Perched on a green hillside on the south coast of the Sorrento Peninsula and overlooking the glorious azure sea is sophisticated Aldana. The surrounding area is ideal for hill and coastal hiking. The pretty coastal town of Sorrento, famous for its lemons, is around a 15-minute drive away.

You'll look forward to coming back to four-bedroom Aldana to relax after a long day of sightseeing with the family. The interior is elegant yet comfortable and inviting, with a fireplace, quality furniture and beautiful hardwood floors in the open-plan living/dining room. Tiles in the fully-equipped kitchen add character and a traditional Italian feel.

Three of the four bedrooms have either a queen-size or king-size bed, with a fabulous four-poster in one room that opens out onto a terrace with Jacuzzi. The fourth bedroom is ideal for children as it has two single beds. Two bedrooms have a luxurious ensuite bathroom, perfect for unwinding with a long soak in the bath before a restful night's sleep.

Many of the living spaces and bedrooms have doors that allow the sea air to flow through, with terraces for morning coffee or evening cocktails. There's no shortage of space for relaxing and socialising in the vast grounds and gardens either. Dine al fresco on a romantic covered terrace and watch sunsets over the sea as you take a dip in the gorgeous infinity pool.

Aldana's privileged position isn't just limited to the stunning sea views it affords. It also comes complete with an array of amenities nearby, such as the lovely local restaurants and the charming little villages which dot the area. The coastline close to the villa is rather rocky, but sandy beaches in and around Sorrento are only a short drive away.
