Om boendet

Fantastisk villa med 10 sovrum med pool på det historiska Appian-sättet

Villa Cappelli lovar dig en oförglömlig, autentisk vistelse i en verkligt oupptäckt del av Italien. Koppla av och fördjupa dig i italiensk övergivenhet - maten, folket, det roliga.

Villa ligger majestätiskt på den antika Via Appia i staden Terlizzi, strax nordväst om Bari i regionen Puglia.

Ingen är helt säker på när villan först spratt ut men vissa historiker tror att trädgården en gång varit en klosterträdgård från 1200-talet. Byggnaderna "gård" på fastigheten går troligen från 1300- och 1400-talet. Medan de nyaste tilläggena antagligen byggdes på 1600- eller 1700-talet, tros en speciell plats i villan vara förkristen.

Landet, fyllt med fossiler från 10 miljoner år sedan, täcks av gamla olivlundar, vingårdar och fruktträd. Hela villan är helt omsluten av en 18 fot vägg och har en formell halv tunnland trädgård nästan uteslutande med citrusträd, rosor och lavendel.

Medan den är genomsyren av historien har villan också moderna bekvämligheter som gratis WiFi, ett fullt utrustat kök samt matlagning och städtjänster.

Koppla av i komfort med gott om plats för alla dina vänner och familj. Det finns 10 sovrum och 8 fulla bad för upp till 20 gäster (högst 20 personer om inte tidigare avtalats). Du kan njuta av många gemensamma rum och sprida dig för att njuta av hela 2000 kvadratmeter strukturen. Alla kommer att hitta sitt favoritutrymme, med läsrum, ett enormt fullt kök komplett med en vedeldad tegelugn, en utomordentlig stor terrass med magnifik utsikt och en loggia med utsikt över den lyxiga poolen på 40x20 ft (12x6 meter) och en enorm klosterträdgård full av citrusträd och färska örter. Du hittar också att Villa Cappelli är bekvämt beläget nära många stora attraktioner.

Du kan hyra villan dag, vecka eller längre. Det finns också för privata funktioner, fester, banketter, konferenser och högtider.

Under din vistelse kommer du att använda en tvättmaskin, kyl, diskmaskin, ugn, mikrovågsugn och mer. Städservice samt shopping och matlagningstjänster finns också tillgängliga för att göra din vistelse extra rolig.

Vi har fått en rad gäster att njuta av villan från hela världen, inklusive medlemmar av den brittiska kungafamiljen, Bob Tuschman från The Food Network, den världsberömda fotografen Paul Freeman, scenen och TV-regissören Scott Ellis, verklighets-TV-stjärnan Fredrik Ekland och musikgruppen Elbow.

Oavsett om du vill koppla av med familjen eller utforska med vänner kan du skapa den perfekta semestern här på Villa Cappelli.

Vi har en liten lägenhet i lokalerna, så vi är alltid tillgängliga för att ställa frågor och tillhandahålla conciergetjänster. Vi är flytande engelska, italienska och den lokala dialekten, och känner till området väl, så vi kan hjälpa till med alla conciergetjänster du kan behöva, från matlagning och städning till skåpbilsuthyrning och middagsreservation.

Du hittar inte en upplevelse som denna någon annanstans.

Fabulous Villa and memories of a lifetime

We stayed at this gorgeous villa to celebrate my mother’s 80th birthday. What an incredible week we had. The villa is stunning and huge and has plenty of space for our group of 14. The villa and rooms combined the old with the new. Every single room had its own charm. Steven the owner was so incredibly helpful in suggesting places to visit, restaurants and providing history. One day he took us into town to his favorite cheese shop with the most delicious mozzarella and ricotta cheese, to his butcher and the fruit and vegetable market in addition to a walking tour of Terlizzi. He cooked multi course authentic meals for the Puglia and Terlizzi regions. There were so many courses and so much food one dish better than the next. I could eat Steven and Vito’s cooking every single day. Their wine and after dinner drinks were also delicious. The villa has so much charm and beauty. We took day trips from the villa to explore all that Puglia has to offer. We made memories of a lifetime. Thank you Steven and Vito for every little thing. I hope one day we can go back. We loved our stay!

