Nestled on a hill with breathtaking views over the surrounding valley, this marvelous eight-bedroom castle is perfectly situated to explore the region’s cultural highlights and most striking natural wonders. Granting a calm mabience, the property is just a stone’s throw away from the town of Treviso, also known as “Little Venice”. Famous for its radicchio, this lovely medieval town features buildings with decoratively painted façades and a network of waterways deriving from the River Sile.
The property is also a few kilometers from the charming town of Vicenza, well-known for the buildings of Andrea Palladio, Italy’s most prominent architect. Inspired by the style and proportion of the buildings of ancient Rome, in 1580 Palladio designed the Teatro Olimpico, the oldest roofed theater in the world. The scenery, designed by Vincenzo Scamozzi for the first production, creates an illusion of long streets receding to a distant horizon through trompe d’oeil effects.
The castle is also a short distance from Padua, a lively city with an arcaded center and three handsome market squares: Piazza delle Erbe sells fruit and vegetables, Piazza dei Signori supplies household goods and Piazza dei Frutti offers both. Padua’s famous university, founded in the 13th century, accounts for the town’s youthful population. But the main attraction is the Cappella degli Scrovegni, a chapel home to a remarkable fresco cycle completed in two years by Giotto.
Water has always been part of people’s lives in Veneto, and this especially concerns Venice, which is built on it. Venice is a unique gem sparkling in its lagoon, home to valuable works of art representing the wealth and power of a great seafaring republic. Captivating for adults, inspiring and mysterious for children, Venice is a city where everyone goes by water on gondolas and where Carnival has made disguise de rigeur: wear a cloak and a mask and play hide and seek.
