Il Castellaccio 8

The first documented historical information about Villa Il Castellaccio dates back to 1074, the year of the first foundation of the building. We are in the hinterland of the province of Ravenna where the gentle hills give slowly way to the Apennines that divide Emilia-Romagna from Tuscany. Thanks to its location, guests will enjoy unforgettable panoramas. The sun rises above the Romagna Apennines to heat the pool and sets behind the Tuscan Apennines that stretch endlessly in front of the house. Right from the first impression, the central theme follwed for the realisation of the house is evident, favouring contact with nature and allowing guests to spend their time mainly outdoors. An elegant portico in front of the pool invites guests to relax and admire the sensational view while sipping an aperitif or enjoying a romantic meal. The property consists of a main house and an annex.
