The magnificent loggia, “embroidered” by a climbing ficus, offers panoramic views of the Mid-Lake area spanning from Bellagio to Comacina Island. Unsurprisingly, the villa has been chosen many times as a film set; the most famous films shot here include “Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones” and “Casino Royale”. On the upper floor of the residence, accessible thanks to a guided visit that must be booked when purchasing a ticket, there is an unusual museum that brings together the art collections and travel souvenirs of the villa’s last owner, the explorer Guido Monzino, a lover of expeditions and man of great culture. In his will, he left the villa to the Italian environmental protection agency, FAI. The garden has terraces and balustrades, It is a magical and wonderful place where  can celebrate a fairytale wedding,  anniversaries and private events.
