The North East Italy / Veneto region


Veneto is a region full of history and tradition, great also for local food and wine production. Many interesting sites to be visited are Venice, Vicenza, Padova, the Lake Garda. You will find countryside, mountains and seaside, lakes and sea beaches.
The Verona area
Verona is one of the main tourist destinations in north-eastern Italy, thanks to its artistic heritage, several annual fairs (like Vinitaly, Fieracavalli, Marmomacc and many others), shows and operas, such as the Opera Festival in the Arena, the ancient amphitheatre built by the Romans.
Because of the value and importance of its many historical buildings, mostly of Roman and Medieval ages, Verona has been named a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Moreover, Verona is the setting of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet.
Verona's Natural history museum contains one of the most valuable collections of fossils and archaeological remains of Europe. Castelvecchio Museum features a collection of sculptures, statues and paintings in a magnificent castle built in 1354-1356.

We stayed one week at Villa Sogara. We were with our three children, with friends and their 2 children. The villa is very nice, extremely large which helps when you are as numerous as we were.... more |

Villa Sogara is a beautiful and unique property, a bit outside of the city, but that was just fine with us. Nestled among vineyards, olive trees and winding roads, it was a charming escape into the daily life of the Veneto. Tommaso and Ela are the most charming and down-to-earth inn-keepers/new friends one could ask for, and the view they offered into the villa's and their family's history in the area surpasses anything that could be gained from a history book. Combine Renaissance beauty and elegance with country home comfort and up-to-the minute, modern amemities and conveniences---and you have the ingredients for a perfect home-away-from-home. And then there are the cuckoos that call softly from the treetops all day long.....already plotting my return! Response: Hi! Thank you very much for your nice words, it's always a pleasure to host gentle and sensible people like you, not just guests, but new friends! We are glad that you had a good time at Villa Sogara, and remember that our doors are always open for you! Looking forward to seeing you soon, many thanks, and best regards, Ela and Tommaso |
Guestbook for Villa Sogara
Our family of ten have just returned from Villa Sogara. Words cannot begin to express the marvelous week we spent there. The villa, filled with family treasures and history., has every modern convenience and has been beautifully and thoughtfully restored by its charming and generous owners.
While the hills and the vineyards enchant, Verona is a short distance away and good roads lead to Venice, Padua, lake Garda and Forte di Marmi .... a great location for exploring!
The property is well maintained, clean, delightful and whose hosts become friends.A swimming pool, an elevator, washing machine and dryer, internet access,and a microwave are some of the amenities.
We were sad to leave and hope to return!!! - Nonna Camilla, Albany, New York USA

Villa Sogara is full of charm and character. You can immediately feel it was a happy, lived-in house belonging to a family who loved the villa and loved each other. You are in the country with interesting views over vineyards and hills. There is bird song, peace and quiet the whole time. One morning we could spot a pheasant in our garden. Wonderful! However, within a few minutes’ drive you can be in the city of Verona with all its cultural, sightseeing and shopping offerings. There is a large Shopping centre halfway to Verona which is very convenient for last minute shopping, just a break or a stroll in the many shops. We found it very useful, both for shopping and as a landmark - impossible to get lost. There are many interesting, genuine and reasonably priced small restaurants and pizzerias around - the ones that ordinary tourists never know about - so, ask Tommaso and Ela for suggestions. Pizzeria Lui e Lei took our order by phone on the way home and all we had to do was collect the pizzas.
The Villa: You will find the best of ancient and most modern, from a charming, fantastic countryhouse kitchen, to a lift (which we only used twice, to get the luggage inside and outside. The stairs are so easy to climb), to internet access. The bathrooms are all well equipped and modern and the water is always hot when you need it. The furniture is lovely and unique and there is a good supply of high quality hangers (wood). The cleaning is efficient and nonintrusive.
We toured Verona, Vicenza, Lake Garda, Sirmione, Maranello (try the Ferrari test drive if you get a chance - thrilling!), Modena, Padova and Venice in the 8 days we stayed. We found the Villa ideally situated to do this – in the countryside but boasting fantastic road access to everywhere you want to go.
Our hosts – whom we did not know at all previously – welcomed us to their Villa as old friends would. This made all the difference – we felt that they would be there for us should anything happen or should we need help for whatever reason. Both Tommaso and Ela speak perfect English. We never felt intruded on our privacy. Bill the dog, was a great hit with the children. He lives by the main gate providing guarding services but kept away from the Villa and guests.
Our Party: 5 adults and 6 children aging between 2 and 11. We had a great time and strongly recommend this Villa to parties who desire to tour the wonderful cities around Verona coming back to wonderful accommodation.

We had 10 people in Villa Sogara for a week. It was so delightful and relaxing by the pool overlooking the vineyards that we almost didn't want to sightsee! Tomasso and Ela were the most gracious hosts, even arranging for a visit to the neighboring family-owned winery. They are happy and willing to share their knowledge of the area. Ela is an amazing chef, and a special dinner prepared by her for your guests is a must! Everything is easily accessible by bus, train or car - Verona, Vicenza, Lake Garda, wineries, and of course Venice. This are cost-competitive accommodations in a perfect setting.
