains and the green forests. And there are lovely swimming spots at the lake not far away. A perfect holiday - thanks.
tara2015-09-01T00:00:00ZWe had a lovely stay at Silvana's place. The house was very clean and had everything we needed.

I stayed at Tower of Barbarossa with my mom, brother, and grandmother for 2 nights and we had an amazing time. Carola and her family were all so welcoming from the minute we got there. The B&B is located in a small town in the hills of Lake Como. Words can't even begin to describe what a great time my family had during our 2 day stay. We left Lake Como eager to come back and stay with our wonderful hosts again. We opted to eat both nights at the restaurant connected to the B&B and the food was exceptional both times. This is truly a family run establishment and I would recommend any friends or family planning a trip to Lake Como to stay here!
Leila2012-06-27T00:00:00ZAwesome! Everyone was so hospitable and warm. We felt right at home. The food was amazing every meal, and a total value! Recommend whole heartedly ❤
Candace2016-09-18T00:00:00ZThe warmth, enthusiasm and helpfulness of the hosts made our stay delightful. The accommodations lovely, spotless and the bathroom exceptional. The food at their restaurant was some the best, if not the best we've ever eaten. And Mandello del Lario is a beautiful town.
Nancy 2014-10-18T00:00:00ZIt was so wonderful to stay at Carola. The B&B is so clean and nice. Carola and her family are great hosts. She made us feel very welcome! We will defiantly come back here when we are older. See you in the future. Thank you so much for the great holiday!
Stephanie2015-07-17T00:00:00ZOur time at the Tower of Barbarossa B&B was fantastic! We stayed for two nights, and very much enjoyed our quaint yet well appointed room. The breakfast put on by Carola and her mother was also incredible! The B&B is perfectly situated to explore the Lake Como area, and well suited to those with cars with easy parking close by. We certainly plan to stay here again when we are back in the area!
Dan2016-04-28T00:00:00ZThis was the absolute highlight of our trip so far! We are a family of 6 (four teenagers aged 14, 15, 16 and 17) and we absolutely LOVED Carola's and Juliana's wonderful experience! The facility was practically brand new, and the location and was stunning, very beautiful. The tower itself was built in 1156 and we wish we hadn't waited until the last morning to climb to the top! The truth is that the facility is very spacious and newly renovated inside a true antiquity; the housekeeping and upkeep was 5-star and Carola's and Juliana's restaurant was outstanding-- we ate there 2 evenings out of a 3 night stay after popular vote demanded another visit! The best part of the visit was Carola's and Juliana's hospitality-- they went out of their way with extras and offers of rides and Carola even drove us to Lecco the last day when the trains all were cancelled without notice because of a countrywide strike. AN ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL and TERRIFIC PLACE. Exactly as advertised, and more.
Kale2014-07-27T00:00:00ZOn arrival we were a little apprehensive but when we saw the room and met carola and her mum we knew we had made the right choice, we drove down to the front for the afternoon and then came back for our evening meal at their restaurant, that was wonderful and I highly recommend anyone to go there, the food was fantastic! And the bar is a great place to have a drink and a chat, breakfast was lovely plenty on offer, many thanks Alison and Jim
Alison2016-09-18T00:00:00ZThis was actually the first time that we used airbnb, what a great place to start! We couldn't have enjoyed our stay anymore than we did. Corola and her family were very welcoming and made us feel right at home. We ate dinner one night at the restaurant it was wonderful and the breakfast each morning were awesome also. Gabriela would drive us to and from the train station each day and was always such a pleasure to talk to you. We will definitely be back the next time we visit the Lake Como area!

