About the home

Villa Trotta is located on the slope of a hill covered in olive groves and Mediterranean vegetation. It is sun drenched and features a wide view of the surrounding green valley, of the blue of the sea, and far in the horizon, of the entire Golf of Salerno, the Amalfi Coast and Capri.

The villa is surrounded by the green of a 3-hectare private land partially cultivated with olive trees and partially covered by the lush Mediterranean vegetation.

The villa has thick stone walls which maintain the inside naturally fresh even during summer.

Villa Trotta is perfect for families: you will have privacy and a lot of space for children to play and for the peacefulness longed by adults either inside or outside the house. In addition, you will have the fascination of an authentic old Italian countryside house, where all members of the family, grandparents, great-grandparents, children and grandchildren, lived together until the end of the last century.

Further details outdoors:
At Villa Trotta you will have large outdoor spaces available: in front of the main façade of the house there is a large terrace featuring a wide view of the valley and the sea far ahead.

You will enjoy stopping for a second to watch the sunset on this large terrace: you might even catch some magical moments, such as when the sky turns from light blue to deep and intense hue of the same color and the stone façade of the house shines under the razing golden-light beams of the sun. At the same time the orange circle of the sun in the horizon seems to plunge into the sea in a triumph of colorful reflexes in orange, red, and violet…

And when late night falls, turn off all the outside lights of the house for a second and stop to enjoy the Milky Way and the constellations of Ursa Major and Cassiopea, which slowly run across the sky as hours go by …

A second large terrace, just as panoramic as the aforementioned one, is located on the first floor, on the same level of all the bedrooms.

Both the pergola and the garden with a lawn and flowers lie in front of the whole lateral façade of the house, where there are also the patio doors of the kitchen and the dining-room.

The lush kiwi pergola covers a wide patio paved in stone. Under such pergola, you will have a large table with chairs, perfect for an outdoor breakfast in the early fresh hours of the morning.

Besides the garden with flowers, you can also reach the rustic garden with fruit trees: apricots, cherries, kakis, walnuts, grapes, figs, apples, among others. Depending on the season, you and your children will be invited to pick ripe fruits straight from the trees!

Outside the house, along the second lateral façade, you will have a large portico covered by a canopy with shores and roof tiles, under which there is the wood-fired oven and the brick barbecue. You might even have fun while preparing pizza if you want. Necessary firewood is also found in the place.

The Campania region

Campania region is the beginning of the 'mezzogiorno'. Translating as the 'midday' the phrase evokes the sunbaked south. And Campania - with its ancient Greek and Roman towns, rumbling volcanoes and glittering blue coastline, at times evokes Classical Greece as much as modern Italy. You could be a million miles from bureaucratic and businesslike Milan.

Throughout much of its history Campania has been at the centre of Western Civilisation's most significant entities. The area was colonised by Ancient Greeks and was within Magna Græcia, until the Roman Republic began to dominate. During the Roman era the area was highly respected as a place of culture by the emperors, where it balanced Greco-Roman culture. The area had many duchies and principalities during the Middle Ages, in the hands of the Byzantine Empire and some Lombards.

It was under the Normans that the smaller indepedent states were brought together as part of a sizable European kingdom, known as the Kingdom of Sicily, before the mainland broke away to form the Kingdom of Naples. It was during this period that especially elements of Spanish, French and Aragonese culture touched Campania. Later the area became the central part of the Two Sicilies under the Bourbons, until the Italian unification of 1860 when it became part of the new state Italy.

The capital city of Campania is Naples. Campania is rich in culture, especially in regards to gastronomy, music, architecture, archeological and ancient sites such as Pompeii, Herculaneum and Paestum. The name of Campania itself is derived from Latin, as the Romans knew the region as Campania felix, which translates into English as "fortunate countryside". The rich natural sights of Campania make it highly important in the tourism industry, especially along the Amalfi Coast, Cilento Coast, Mount Vesuvius and the island of Capri.

The Castellabate / Perdifumo area

Staying at Villa Trotta you will enjoy the sun, the beach, the sea, the green of the olive trees, the tranquillity of a small and graceful tourist spot. You will be able to see how Italians really live, and enjoy the good local cuisine, based on fish and on the genuine products of the Cilento National Park, such as mozzarella cheese, olive oil and wine.
Villa Trotta is an excellent starting point to visit the Cilento National Park and the archaeological excavations of Pompeii, Herculaneum, Paestum and Velia, the Amalfi Coast and Capri.

The closest train station is Agropoli, at 14 km (9 miles). In the area you will find the tourist ports of San Marco (at 10 km, 6,5 miles) and of Agropoli, and it is possible, during the summer, to board ferries to the Amalfi Coast, to Capri and to other location along the Cilento Coast, as well as to take boat trips, fishing trips or diving trips.

In the summer time, in the villages along the coast it is possible to attend a large number of "sagre" (local outdoor festivals with homemade dishes and live music). Pubs, restaurants and discos stay open until very late at night.

If you are a nature lover, it is possible to book guided hikes along naturalist, historical-cultural or gastronomic trails with the Cilento National Park guides.

Guestbook for Villa Trotta

Linda S., West Hyannis Port, MA, United States - The word that comes to mind for Villa Trotta is "magical". The villa is more awesome than the pictures can portray with views to the Amalfi coast on a clear day. Our group of six had such a wonderful time there.
We took turns cooking each night, even making pizza in the wood-fired oven.The village people couldn't have been nicer, especially at the two alimentari shops where we bought most of our groceries. A favourite place was the large kitchen where we spent several nights lingering over dinner, great wine and conversation.
The weather in late May was a little showery and cool but couldn't dampen our enjoyment of the place, and when the sun was out, the terrace was the best. We can't wait to go back!
All of the rave reviews about your services and properties are not without merit.

Catherine B., Bristol, United Kingdom - There is no way to capture in a photo the absolutely breathtaking views...... and the gardens add so much to it. I must say that the Villa Trotta was not what I was expecting - it was so much better.
We had been traveling for many hours between the plane and the driving and we were all very tired and a little but grumpy, but when we got to the villa it was all forgotten. Though it was after dark when we arrived, even at night the views were overwhelming! And the villa itself was just gorgeous! It was considerably larger than I had imagined and was equipped with anything we needed and then some! Very tastefully decorated too.
It's a little out of the way and is a bit tricky to find, but so very worth it. Absolutely peaceful, yet not too far from the restaurants and shops (maybe 20-30 minutes by car). I will certainly be back again - for a longer stay this time! I 100% whole heartedly recommend the Villa Trotta !
