Something Rather Beguiling

Something Rather Beguiling: Campania

It may well be the proximity to the Gulf of Salerno and the Amalfi Coast that initially draws you to this villa, but the home itself will surely charm you into making a return visit.

The reason for that is that this is an address in which it's remarkably easy to relax. Out in the large garden, for instance, countless hours will be passed either in the waters of the swimming pool or soaking up the rays on the surrounding terrace. You'll also be quickly smitten with the rooftop terrace complete with a view of the sea and the isle of Capri in the distance.

There are further perks inside too, not least in the spa room. Here, you'll find everything from a small gym and Jacuzzi to a sauna and pool table. As if that wasn't enough, there's a hydromassage bathtub in one of the ensuites, plus lots of light-filled communal areas in which to gather everybody together. It's true that the colour scheme of bright tones might not be to everybody's taste, but there's a certain charm to it, we believe.

It's no overstatement to say that this home sits right in the middle of one of the most picturesque parts of Italy and it's easy to discover white sand beaches, idyllic coastal towns and the sprawling Monti Lattari Regional Park. The centre of Sant’Agata Sui Due Golfi is less than 500 metres from the front door, too.
