Villa Pliniana:
Set on the shores of Lake Como in the village of Torno, Villa Pliniana is a restored 16th-century palazzo surrounded by 18 acres of private grounds.
The villa sits directly on the water, with views across the lake and surrounding woodland. As a result, it works well for destination weddings where the location itself becomes part of the experience.
Originally built in 1573, the property now combines historic architecture with updated interiors. The restoration was completed in collaboration with designer Patricia Urquiola.
The villa is available for exclusive hire.
Accommodation
The property includes 18 bedrooms and three separate houses, accommodating up to 40 guests.
Many rooms have views across the lake, and all are designed for longer stays across a wedding period. This allows guests to stay together on the estate rather than in separate locations.
