Company info

We are Claudia and Lorenzo, and together with our three children we live at Molino Maufet, a historic watermill lovingly restored and brought back to life. We decided to open the doors of this unique place to share its history and the atmosphere it offers in every season. Our hospitality is warm yet discreet: we will be happy to welcome you and suggest itineraries and experiences around Lake Como, while always respecting your privacy. Guests can enjoy not only the comfort of their accommodation but also the 4,000 m² garden with fruit trees and aromatic herbs, as well as visit the mill itself, which preserves centuries of history.

Property info

La Volta is a charming apartment inside Molino Maufet, a historic watermill on Lake Como carefully restored in a sustainable way, reusing original materials and adopting modern energy-saving technologies. It is located in the charming hamlet of Villatico, the historic center of Colico, in a panoramic position and just steps from the Sentiero del Viandante hiking trail. The property overlooks the northern branch of Lake Como, at the foot of Mount Legnone (2,609 m), the highest peak in the western Orobie Alps. Inside you will find a double bedroom, a living room with a fully equipped kitchen (fridge, freezer, dishwasher, Nespresso machine, kettle, induction hob) and a foldaway double sofa bed, plus two bathrooms with windows, both with shower and bidet (one with washing machine). The apartment features air conditioning, Wi-Fi, linens included, two levels, and a private outdoor patio. Parking space available upon request (subject to availability) or free public parking 20 m away. Guests can also enjoy the shared 4,000 m² garden with fruit trees, aromatic herbs, and a fully equipped BBQ pergola. Perfect in every season: colorful in autumn, magical in winter with snow, and surrounded by lush nature in spring and summer.

Neighborhood info

Molino Maufet is located in the historic hamlet of Villatico, the oldest part of Colico, in a hilly and panoramic position overlooking Lake Como. The neighbourhood has preserved its authentic charm: the ancient Church of San Bernardino, the old washhouse, and the narrow stone lanes lead directly to the mill, creating a unique and picturesque setting. The road from Colico Piano up to Villatico is fully paved and two-way; only the last 20 meters are narrower, but still accessible even for vans and small trucks. Guests have access to one parking space per apartment (unassigned, standard size). In addition, there is a free public parking lot just 30 meters away. The area is quiet and peaceful, yet the centre of Colico with shops, restaurants and the train station is only a few minutes away by car or about a 10-minute walk (uphill on the way back).
