Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This converted mill is charmingly modern, with hints of its history still present – our favourite being the original kitchen which dates back to the 4th century A.D. This stylish villa offers a host of amenities too, including a private pool, a pizza oven, a daily cleaning service and complimentary grocery delivery on arrival. If you’re visiting as a large group, you’ll enjoy the layout here, with a main house and two separate annexes. The outdoor areas are the perfect spots to come together after some one-on-one time, especially to share a chef-prepared dinner alfresco, which your host is happy to arrange upon request. And when you’re ready to explore, you’ll find hiking routes and vineyards within easy driving distance.