Our family very much enjoyed our stay in Barni and at Elisabetta's apartment. Everything was provided to a high standard, and Elisabetta was the perfect host - providing a lot of information when we arrived, then leaving us to our privacy. She also arranged a table for us at a local restaurant upon arrival. Our visiting grandparents from New Zealand particularly enjoyed spending time in Barni, as it is so quiet and an authentic Italian experience. Our day trip on the ferry to Varenna was also a family highlight. Many thanks for allowing us to stay in your lovely apartment Elisabetta. We miss Italy already!
Rachael2015-07-24T00:00:00ZWe had a very pleasant stay at Elisabetta 's house . The view is beautiful , the location ideal for lake Como and the wellcome very friendly . Elisabeth was very helpful in giving us good indications to enjoy our stay .
marc2016-08-09T00:00:00ZElisabetta was an absolutely wonderful host! Very shortly after we reserved the home she was in contact with us. She very promptly answered all of our questions and provided numerous recommendations for our itinerary. We had no problems keeping in contact via the AirBnB messages and via (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN). Our children loved being able to play in the yard when we returned from our travels each day. I highly recommend this location if you want the experience of a real non-tourist Italian village. It is very close to Bellagio and several other great locations. A perfect location for 2 families traveling together or one large family. Our group was 4 adults and 5 children and everything was perfect for our group. I can't say enough great things about the property and the host. We will definitely think about returning in the future!
Chuck2016-09-15T00:00:00ZI had a great time staying at Elisabetta's home. The space was big enough for 4 adults and three kids, and everything was very clean and comfortable. The location is perfect for exploring the area, and even though we were only there for a short time, we were able to see many of the local highlights. Elisabetta's local knowledge helped greatly in planning our day, from what to see/ do to the best spots to eat.
James2015-10-03T00:00:00ZGreat host. Greeted us with care and attention, shared all local info, gave good suggestions based on our interests. The taverna itself is very clean with comfy beds and pleasant linens. The location is very quiet in a sleepy town. Walking distance to a couple local shops and restaurant. Kitchen area is a bit small and could use better quality pots and pans (host is already aware) but everything is very functional. We enjoyed a large dining area and large table. Getting places like Bellagio will take some time (consult (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) maps) and the roads are windy so be prepared to do some driving around. The good thing is that overall, the location is pretty good for going into different directions. The host lives upstairs (separate entrance) so you won't have complete privacy but we didn't have any real need for it so I can not complain about it. The good part she's always around if you need anything. So 5 stars it is.
Tadas2015-06-25T00:00:00ZThe perfect place to visit Como Lake ! Elisabetta's house is very clean, well equiped and the bed are confortable. It's situated in a small village in the mountain where there isn't a lot to do but it's very easy to reach the mains interests of the lake. And Elisabetta is the perfect host ! She's very warmful, helpful and organised. She explain us everything about Como lake, where to go, things you can't miss, non-touristic adress...
Morgane2015-09-14T00:00:00ZElisabetta and her Familiy are a very kindly people. With their suggestions we passed a very good time in barni and the area of como. Also the accommodation was proper and well cleaned up. I suggest this house to every family because of the calm ambiance and nature friendly area.
Babak2016-07-23T00:00:00ZElisabetta was an amazing host, and the house was exactly what we were looking for. The house was recently updated and is very clean, modern, and comfortable, not to mention in a beautiful setting. Elisabetta communicated with us ahead of time to have everything we needed - and more available for us when we arrived. She welcomed us and provided us with great ideas and lots of information on how to get the best out of our stay in the area. We only wish we could have stayed longer!

We stayed in Maria Pia and Daniele's lovely house for a week while visiting family in Mandello del Lario. The house is located in one my favourite areas in the town where there are mazes of narrow little streets that open into a beautiful square and church. Maria and Danielle provided everything we needed in the house and we really enjoyed our stay. The house was very clean. The kitchen and living area is perfect and the downstairs section with bedroom and bathroom was very comfortable. I couldn't recommend it highly enough and will certainly be hoping to stay again when I visit.
Aaron2016-05-06T00:00:00ZMaria and Daniel's little cottage was a very nice place to stay in! At our arrival we have been even talked through where to go shopping and what is the highlights of the area. They were very nice hosts! The house itself spacious enough for a couple and it has everything you would need to feel comfy. The area is without a car access, which makes it even better in the sense that you are not disturbed at all by the hum of the traffic! Saying that the parking is still not a problem, because there are plenty of possibility to park your motor for free. If you are up to hiking and/or leisure holiday in the heart of Laqo di Como this place is the one to book! :-)
Vojtech2016-03-14T00:00:00Zeverything was perfect! the appartment is charming, it is in an old building. it is very clean and comfy. it seems that the neighbourhood is one of the best in the town, because it consists mostly of old houses. however, a spermarket is close as well as a restaurant. hosts are really nice and ready to help you in case of any problems. they also have a lot of maps of the area, and give us suggestions where to go and what to see. Maria Pia and Danielle, thanks a lot! I definitely recommend it to everyone!
Anastasia2016-11-12T00:00:00ZReally nice place to stay, good starting point for hiking as well as suntanning on the beach. The apartment absolutely worth recommending.
Przemek2016-06-26T00:00:00ZCiao Maria Pia e Daniele! We spent wonderful days in your cosy apartment. Evering was fine. Thanks again for your warm welcome and your hospitality. All the best! Cari saluti! Martin e Elke
Martin & Elke2016-09-13T00:00:00ZThe cosy house is in a great location a short walk to cafes, train, supermarket and Lake Como. During the winter season the ferry services don't run to Mandello but you can catch the ferry at other towns. The timetables are available at the tourist offices. If you want to buy a train ticket from Mandello these can be purchased at the kiosk on the road on platform 1 side.

