Description
Villa La Quadra is a luxury villa for eight people. It has a swimming pool and four hectares of fenced park lying at the foot of the Euganean Hills. Every detail of the villa suggests cosiness, refinement and good taste. The outdoor spaces include a large swimming pool surrounded by shaded spots and equipped with tables and chairs, a veranda overlooking a rose garden that is perfect for al fresco meals, and a huge garden with impressive art installations.
The interiors reveal the owner’s fascination with contemporary art. Every room is decorated with striking pieces of art. There are also comforts of a luxury house such as a dolby surround sound, a television room with a huge cinema screen and a gym room. The villa is a reinvigorating place for body and soul, and a unique place to experience Veneto.
The famous art cities of Padua, Vicenza and Venice are only a few kms away, which gives guests the opportunity to see most of the region with short and non-tiring daily trips. Guests can also visit the most important sites on the Euganen hill, all located within 10 to 20 minutes from the house. Particularly worth a visit are the medieval villages Arquà Petrarca, Montagnana, Este and Monselice, Praglia Abbey, Villa dei Vescovi, Villa Beatrice d’Este, the garden of Villa Valsanzibio, S. Martino castle and Catajo castle.
The region is known for its culinary tradition and extended viticulture. Taste delicious dishes such as homemade bigoli (a kind of pasta) with duck or rabbit ragout, risi e bisi (rice with peas), baccalà alla vicentina (very tasty codfish cooked in a creamy sauce), and stop for a tasting in one of the many excellent wineries producing Merlot, Cabernet, Chardonnay and Pinot wines.
