This is a magical place. We stayed here for one week on our honeymoon and couldn't have asked for a nicer experience. Marco was very friendly and very helpful. He met us in the town and showed us the way to the house, which is on a hillside with the most spectacular views imaginable. And he showed us through the house and was on hand in case we had any problems (which we didn't). The house itself seems to be a refurbished stone barn and is decorated with utmost care and attention to detail. The house is surrounded by forest and is super quiet (except for the odd squirrel fossicking around at night), but not isolated because the town is only a short drive away. The area itself is lovely and you can get away from the tourists, although if you want to visit Lake Como or Vatellina it's possible to make a day trip there and escape to your private space at Marco's house afterwards. The town of Sarnico is a short drive away and they have a fantastic Enoteca in the main square where you can taste local wines. Also don't miss the gelataria there. It has semifreddo patisserie cups and biscotti gelato. I don't often say I would wish to return to a particular place, but this was such a lovely experience that we are both hoping to make it back to Marco's house for a return visit.