Spoiled Mutt
For those of you that know me, know I love my dog. Bellini is a great addition to our family, so when I ran across this Spoiled Mutt I knew I had to sign up! Immediately!
I am not a fan of having my picture taken... but you can take pictures of my kid and my dog all day!
And how about these?
Seriously, fantastic!
These "mutts" are too cute!

Pro Troll Echip Kit - $8.88
Electro-Location is the primary method fish use to determine what and where to strike. The EChip mounted in lures and bait is scientifically and field-proven to attract more and bigger fish. The EChip is a small tube that encases a ball and proprietary microchip crystal. The rocking of the ball agitates the microchip and it gives off a tiny electrical pulse. The EChip duplicates the electrical nerve discharge of a wounded baitfish. This discharge is detected by predator fish and they will attack. The EChip never needs charging or batteries and it doesn't wear out. EChip kits allow the EChip to be attached to any lure or attractor. The hardware is included for mounting on leaders, wires, hooks, spoons, jigs or flat surfaces. The small 1/2 EChips are for small lures and the large 3/4 EChips are for large lures. Each kit has complete instructions. Available: Small Three Pack. Large Three Pack. Type: EChip Kits. - $8.88

Greens to rally on Mall to demand climate specifics from Obama
Source: The Hill
More than 20,000 protestors from around 160 organizations will swarm the National Mall Sunday in hopes of intensifying the pressure on President Obama over climate policy. ....... Were really past the point of playing games with any of this stuff, climate activist and 350.org co-founder Bill McKibben said in a Friday press call. Theres no time for half measures. McKibben said buses from 31 states are hauling people to Washington for the rally, which 350.org, Sierra Club and a number of other environmental and progressive groups are spearheading. Participants will meet at noon near the Washington Monument, where speakers such as McKibben, Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.) and others will address the crowd before marching on the White House.

17. Who is against a "better climate policy?"
Obama came out and made the climate a "key topic" of his second term, and, ignoring that, a bunch of people get out there and protest.... him.
Where are the people protesting his pre-K initiative....that's how much sense it makes, but hey, he's for it, now's as good a time as any to gripe that he's not doing enough! I have no objection to people protesting the pipeline, or fracking, or other issues, but when they make it about Obama (when it's Congress that creates law--where are the anti-Boner signs?) I smell a stench. It doesn't smell like an honest stench, either. Where were these people when Al Gore was robbed? |

9. U.S. Climate Policy Protest-National Mall, Tomorrow-Info
On Sunday, February 17th, thousands will rally in Washington, D.C. to call on President Obama to make climate change part of his presidential legacy. The Forward on Climate Rally is being held by 350.org, The Sierra Club, and the Hip-Hop Caucus.
The Rally will demand that President Obama prove his leadership on serious climate action by officially rejecting TransCanadas proposal to build the Keystone XL Pipeline across the U.S.-Canadian border. The KXL Pipeline would transport emissions-intensive tar sands oil across the U.S. Midwest to the Gulf of Mexico. In late 2011, over 15,000 people surrounded the White House pushing President Obama to deny the KXL Pipeline. . . http://act.350.org/signup/presidentsday http://forwardonclimate.org When: February 17th, at 12 Noon Where: The National Mall, Washington D.C. Who: 350.org, The Sierra Club and the Hip-Hop Caucus Why: To tell Barack Obama it's time to lead in the fight against climate change, beginning with the Keystone XL tar sands pipeline. . Already, 10,000 people have signed up to attend the Forward on Climate Rally. . . . . . . |

18. Unfortunate infalmmatory language in the article
It says, "The rally will put Obama in the crosshairs on climate change." Putting Obama in the "crosshairs" may incite radical elements to try an assasination attempt. It these dangerous times, we don't need reckless publications like The Hill inciting the crazies.

