At the heart of the estate, positioned perfectly for sunset views<\/b>, lies the expansive private garden<\/b> \u2014 a serene landscape of walking paths, terraces, a courtyard<\/b>, and multiple seating areas. More than 100 species of plants<\/b> are carefully tended here, filling the air with the scents of lavender, thyme, rosemary, broom, and myrtle<\/b>.<\/p>\n
Two ancient fig trees<\/b>, each more than 150 years old<\/b>, begin offering their ripened fruit in late August, and guests are warmly invited to enjoy them. Throughout the year, pomegranate, persimmon, and lemon trees<\/b> provide their own seasonal flavors. Two groves of ancient olive trees<\/b> \u2014 more than 25 in total<\/b>, all of a varietal native to the valley \u2014 produce several liters of oil each season. When available, this estate-pressed olive oil<\/b> is stocked in the apartments for your complimentary use.<\/p>\n
The pool<\/b> rests in a reserved, panoramic corner of the property, offering sweeping views<\/b> over the olive-covered hills and the peaceful Valle Umbra<\/b> below. Unusually large for an estate of this scale, the pool measures 6 \u00d7 12 meters (18 \u00d7 36 feet)<\/b> with comfortable depths ranging from 140\u2013150 cm (4.6\u20134.9 feet)<\/b>.<\/p>\n
A spacious pergola<\/b>, shaded by reeds and softened by wisteria, roses, and santolina<\/b>, provides a cool retreat just steps from the water. The area enjoys sun from morning until sunset<\/b>, with lounge chairs, deck chairs, and umbrellas available for your use.<\/p>\n
Relax around the pool, the garden chairs, or in the large jacuzzi<\/b>. One token for complimentary use<\/b> is included with your booking; additional tokens may be purchased upon request. Pool towels<\/b> are provided in all apartments and holiday homes.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][image_with_animation image_url=”6634″ animation=”Fade In” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_content” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_gallery type=”flickity_static_height_style” images=”7871,6837,9251,6643,6641,6639,6663,6733,6729,6731,6631,6839,6841,7873,7875,7877,7879,9260,9348,9350,9352,9354,9356,9358″ flickity_spacing=”default” flickity_controls=”next_prev_arrows_overlaid” flickity_overflow=”hidden” flickity_wrap_around=”wrap” flickity_autoplay=”true” flickity_box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” onclick=”link_no” flickity_img_height=”400″ flickity_autoplay_dur=”3000″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
