The Manor House
This is the heart of the villa, the biggest building, where you can find the living area and the majority of the bedrooms. It is spread over two floors: you can access the ground floor from the garden and the swimming pool area, whereas the first floor is connected to the ground floor by an old stone staircase of the 19th century.
Vaulted ceilings and floors in terracotta tiles are the setting of big and welcoming rooms. On the ground floor there is a large living room, a sitting room for even 30 people and a modern and fully equipped kitchen that can meet the needs of everyone. The whole ground floor is directly linked to the swimming pool area and the garden, where you could have lunch or dinner in the open air or simply relax while reading a book under a big and completely furnished shady pergola. On the ground floor you will also find two double bedrooms, one of which has an independent entrance from the garden, with in-suite bathroom with shower or bathtub. On the first floor there are other eight double bedrooms. They are all different from one another, but they all show the traditional charm and elegance that characterize the whole property. You can choose among big bedrooms with living area, rooms with old wrought iron beds and nice romantic mezzanines with original floors in terracotta tiles and wooden beams. The first floor is completed by six bathrooms with shower.