Ticket #11313 (new enhancement)
Opened 4 years ago
Can't assign guest audio to dedicated sound device on Host
Reported by: | random_luser | Owned by: | |
Priority: | minor | Component: | audio |
Version: | VirtualBox 4.2.6 | Keywords: | |
Cc: | Guest type: | all | |
Host type: | Windows |
I would like to assign all audio from a Guest into a specific audio device so that my kids can listen to audio on the Guest while I work on the host or other guests. I am using Windows 7 64-bit as Host.
The simplest solution would be to allow the guest audio to be directed to a specific audio device. This is possible using windows APIs, but in absence of choosing a device, VirtualBox sends all audio to "Default Device", which is then the same as all other Guests, as well as the Host. Therefore, all audio is mixed into 1 stream, which prevents isolation.

Now that Jeremy Corbyn's radical new populist approach is revealed – agreeing with the Conservatives on Brexit and immigration and promising that Labour would give the £350m of EU payments that never existed to the NHS – whether one of the 48% or the 52% all of us need clear answers to the question we've been asking since last June: What the hell happens now?
Set aside a couple hours to read Ian Dunt's analysis of the Brexit mess in his aptly-titled book Brexit: What the Hell Happens Now? and you'll get some answers. Unfortunately, they'll scare the living daylights out of you. The question of whether we (that is, the government) know what we want, and whether we have enough people with the degree of negotiating skills to get it are key questions explored in Dunt's book which ought to be required reading for everyone. The issues he raises are ones that should have been uppermost during the referendum, but which were hardly voiced by the lacklustre Remain campaign.

Being told you have a brain tumor can be scary, and you may have many questions. But you have people on your healthcare team to help.
Coping with fear
It's normal to feel afraid. Learning about your tumor and about the treatment options you have can make you feel less afraid. This also helps you work with your healthcare team and make the best choices for your treatment. You can also ask to speak with a counselor.
Working with your healthcare team
Your healthcare team will likely include:
Neurologist. A doctor who specializes in treating problems with the brain or nerves.
Neurosurgeon. A surgeon who specializes on surgery in the brain or nerves.
Medical oncologist. A doctor who specializes in giving medicines to treat tumors.
Radiation oncologist. A doctor who specializes in giving radiation to treat tumors.
Endocrinologist. A doctor who specializes in treating problems in glands that secrete hormones.
Your doctors and other members of your healthcare team will answer any questions you may have. They'll help you through each of the steps you'll take before, during, and after treatment. Your team will let you know what tests you need and the results of those tests. They'll guide you in making treatment decisions and help prepare you and your loved ones for what's ahead.
Learning about treatment options
To decide the best course of treatment for you, your healthcare team needs to know as much as they can about your tumor. This may involve getting some tests and working with more than one healthcare provider. And you may decide that you want to get a second opinion to help you choose a treatment.
Getting support
Coping with a tumor can be very stressful. Talk with your healthcare team about seeing a counselor. They can refer you to someone who can help. You can also visit support groups to talk with other people coping with tumors. Ask your healthcare team about local support groups.

Sci fi/Fantasy image by
Michelle RoppLet me guess - 'How is this fantasy?' Well, you wouldn't be asking that if it were colored (eek! Must do that some day). The mirror is a portal into the world that the girl came from, and now that it's broken, she has no way home. When it's colored, I plan to add a fading image of a forest in the mirror, and a bit of green at the end of some of those golden leaves. This really reflected my mood when I did it, but I'm fine now. Please comment! Please please please!