When food and friends are the occasion

I had the good fortune to visit Villa Cappelli with friends this late summer. It was one of those once-in-a-lifetime visits I hope to repeat! I live in New York, so the chance to spend a few days with friends in the calm, stunning beauty of this villa was pure gold. My room was clean and beautiful, decorated with amazing taste (it turns out our host Paul has 'the eye' for thrift finds and amazing decor). From my window, I was amazed to watch an owl swoop across the garden one night, and hear the owls pip to one another after dusk. The plants, the vegetables, the fruitful trees, it is all so magnificent and reminds you of the simple pleasures of life all around you. Paul and Steven are the most excellent hosts, breakfast was always delicious and abundant, and since they didn't have many other guests when we were there, making lunch became an adventure we all got to take part in, riding into town to see the cappuccino lady, the bakery man, the mozzarella man, the butcher man, and the thrift store ladies (just for fun!) - Amazing to see this community in action and feel so welcome in it. Then lunch - each day, a new creation in the kitchen, a new delicacy to enjoy with friends around the table. Villa Cappelli has lots to see and do, it's historic and relaxing - but I have to say the food was the #1 for me. And the owls a close #2. :) We'll be back again for sure.

Our best big family holiday location yet

A holiday where everything was perfect. We were a large family group of 20+ ranging from 83-10 years old. The house is spectacular, as are the views of the surrounding olive groves, direct on the Appian Way. Just a few minutes drive from Terlizzi. It has a beautiful pool, large covered outdoor dinning area, cooled by fans, looking out onto the Roman gardens. The kitchen was fabulously stocked. Our hosts were incredibly generous, taking us shopping, giving us site seeing tips and generally making our stay extremely enjoyable. We will definitely come again. Thank you

Perfect Italian countryside retreat!

We just loved our stay at Villa Cappelli and hope to be back someday! We were traveling with 2 young kids (ages 6 and 1.5) in the off-season and Paul and Steven were so helpful in answering my many questions about anything we might need to bring for the girls (we didn't need to bring much--they supplied a crib for us, and put us in a wonderfully cozy adjoining-room suite. Paul and Steven are just the perfect hosts: laid-back but friendly, and incredibly sweet to our kids. My older daughter still refers to Paul as Uncle Paul and his amazing secret garden. The cats and the PUPPIES were the biggest hit of our entire trip. We even had a wonderful dinner prepared by our hosts on our last night--what a memorable and delicious treat! Hope to be back again when it's warm so we can lounge by that beautiful pool. Oh, a tip if you travel in the winter--definitely bring slippers and cozy pajamas/robe. The floors in the gorgeous old villa can get mighty cold!

We were treated like family. Can't wait to go back

Where do I start...I've been all over the world, on cruises, on tours, in B&B's, yet our trip to Villa Cappelli felt like no other vacation. It felt like coming home and spending 10 days with Our family. And I think that's the highest compliment you can ever give. Paul, Steven & Casey went out of their way to make everyone feel like a relative. We really were "Italians" for 10 days.. From gathering wild mushrooms in the hills, to helping to harvest their liquid gold olive oil, to helping prepare classic meals..To even watching a late night "domino" game to biking thru ancient towns.. It was a dream come true. We will definitely return. I give it a 10 plus plus.. Mille Grazie Ville Cappelli

Wonderful!

Thank you for such an awesome week. We LOVED it there. The kids had the best time they have ever had in the 10 years they have been doing this. The kittens blew their minds. Indeed we all had the best time. Great food, amazing drinks and really great people all in a gorgeous location. I’ll be honest, we are always a little dubious about on site owners, we’ve had some odd experiences in the past but you guys really were the stars of the show. It was really great to meet you. We all agreed there were another few nights on the getting-to-know-you-Martinis in order.

A unique, authentic Italian experience

Our visit to Villa Cappelli was the highlight of our trip. We arrived on Mothers Day and were treated to an authentic Italian luncheon that included guests and family of our hosts, Paul & Steven. The homemade wine, fresh fruits and vegetables from the garden, Italian and English conversation made us feel like real Italians, not just tourists. The property dates back to the 6th century and maintains much of the original architecture but modern comforts like high end shower heads are integrated seamlessly into the setting. Villa Cappelli is on the Appian way and there is plenty to do in the area. Paul graciously escorted us to several local spots and provided tons of facts and stories about the history of this locality. It is a post card perfect location that we would recommend to anyone.

What a day!

