Seashells & Bougainvillea

Seashells & Bougainvillea: Campania

When you think of a dream escape to Sorrento, you probably imagine a home like this. A stunning traditional villa perched on a hill, this is the kind of holiday home you’ll remember for years to come. The villa can be found in San Montano, just 4 kilometres from Sorrento. A former fishing village, this charming locale is now known for its lemon trees – it’s an idyllic setting for a memorable family holiday.

Wake up to warm Sorrento sunshine streaming onto your pillow, and step straight outside onto the terrace. Drink in the glorious views of the coast and the island of Capri, which serves as a stunning backdrop. Your days here can be spent revelling in the sunny weather, dozing beneath a blue sky, and dining alfresco. Children will love the play area, while grown-ups will enjoy sipping Italian wine on the terrace as the sun is setting.

When the sun is scorching, you need only stroll down the staircase to reach the beach. Paddle in the shallows, search for seashells and admire the boats sailing by in the distance. However you spend your time here, you’ll be thrilled to have such a pretty place to call home.