THE ANGELS TEARAragonNeo-Prog3.74 | 36 ratings |
From Progarchives.com, the ultimate progressive rock music website
Special Collaborator Symphonic Team |
A mature band It is sadly not an easy task to find the albums by Aragon, and indeed their previous, fifth, album, Mr. Angel, still eludes me. This sixth, and to date latest, release of the band took some effort to track down, but it was well worth that effort. After having reviewed the whole discography of Aragon (minus Mr. Angel), I feel that The Angel's Tear is the album that best brings together the respective strengths of all their previous releases while at the same time avoiding most of their flaws and also at the same time introducing something brand new into the band's sound. All this helps them to sound more confident and also more original than they did on their early releases. The vocals of Les Dougan have never sounded as passionate and powerful as they do here and the same must be said of the guitars of John Poloyannis that get a more prominent place in the sound than ever in the past. The lyrics are thoughtful and often existential in nature. The "mechanical" rhythm section of songs like the opening track, Growing Up In Cuckoo Land, and the midi-like keyboards of the short Discovery might trouble some people, but both tracks grew on me significantly after repeated listens. Indeed, all of the eight songs featured on The Angel's Tear are very strong. Favourite tracks for me include the nine minute In The Name Of God and the almost folky album closer The Silent Field with its Celtic-sounding drums. The album's longest track is the 13 minute title track while the shortest track, the aforementioned Discovery, is just under two minutes. The latter does indeed end rather abruptly and might perhaps have been extended somewhat. Another very short track is the weirdly titled Copper Bob And The Pirates At The Gates Of Dawn. This is actually quite weird musically too and features some notably theatrical "pirate" vocals and an almost Metal-like beat! There is a nice flow and a good balance throughout the album between acoustic and electrically based songs and between upbeat passages and more serene ones. This makes for a very appealing variation that keeps the album interesting from start to finish and invites recurrent listens. Thankfully, Aragon have also avoided the common pitfall to put too much music on the same album just because the space available on a compact disc allows for it. A running time of just over 40 minutes is often optimal. If you want to check out Aragon, The Angel's Tear is a great place to start. Let us hope that the band will return with another album in a not too far distant future and that they will also tour and perhaps record a live album/video that brings together songs from throughout their whole career. Excellent addition!

Indeed, research shows that for a start, the resources and literature available in modern university careers centres are more comprehensive than ever. While students from the past may have considered the material as "outdated" or even "vague," today's publications such as Your Degree What Next? and the Signpost information sheets cover every possible discipline in significant detail.
In addition, most careers services will provide access to a sophisticated careers guidance software package called Prospects HE. This offers advice on every stage of career planning from suggesting career ideas, which match your personal profile, to writing a CV and completing an application form. What's more, the system is unique to university careers services. Similar careers advice is available via a graduate telephone line run by the Association of Graduate Careers Advisory Services (AGCAS).
If you already have a career area in mind, it's worth taking advantage of free literature such as information booklets on occupational areas and reference material with details including contacts and addresses. You will also be able to take away, or read in the reference section, publications listing national graduate vacancies, such as Prospects Today. The careers service's own graduate vacancy bulletin is particularly useful for local graduate opportunities.
One of the most popular methods of job hunting through the careers service is the Internet. The incentive for employers to take advantage of this has recently been increased by an annual award given by The Association of Graduate Recruiters for the best graduate recruitment website. Last year's winner was the army, and the websites of Schroders, Glaxo Wellcome and BT were highly commended. Some of them even allow you to register or apply for vacancies on-line. And if you're not a regular surfer, remember that the careers service staff are there to help. Access to word processing facilities may be available, but do check in advance.
All university careers services belong to AGCAS and as such have agreed to provide a reciprocal service to recent graduates. As a result, provided you are within three years of having graduated, you can use a university careers service other than your own - which can be very useful if you've moved back home. Some services are even funded to provide free guidance interviews for unemployed graduates or deliver job hunting workshops. Others charge a small fee of pounds 10-pounds 40.
Of particular value is an initiative for graduates in the East Midlands region. Here, seven of the higher education institutions have collaborated to provide a free-of-charge co-ordinated series of one day Job Seeking Skills Workshops. Back in London, a consortium of three universities and three private careers services, led by London University, offers a service called C2. Based at London University, C2 is open from Monday to Thursday from 5pm to 8pm, offering services such as brief careers advice on a non- appointment drop-in basis for pounds 10; a guidance interview for pounds 70; or a careers group session for pounds 12. Manager, Kavita Sharma, says, ''We see graduates at the start of their careers and those who graduated some time ago, but want to change or develop their careers.'' In a novel approach to make contact with as many graduates as possible, C2 will be providing a CV checking service at Euston railway station from 7am to 7pm, on Monday 22 February. For more details call 0171-554 4555.
Career fairs aimed at graduates tend to take place in the summer, providing a valuable opportunity to talk to employers and careers advisers. But consulting engineering firm Ove Arup and Partners echoes the view of an increasing number of businesses in commenting, "We have changed the strategy a little this year by moving away from displaying our wares at careers fairs, and instead started targeting departments where we think a university might be able to help us with a particular discipline."
Other employers appear to favour certain departments of certain universities not so much because they are looking for expertise in particular disciplines, but because they want a simple way of reducing the annual avalanche of applications. Consequently, it is essential to ask staff about the particular businesses that take an interest in your department.

