Description
Casa Albizia enjoys a rural setting down a narrow lane within the picturesque region of Masse Lubrense, on the Sorrentine Peninsula. There’s a hamlet just two kilometres away where you’ll find your nearest restaurant, shop and café. The popular coastal resort of Marina del Cantone is a short drive (6km) and of course Sorrento (9km) is also within reach for fabulous day trips and cultural discoveries.
The rugged terrain and tree-clad hills of Masse Lubrense provide wonderful walking opportunities, virtually from Casa Albizia’s door. Find your way onto ancient mule tracks and pathways between villages and along the coast for spectacular views and rural escapism.
Sleeping up to twelve guests, Casa Albizia comprises two separate houses, both self-sufficient and for your convenience, parking spaces are provided for three cars. This is the perfect villa for two or more families travelling together, or a large group of friends.
A stone archway links the two, as does the lawned garden. Both houses have a modern, well-equipped kitchen, welcoming lounge areas and fresh, modern décor. The main house features three, beautiful double bedrooms boasting contemporary furnishings and some en-suite shower rooms. The second house has two double bedrooms, a double sofa bed, attractively tiled bathrooms and that essential, Italian ingredient; a pizza oven. There are five bedrooms and five bathrooms in total, and Casa Albizia seemingly provides picture-postcard views from pretty much all of them.
The lounge areas are open-plan and lead out to the garden and private pool. Charming details to found in this relaxing space include a pool-side shower for cooling off between sunbathing sessions, Mediterranean palms, terracotta planters and a pretty pathway which leads you enticingly towards the al fresco kitchen, built-in barbecue, another pizza oven and a covered dining terrace for twelve.
Running alongside your garden is an ancient, pergola-covered lemon grove and the zesty aroma of lemons – during the long, hot, lazy afternoons by the pool – will no doubt be a take-home memory of your holiday here. As will the views of verdant hillsides, terracotta rooftops and blue sea in the distance. /n Security deposit /n €200 charged to clients’ credit card by the owner before arrival and refunded two weeks after departure, subject to full inspection. /n Arrival time /n 3:00 p.m. - 10:00 p.m. (out of schedule arrivals will be charged at €30). /n Departure time /n 10:00 a.m. /n Energy costs included? /n Yes. /n Linen & towels included? /n Yes. /n Pets welcome? /n Not allowed. /n End of stay cleaning included? /n Extra €200, paid locally.
