Extra Information: 

No Kids: There is a strict "no children" rule at the Villa for any child under the age of 16. Not anti-children, but merely limiting the risk of injury to your little ones, due to the many changing levels of land, steep slopes, low-level stone-clad pools, and hard surfaces everywhere. For this reason, they prefer to keep the house as an ‘adults-only’ option.

Electric car charging: 4KW connection for overnight charging, available at an extra cost. You will also find fast chargers in most supermarket car parks and village car parks, as well as motorway service stations too. The nearest one to the Villa is in Piazza D. Alighieri in Calamandrana, a five-minute drive away.

Pets are not allowed: Whilst the garden and land surrounding the Villa are fenced to stop much of the larger wildlife such as deer and boar entering, it is not 100% secure and they don’t want to have any escaped/lost dogs or injured wildlife.

Location: Don’t search the address with Google Maps as Google shows the wrong location (a problem for many in rural Italy) so please use the links and coordinates we will provide