11 College Courses You MUST Take
Having a rudimentary understanding of certain subjects can become very useful throughout life and it is actually in your best interest to develop, at the very least, basic skills.
Elizabeth Hoyt
March 30, 2016
Your college will require you to take core undergraduate courses, which can either become very useful for your future or a series of generic lectures that you will not find the slightest bit beneficial. The latter is rather unfortunate but it should not turn you off to the idea of taking courses outside of your major altogether.
In fact, having a rudimentary understanding of certain subjects can become very useful throughout life and it is actually in your best interest to develop, at the very least, basic skills.
These will come in handy in terms of your education, career and life. While it may not be possible to take all of the below courses, it is possible to see how students could benefit from course material within each. Some are included within an undergraduate's core curriculum but varies based on each college.
Before you sign up for any courses, take time to consider which you might benefit most from and which fits within your program requirements to count towards graduation.
The following list details recommendations of college courses you should consider taking, regardless of your intended or current major, in order to gain a solid intellectual foundation.
Most people will loathe the mere suggestion (myself included) but if you plan to have a job, that means you have plans to make money. Moreover, if you plan to make money that means you will have to pay taxes. If you can file your own taxes and manage your own money, you are going to be a lot more self-sufficient than most of your peers (or most of the world, for that matter).
Perhaps you're not the world's most outwardly creative individual. Nevertheless, that doesn't mean you cannot appreciate and cultivate an understanding for the arts. Nor should it stop you from bringing out your inner Picasso! Nobody is one-dimensional in terms of talent (including you) and college is all about exploration.
Business/Business Management
Whether you plan on starting your own business, working for a large company or a small office – business is everywhere when it comes to the work environment. Though you may not be managing the business, it's useful to know how things operate and what your managers or superiors and going through, how businesses operate and how important business decisions are made. Not to mention, if your superior ever asks your opinion on a business matter, you should be able to answer intelligently!
Whether speaking to one or one hundred people, it's important to learn how to articulate your message clearly. In these courses, you'll learn to get your point across through understanding your audience, conveying your message and speaking with confidence.
Our past influences such a large part of our future and understanding these historic events can help propel future discoveries. While there is far too much history to learn in one course, choosing one topic that interests you is certainly a great start!
No matter what field you choose to go into, strong writing skills will not only be beneficial, but essential to your success as well. They'll help you to communicate with future employers and, once you gain employment, your boss and colleagues. You will find that writing skills will become necessary your entire life. Trust me, though the format may be changing to e-mail, the art of writing is here to stay.
Physical Education
Great as an elective, any course that keeps you active is always a great idea. Moreover, it may help you discover new interests that you never knew you had!
Political Science
The American government is confusing and, assuming you'd like to become an informed citizen when you vote, this is a good option to do so. Within these courses, you can learn about how elections really work, how the government is structured and, of course, politics galore!
Science is all around us! Learning about scientific subjects will further your discovery about the world in which you live. You can choose from such an array of topics – pick one that interests you and explore!
Involved in so many of our business and financial decisions, statistics often seem to make the world go round. A basic understanding how statistics are calculated is integral to making the very decisions based on them.
Web Design/Development

Lethem in Slate
"We asked Lethem to recommend 10 essential tracks for those new to Talking Heads, which, from 1975 to 1991, created a catalog of songs as eclectic and original as those of any of their rock and pop contemporaries."
Spotify time!