Ho conosciuto i proprietari della Villa Cappelli, Paul e Steven, per il loro impegno nella promozione turistica e la salvaguardia della Via Appia Traiana, sulla quale la Villa si affaccia. Sono stato così attratto dalla loro passione per il territorio che ho deciso di fare della Villa il set privilegiato per il mio matrimonio pugliese. Amo la Puglia, da tempo. Il clima, il cibo e l'accoglienza: Villa Cappelli ha riunito queste pregevoli virtù della tradizione del Sud Italia per poi consegnarle ai miei ospiti. Un matrimonio fantastico, ricolmo di cultura, attenzione e prodotti della terra. Ho smosso mezzo universo per farlo venire a visitare questo luogo benedetto da Madre Natura, mancavano solo gli alieni! :-) Australia, Cina, Giappone, America, India e Europa... tutti ospiti a me cari che hanno goduto dello splendore del luogo. Paul e Steven sono stati unici, capaci di rendere il mio giorno davvero speciale e stupendomi con la semplicità, il gusto e l'eleganza dell'ambiente sereno e rustico da loro creato. Ero al settimo cielo, era proprio quello che volevo, la vera terra, la vera Puglia! La cerimonia è iniziata tra gli ulivi, nella distesa di quegli alberi millenari che hanno assistito al nostro giuramento d'amore. I nostri ospiti seduti su sedie bianche di stoffa e i gentleman inglesi in piedi di spalle delle loro donne che reggendo un ombrellino bianco per ripararle dal sole. Davvero un tocco di classe! Allo scambio delle fedi tra gli applausi e l'emozione dei nostri cari, amici e colleghi, sono arrivati i suonatori di pizzica che con una fisarmonica ci hanno accompagnato all'ingresso della villa dove un catering professionale e preparato ha offerto ai miei ospiti le gioie della terra. Tutto il cibo era freschissimo e preparato a vista, sul momento. La mozzarella, il caciocavallo, i tanti tipi di panzerotti e chi più ne ha più ne metta. Era davvero una festa, e per me condividere la gioia di quel giorno e donarla anche ai miei ospiti è stato un momento importante. Potrei continuare per ore nella descrizione di quell'incredibile giorno che mi accompagnerà per tutta la vita, ma in questa recensione volevo solo scrivere che questo è stato il posto da sogno che auguro ad ogni innamorato dell'universo, anche agli extraterrestri! :-) Grazie di cuore Paul e Steven, evviva Villa Cappelli e il vostro palpabile amore per la bella terra di Puglia.

Villa Cappelli is AMAZING!

The first thing I remember when I think about Villa Cappelli are its owners, Paul and Steven. Not in memory have I ever felt so welcomed and included in the lives of these two perfect strangers. It just seemed like the moment I checked into the villa, I was part of the family, and the day to days activities that happen there: sometimes there is olive picking, other moments the lavender in the garden is being harvested or tomatoes are being dried on the terrace. This is a place for travellers to visit if they are into committed to seeing the real Italy, which is more about breaking bread with beautiful friends than seeing the coliseum or the grand canal. Paul and Steven are amazing cooks. When I visited, it sort of felt like every day was thanksgiving, or some celebration of friends and food. It goes without saying that the villa itself, positioned as it is on the ancient Roman road, Via Adriana, is an incredibly stunning and special place. The road is lined with umbrella pines, and I remember seeing a group of bikers staying at the villa, ridding it off into the acres and acres of olive groves that surround the villa in every direction. I know these guys have put great care into revealing and preserving the history and traditions of this part of the world, evident in the care they took with repairing and pouring all their energies into breathing life back into a place that they originally found in absolute ruin. Honestly, what I can say about the villa, and recommend to friends, is that if you're in the market for a vacation that actually has another dimension to it; learning about a community, its food, its history, this place ticks every box. But it also is an amazing spot if you just want to loaf by the pool, have cocktails and catch up on reading. I am not a cyclist myself, but I know that Paul organises extensive bike excursions for guests throughout greater Puglia, as I saw many of them coming and going when I stayed there. They were also planning a wedding during my visit and I watched how excited the bride to be was as she walked through the villa's courtyard out into the rose covered garden, and I thought to myself, how awesome it would be to get married here! The other cool aspect of staying at the villa was that you could make it as fancy or laid back an affair as you wanted. These guys will cook your meals, or let you run the kitchen. I will come back to see Villa Cappelli again, both for the beauty of the place and its owners.

The Italy I Imagined...

