Description

Property 112 - SANT'AFATA SUI DUE GOLFI

5 Bedrooms

Location and Surrounding Area
Located near Sorrento, this elegant five-bedroom villa is the perfect place for a stylish break on one of the most famous stretches of coastline in the Mediterranean. The Sorrentine Peninsula juts into the sea like a pointing finger, its shores dotted with Italy’s most spectacular beaches and its bucolic interior shaped by the limestone Monti Lattari. The ancient centre of Sorrento is laid out on a Roman grid of narrow lanes, now lined with restaurants serving pasta and shops selling lemon-themed souvenirs.

Away from the well-trodden paths, there are little-explored nooks and crannies. The vaulted Sedile Dominova, once a meeting space for aristocracy, is now a working-men's club where old-timers while away afternoons playing cards. There are also traditional greengrocers and haberdashers behind wooden shop fronts, the medieval palaces along Via Pietà, the magnificent courtyard of Palazzo Correale, and artisan workshops producing the same wood intarsia for which the town became famous in the 18th century.

If Sorrento becomes overwhelming, the laid-back town of Vico Equense, perched on a sheer tufa cliff just along the coast, makes an attractive base. Beach lovers head for the small pockets of sand tucked into coves at Marina di Vico and Marina d'Aequa, walkers tackle the old footpath to Positano, clinging to the cliffs on the Amalfi coastline, and culture enthusiasts hop on the Circumvesuviana train to explore the ancient sites of Pompeii and Herculaneum, destroyed by the eruption of Vesuvius.

The sight of Positano from a distance is breathtaking. Colour is everywhere, reflecting on the tranquil sea, the silvery pebbled beach, and the gleaming Majolica-domed church of Santa Maria Assunta. The houses, built up from the waterside, are accessible to one another via an endless array of steep stairs and boast pale sorbet colours. In summer, when the sunbeds fill up quickly, take a boat to explore the many small coves up and down the coast.

There’s much to be said for leaving the best until last, and for many, Ravello is the jewel in the coastal crown. If Positano is the glamour-puss of the Amalfi Coast, Ravello is its refined, aristocratic cousin. Nestled high on a hill above the sea, Ravello is famous for its secluded villas, ravishing gardens, and magnificent views. Its romantic sense of faded glory has inspired a steady stream of writers, artists, and musicians since the days of the Grand Tour.
