The park surrounding Villa Camilla, rented for luxury vacations on Lake Como, was originally designed as an English garden in the mid 19th century and features age old trees of great beauty. Many of the gardens on the banks of Lake Como were originally formal Italianate gardens later transformed into English gardens, but only two were actually conceived as English gardens: the gorgeous parks of Villa Camilla and Villa Melzi at Bellagio.

Acers, cork oaks, redwood pines, Chilean monkey-puzzle trees, cedars and Japanese bamboo are just a few of the beautiful and rare botanical examples that can be admired there. In this lovely green area there is also a small vegetable garden with a variety of fruit trees. Should they so wish, guests at the Villa may personally select the organic fruit and vegetables to be enjoyed in the many excellent dishes prepared by the chef at their service. At the back of the villa there is a truly ancient stone cellar with vaulted ceilings and a vast selection of local, Italian and international wines. Restoration and refurbishment have been carried out in compliance with the principles of sustainable architecture and the interiors created to reflect the finest of Feng-shui philosophy, thanks to expert advice from internationally respected professionals.