My husband and I stayed at Villa Cappelli with six other friends; we could not have had a better experience! This was my first time in Italy and I wanted to enjoy the historic sites, pastoral views, and of course the food and wine! Besides a meal or two that we had while touring, Steven prepared the majority of our meals including local lamb, tomatoes and fresh mozzarella (which we bought as fresh as fresh can get-directly from a dairy farm), asparagus (which we picked in a local forest alongside a 13th century castle) and of course a zesty pasta, just to name a few. Paul was an excellent tour guide, inserting little pieces of current news, events, and flavor as we made our way along the Appian Way or out to the emerald waters of the Adriatic. The accommodations were comfortable and the mattress was perfect! We slept in later than we do anywhere else. The large windows in the bedroom framed a large expanse of olive trees and it was peaceful to watch an incoming storm. We would have stayed longer, but we planned a two-day experience in Rome. Paul brought us to the local train station (only 10 minutes away) and waited for us to catch our train. I highly recommend Villa Cappelli for groups, families, adventure seekers, environmentally-minded folks, etc. Oh...and I forgot to mention-they make their own wine, olive oil, limoncello, and liquors!

Wonderful, magical Villa Cappelli!

My family and I came to Villa Cappelli to spend a week with friends. What a fabulous place to spend our vacation! Our suite was quite lovely (three rooms, sitting room and a bathroom) and the other suites/rooms were just as wonderful. Old school furnishings (but comfy) in keeping with the centuries-old villa. Our hosts were truly welcoming and loads of fun. We learned a lot from Paul, Steven and Casey. AND the food was phenomenal (we arranged to have nightly group dinners at the villa). They also make their own wine, olive oil, conserves. One evening, Paul arranged for a local pizzaca band to come and entertain us. What a treat! The band was fantastic. The villa is close to picture postcard beaches and to a castle. Beautiful Lecce is three-hours away. Lounging around the villa was also terrific - they have a great pool! Our kids loved it at the villa and they loved the Villa Cappelli family (including the three dogs and countless kitties). We highly recommend Villa Cappelli! (and we miss it already)

"When I dream of Italy, I'll dream of Villa Cappelli

My family just returned from a week-long stay at Villa Cappelli in the Puglia region of Italy. We were with a group of 13 people, many of us with children (ranging in age from 5 to 13), and we all agreed it was one of the best, most luxurious, most relaxing, most delicious, most interesting, most unique vacations we ever took – one that gave us a taste of authentic, unspoiled Italy that most U.S. tourists don’t experience. We flew directly from NYC to Rome, and then took a quick, inexpensive connecting flight to Bari, from which the Villa is a short, 20-minute drive (we rented a car at the Bari airport). For the trip home, when we were better rested, we chose to drive back to Rome, and that was an easy four and a half hour drive on the highway. The Villa itself and its surroundings are absolutely gorgeous and bursting with rustic charm and natural beauty. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, and handsomely furnished, with modern bathrooms. The pool and garden are beautiful, and beyond the property walls, you can see miles and miles of olive groves all around, which means there is plenty of peace, quiet, and privacy here. I should mention this is also a great vacation for families with children, as the kids can run safely throughout the property, and there is much here for them to explore and enjoy. But by far, what makes this such a special vacation, is the hospitality of the owners, Paul Cappelli, his partner Steven (both formerly of New York City), and Paul’s daughter Casey. From the moment you arrive, they go out of their way to make your stay comfortable and memorable, whether it be a welcoming glass of prosecco, an escorted shopping trip into town, or an impromptu pasta-making class in the villa kitchen. We asked them to provide dinners for our group, and these meals were a highlight of the stay for everyone. Each day, they would head to town and return with fresh fish, seafood, cheese and meat, which they would lovingly prepare with vegetables and herbs from their own garden, complimented by their home-made olive oil (essentially liquid gold—it will put you off all other olive oil for life), wine (red and easily drinkable), and liqueurs, including their own Limoncello and walnut liqueur. Each night, our group would gather for a long, leisurely meal, sitting at a candlelit table outside by the pool, as our hosts brought out course after course of delicious, home-cooked Italian food. These meals put the ones we had in Rome to shame, and were shocking

Villa Cappelli exceeded our very high expectations!

