The entire residence has been carefully renovated to combine contemporary comfort with traditional architectural features, including original frescoes and handcrafted finishes. With contemporary style throughout, the villa offers five double bedrooms, spacious living areas, lift access to the upper floor. Outside there is a panoramic outdoor setting with a pool, al fresco dining and sweeping views over the vineyards of the Palazzo di Varignana estate. Guests staying here benefit from discounted access to the estate’s spa, sports courts and wine experiences, all within 2 km of the villa.
