Laglio remains a quiet lakeside village and has not changed at all since George Clooney moved in, apart from greatly increasing the desirability of the location. It is only 15 minutes' drive from Como and 45 minutes from Malpensa airport. The village has a small store, a butcher, bank, post office and several excellent lakeside restaurants.

Situated on the western shore of Lake Como, Laglio is one of the most beautiful villages with the added advantage of being one of only 4 villages that benefit from being situated directly on the lake road, avoiding almost all traffic travelling up and down the lake on the main bypass road.