As I read all the laudatory reviews about Villa Cappelli, I found it hard to believe this was such a perfect place...surely the reviews had been written by Paul and his friends. Having just returned from two weeks at the Villa, I agree totally with all the wonderful things that have been written in prior reviews...they are NOT made up! We chose Villa Cappelli to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary. We had never rented sight-unseen before, and Paul responded to all my anxious e-mails in great detail and with great patience. We had 23 family members for the 1st week, and a different 22 for the second week. Ages were 2 to 75 years. From the moment Paul opened the gate to welcome us, we entered an enchanting time. Paul, Steven and Casey were the perfect hosts-always available yet never intrusive. We were delighted with every aspect of the Villa: we cooked in the marvelously equipped kitchen and swam til we were exhausted in the large pool. The children (and adults) loved exploring the garden and the olive groves. Plenty of common indoor and outdoor areas to have our large group all together, yet plenty of places to be by yourself. Paul's knowledge of and passion for the Villa and the area were never-ending, as was his willingness to share them with us. Steven cooked three superlative meals for us and Casey was helpful in so many ways. We felt like good friends, not like paying guests. Having their homemade wine and liquors and jams was really special. The pictures on the website are a true reflection of the Villa, yet can't begin to do it justice. Our family felt the same way: over and over they enthused over the Villa and couldn't believe their good fortune in being able to be there. All of us would return in a heart-beat, and we strongly, strongly recommend this wonderful place. The vrbo.com review guidelines say not to include any personally identifiable information - or else I'd include our names and e-mail address so that anyone wanting more information could contact me. Instead, we've encouraged Paul to use us for references. We LOVED every minute of our stay at Villa Cappelli and hope to return.

Villa Cappelli is a remarkable place

Our stay at Villa Cappelli was without a doubt the best vacation I have ever had. From the moment we got there we were made to feel like part of a remarkable family. The villa is unique and fascinating and beautiful. The grounds with all the beautiful plants and pool and view takes your breath away. Paul and Steven are the most hospitable and considerate hosts anyone could hope for. The bedrooms and furnishings are all amazing. And the food! Steven is a fantastic cook and the local produce, fish, etc was such a treat. The best part for me was when we would sit around the big dining table after eating and drinking for hours and joke and laugh late into the night. I felt like I was with family. I miss Villa Cappelli, Paul, Steven and Casey and cannot wait to go back again!

Fabulous week at Villa Capelli

The beautiful accommodations were surpassed only by the warm and wonderful hosts. We were there as part of a biking Puglia tour, and it's perhaps our best vacation ever. Be sure to arrange for the hosts to prepare at least one meal; the food was fabulous.

This charming 14th century Villa provides the perfect setting to explore the beautiful region of Puglia. The owners welcome you into their quaint Villa. The food was never never ending and so good that I could hardly wait until the next meal. The evening we took over the kitchen to make our own designer pizzas in an pizza oven several hundred years old was a fantastic experience. All of this was accompanied with home made wine, olive oil and other fabulous liquors. Fortunate for us we were cycling through the countryside and along the beautiful Adriatic everyday to keep the pounds from staying on.

AMAZING!

We were a party of 21 people ranging in age from 7 to 85, extended family celebrating my parents 60th Wedding Anniversary. What a memorable time we had from the incredibly warm welcome to our sad goodbyes. Paul, Stephen, Casey and Logan work so hard and nothing is too much trouble. The atmosphere is very relaxed, even with 11 children running around. We ate there every night, drinking homemade wine (the best) and homemade liqueurs (we brought back some limoncello) The food was delicious - course after course of the freshest Italian food served in an amazing huge room at a long table (because it was too cold to eat outside) There were many vegetarians among us but that was no problem at all - everyone was catered for. The house is on the Appian Way which means there's virtually no traffic. They had lots of bikes that the kids could ride up and down. There are lots of animals, which the kids especially liked. 3 docile, laid-back dogs and 11 cats. Paul took us out for the day - we went to a mozzarella farm and a town made up of caves. On another occasion we went shopping for food with Paul - what an experience - we were give so many things to taste by the shop-owners. The area is completely untouristy and lots to see and do. We all agreed we had such an amazing week and this had a lot to do with the hosts. We'd love to return.

