Casa Virgilio is a large home which is comfortable and welcoming. With a wealth of doors and windows overlooking the garden, the villa is flooded with natural light.

Also, on the ground floor, you will find the fully-fitted, country-style kitchen and a smaller kitchenette in the tower building.

When you wish to retire for the evening or for an afternoon nap, you have a choice of seven bedrooms. One of these rooms is located in the tower and has an en-suite bathroom with a bath for a long soak after a busy day out.
