This sweet little village, dating back to 1230, has a crooked watchtower that can be seen from afar. There is a charming 13th-century parish church and a few shops and trattorias. Monticchiello is known for its Teatro Povera performances each year.
We are visiting Lago di Como and have spent the last three days at our newest vacation home, Villa al Pontile.
