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.
At Villa Trotta you will have large outdoor spaces available: in front of the main façade of the house there is a pool and large terrace, both 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. Villa Trotta was built taking into consideration the sloping land of the place. The house is two-storey high.
