OFFLINE MAP
Varenna's former convent of Villa Monastero was transformed into a vast, private
residence by the Mornico family between the 17th and 19th centuries. Stroll
through the magnificent gardens and enjoy the luxuriant floral, including yucca
trees, camellias and magnolias, one of which is said to be 400 years old. The in-
terior is no less extravagant - in the room that fronts the bathroom, the walls are
covered in Spanish leather to protect the walls from humidity! (