Amazing Stay In Terlizzi

Having never been to a country/ area where English is not a primary language, we decided to take an organized group tour to Puglia, Italy... staying at Villa Cappelli. We could not have asked for a better vacation! After driving through miles of olive groves, uninterrupted vistas of the Puglia countryside and beautiful towns filled with stunning architecture, we arrived at Villa Cappelli in Terlizzi. The gate to Villa Cappelli (right on the Apian Way!) opened and we realized we were staying in a piece of history... yet, in someone's home; not a "hotel". The view from the entrance gate alone is breathtaking. The cobblestone walkways, stone arches, and gateway to the pool area and gardens immediately transported us to a relaxed way of living. The owners greeted us and welcomed us with open arms. A tour of the one-of-a-kind grounds ended at our room. A few stone steps down into our accommodations and we settled in to our room... vaulted ceilings made from stone... a fireplace with a wood stove... beautiful artwork and antiques and a bathroom fit for a king! During the week we stayed at Villa Cappelli, we were able to visit other guests' rooms and saw that each one was unique; carefully restored and beautifully appointed with antiques and authentic rustic Italian details. Having a host who speaks Italian and English made a huge difference with regard to how much more we could enjoy our visit. Paul (owner) was great about accompanying the tour to translate and order at restaurants etc. And, the bike tour leaders were super about helping with the translations and making sure we got the most out of our trip with regard to learning the history of the area, where to go for shopping etc. The Terlizzi area is not a stereotypical "tourist" area in Italy and not everyone speaks English. We highly recommend a stay at Villa Cappelli. The region it is in is grogeous and easy to get around. The villa is a one of a kind experience... accomdations you will never forget.

An experience you'll never forget.

I stayed at the Villa last May with a group of gents on a bike tour for a week. To be perfectly honest, it was an experience that I will never forget. From the moment we were picked up at the airport, we were wined, dined, and given a tour of ancient Italy that no one would usually encounter on a tour. We met, ate, and hung out with the locals...we saw, touched, and smelled what "real" Italy is like...as we relaxed, socialized, and soaked it all up with the hospitality of Paul, Steven, and the tour guides. I would say that my room was like something out of "A room with a view" - it was breath taking to say the least. In a trip for me that encompassed three other countries, the experience I had at the Villa and Terlizzi was by far the best, hands-down. I cannot wait to return next spring to the and do it all over again!

Fabulous stay at Villa Cappelli

I had a fabulous two week stay at Villa Cappelli. At this 14th Century villa on the "Via Appia" one feels like stepping back in history while enjoying all the amenities of a luxury inn. I am a tour director/bike guide and brought a group of 12 bikers to the Villa to stay for a week and do bike day trips in the surrounding area visiting castles, national parks and wonderful old coastal towns. All of the bikers had rave reviews of the Villa and our host/owners Paul and Steven. The owners could not have been more accommodating. They organized the bike routes and supplied bikes, local guides, and a support van. We opted to eat many of our meals at the Villa; food was all homemade with local produce and products AND delicious. Again rave reviews from my biking clients. I am sure we will use Villa Cappelli in the future and I have already recommended it to several friends.

We discovered a crumbling villa near our family's hometown in Puglia, Italy. The 22,000-square-foot property lacked doors, windows and running water, but it had a vineyard and groves of almond, olive, and fruit trees that were among the finest in the region. From the moment we stepped foot on this property, we felt that we needed to restore its soul. In the process, it ended up restoring ours.

Varför värden valde detta boende

This town, this entire part of Italy in fact, is so real, so amazing, so untouched, it just feels like you are transported back in time. A simpler time. Where it’s all about family. It's all about natural, locally grown food (nothing is ever eaten out of season). It’s all about slowing down and enjoying life. While very private and secluded, the villa is just a quick drive to many big towns, including the capital city of Bari. And there are several great day trips you can do in the morning (Polignano a Mare, Matera, Castel del Monte, etc.) and be back in time for a great lunch by the pool with friends and family, old and new.

Vad som gör detta boende unikt

You can take amazing walks along the ancient Via Appia, enjoy some great food at the villa and in town (Terlizzi is renowned for its butchers and grilled meat), or just sit by the pool with a good book and great view. Sitting on top of a hill, you always have amazing views of the surrounding countryside from the villa. We have connections throughout the town and the region, so we can direct you to the best spots to make your stay extra special. And with enough notice, we can set up all kinds of activities. We also speak Italian and English, so we are always available to help with any reservations and such. When you're all done, at the end of the day, you can enjoy a glass of limoncello or grappa and play a round of Scopa, our favorite Italian card game.
