Nestled among the rolling green hills and pastoral landscapes of the region of Umbria, the charming Villa Al Colle offers an idyllic escape and a perfect spot for a vacation in Italy. A beautiful stone villa, the house is set within lovely grounds, boasts incredible views over the surrounding scenery, and has both amazing amenities and plush, spacious interiors. Sleeping up to 14 guests comfortably in seven bedrooms (each of which boasts an en suite bathroom of its own), this is a great place to get away with some friends or family for a perfect Italian retreat.
Liguria is famous for her gorgeous coastline and it has made the region, particularly the Cinque Terre area, one of the most desirable tourist destinations in Italy. Impossibly scenic, this is a coastline made up of dramatic craggy rocks set over rich, jewel-tone aquamarine waters. There are some charming beaches but rather than long sandy strands, Liguria abounds in striking swimming spots. Here you might not have soft sands to lounge about on but you will find incredibly romantic places from which to jump into those stunning waters. And if you have found your villa in Liguria and are looking for a particularly lovely swimming spot throughout your vacation, then we cannot recommend the Grotta di Lord Byron highly enough.
Leonardo da Vinci famously spent years in Milan working under the Duke of Milan, Ludovico Sforza, painting, designing floats and pageants for special occasions, creating equestrian monuments for the city, and more. His mark, therefore, can be felt in various spots all throughout the city to this day and those who find a villa in Lombardy and visit Milan or those who book a vacation rental in Milan itself who have a penchant for all things Leonardo and the Renaissance, will find plenty to intrigue them from museums to artworks. However, the most unique trace of Leonardo that remains in the city today has to be Leonardo’s Vineyard.
Venice is famously beautiful for her iconic canals but also for the incredible buildings reflected in the waters of the lagoon and set against this unique landscape. Those who find a vacation rental in Venice should take time to really pay attention to the sumptuous architectural gems that abound throughout this magical part of Italy...
Not only are many buildings in Venice constructed in strange and specific ways to fit the topography of the city but they are also a wonderful blend of styles and influences due to its location, which was once the, “gateway to the East”. Peoples from all over the world have come to, and passed through Venice, for centuries upon centuries and brought ideas and knowledge with them.
