Home description
The owners have recently renovated and refurbished the house. It contains four large sized bedrooms, one with a large balcony suitable for private sunbathing and gazing towards the sea on the horizon. It is ideal for two families.
The villa contains a private pool with sun loungers, a large outside BBQ and its own authentic pizza oven.
However the real draw of the area are the Caribbean-like beaches that are scattered everywhere along this picturesque coast. Perfect for young children the beaches include Chia (voted in the Daily Telegraph May 2008 as one of the world's Best Beaches), Teulada, Nora, Santa Marghareta di Pula.
As with many places in Italy the food and wine is also fresh and tasty - but unlike other areas the prices are significantly cheaper. Fresh fruit is available from the road sides throughout the year with peaches and figs particularly popular in the summer months. Local red wine is very good and available to buy by the litre for €1.5
Finally for those with young children there is a water park (www.blufan.it) less than 10mins drive away, while the ancient capital city of Cagliari is a 25min drive.

The Sardinia region
Sardinia is a relatively well kept secret amongst British holiday makers. So, although it has beaches to rival any in the Mediterranean there are hardly any British holiday makers in the area.
Our villa is located in the south west of the island, roughly 25min drive from the capital city and airport of Cagliari. We are located at the foothills of the mountains yet only 10mins by car from beaches and historical Roman sites. The views from the villa really are spectacular - both during the daytime and the evening when the stars are very bright.
The season runs from April through to October - although we've been there outside these months and it was still considerably warmer than northern Europe. Christmas day last year saw temperatures of 20degrees! In July and August expect 30-33degrees each day.
Pula Sardinia area
Pula is a pretty town just a short ride away. It has the classic church in the town square and a piazza that often has live music in the summer months. There are a handful of great restaurants each serving the catch of the day - sea bass, orata and lobster are common on menus. Despite being a small town there are at least 4 gelaterias selling home-made ice cream (1Euro a scoop)
The coastline from Pula heading west is stunning with large beaches and smaller inlets to be found dotted everywhere. All the beaches have white sand and crystal clear sea......they are ideal for children.
For the more adventurous there are lots and lots of walking tours/hikes in the mountains to the north of our villa and for those keen on golf, Is Molas is 15min away (a very well known course that has held the Italian Open). Other activities such as horse riding, sailing, kite surfing and kayaking are available within a short ride.
How to get there
Easyjet (Budget Airline) flies direct from London (Luton) to Cagliari (flying time is c.2hrs20mins).
