LUXURY HOLIDAY VILLAS IN ITALY, TURKEY AND SPAIN

The stunning coastal Villa Adele is built into the mountainside within the boundary of the national park and benefits from awe inspiring sea views and a truly peaceful location.  Mount Circeo has a legendary past as it is said that this is where the Greek hero Odysseus landed, ate sacred cattle and had his men transformed by the witch Circe into animals. Stories such as these need to be taken with a large pinch of salt but some parts of the story are clearly more real than others; the beautiful countryside, the soft sandy beaches, the fabulous bays and the fertile land. Terraced hills now form part of the national park of Circeo; a land of sand dunes, rolling hills and verdant mountainsides.

The main villa with its whitewashed walls and cool tiled floors is the perfect retreat from the summer sun. Its bright and airy interiors with their modern soft furnishings the perfect place to relax and unwind after a day spent sightseeing or simply as a balm from the hectic pace of the outside world. Within the terraced garden there are two small guest cottages. The stepped gardens are built around two main terraces, the upper terrace contains the swimming pool, sunbathing area and gazebo; the lower terrace leading from the living room and kitchen has a vine covered pergola with large tables for al fresco family dining. Villa Adele is a true home from home in the sun with marvelous sea views, close to town and yet far enough away that one finds all the peace and quiet one could ever wish for.

Past clients have walked into San Felice for dinner. Others prefer to enjoy the benefits of an air conditioned drive. Outside of August the road is not well travelled and the sound of birdsong is your constant companion. A stay at Villa Adele will be enhanced by a visit to the Pontine Islands, a stunning archipelago of volcanic mountains with pristine beaches surrounded by turquoise blue sparkling seas. The islands may be reached by an early morning ferry departing daily from the marina in S. Felice.
